Historical Context

Design 166 was created in 1909, during a prolific period for A. Mylne & Co. The office, established in 1896 by Alfred Mylne, had by this date established a reputation for practical cruising and racing yachts of varied size. The Aurora & Brisa design typifies the smaller craft that formed part of Mylne's portfolio—vessels suited to owner-sailors seeking seaworthy, economical designs for British home waters. The survival of Jade into the modern era underscores the durability of designs from this foundational decade of the practice.
