Historical Context
Design 41 was produced during the formative years of A. Mylne & Co., which was established in 1896 and became one of Scotland's leading yacht design offices. The 1890s and early 1900s saw Mylne developing a diverse portfolio of cruising and racing designs, many built on the Clyde by established yards including McAllister at Dumbarton. Vagrant exemplifies the working cruising yacht of moderate size typical of this period, built to enduring standards of wooden construction. The design reflects Mylne's early approach to balancing seaworthiness with practical sailing qualities for yachts intended for both leisure and competitive purposes.
