Historical Context

Design 166 was developed by A. Mylne & Co. in 1909, a year of significant activity in the office. The opening decade of the twentieth century saw Mylne establishing himself as a prolific designer of yachts ranging from large seagoing cruisers to modest coastal craft. The commission for the Aurora & Brisa class—of which Ceibo was built—demonstrates the firm's growing international reach. The placement of this build with an Argentine constructor indicates both the quality of Mylne's reputation and the practical reality that patrons and builders outside Britain often preferred to construct locally while working to a proven Scottish design. This pattern would continue throughout the office's long history.
