Historical Context

Design 166 (Aurora & Brisa) was created by A. Mylne & Co. in 1909, during the office's early period of operation. The design appears to have been developed for small to moderate-sized cruising yachts suited to Scottish and Northern European waters. A. Mylne & Co., established in 1896, built a reputation for practical, seaworthy designs across a range of sizes and types. The Aurora & Brisa series, of which Cruz del Sur formed part, represents the office's work in smaller yacht design during the Edwardian era. Specific details of how many yachts were built to this design, or in which yards, remain incomplete in the current record.
