Yacht Design

New commissions, design development, and archive-informed restoration design — drawing on over 125 years of hull design precedent.

Our Approach

A design tradition built on performance and proportion

Alfred Mylne designed his first yacht at twenty-four. In the fifty years that followed, his office produced over six hundred vessels — each one developed with the same conviction that beauty and performance are not in conflict but the same thing expressed differently.

That tradition continues. Every new design we produce draws on an archive of original plans, correspondence, and construction records stretching back to 1896 — a body of knowledge that no amount of computational analysis can fully replicate.

What we offer

New Commissions

Full design service from concept brief to complete construction package, including lines plan, sail plan, construction drawings, and specification. Every design is developed from first principles, informed by more than a century of Mylne design history.

Design Development

Evolving or reinterpreting an existing design — whether a Mylne original or another pedigree hull — to meet contemporary requirements while retaining the character that makes it worth building.

Restoration Design

Working from original archive drawings to produce technically accurate restoration specifications. We can trace surviving plans, identify construction methods, and advise on appropriate materials and scantlings for period-correct restoration.

Specifications & Documentation

Detailed technical specifications, weight studies, stability calculations, and sail plans prepared to the standard required by classification societies and experienced builders.

The Archive

Six hundred designs. Every one still in the archive.

We can trace surviving drawings for the majority of Mylne designs, and use them as the starting point for new work, restoration specifications, or provenance research.
