Historical Context
Design 166 was created in 1909, a period when A. Mylne & Co. was producing a diverse range of sailing yachts across different size classes. The small cruiser or day-sailer category was popular among owners seeking practical, economical vessels for recreation and coastal exploration. The Edwardian era saw sustained demand for such designs in Scotland and northern England. Mylne's office maintained meticulous design records, but not all vessels built to these designs were subsequently tracked. The absence of construction and current-status data for Chacay reflects the fragmentary nature of yacht records from this period, particularly for smaller, private vessels.
