Historical Context

Design 166 was created in 1909, during A. Mylne & Co.'s early period as one of Scotland's leading yacht design offices. The design was offered under the working title Aurora & Brisa, suggesting it may have been a stock or semi-standard design intended for multiple builds. The modest dimensions and apparent simplicity of the design reflect the practical requirements of early 20th-century leisure sailing and local cruising. The absence of surviving documentation for Bipiry herself—whether she was the first, only, or one of several hulls built to this design—reflects both the passage of time and the informal record-keeping practices common in small-scale yacht building of that era.
