Historical Context

Design 166 was created by A. Mylne & Co. in 1909, during a period of productive output from the Glasgow-based firm. The design was titled Aurora & Brisa, suggesting it may have been intended for, or resulted in, multiple builds. The commissioning of a Mylne design by a South American builder indicates the growing reputation of Scottish yacht design in international maritime circles during the early twentieth century. A. Mylne & Co. continued to produce designs across a broad spectrum of vessel types and sizes throughout this era.
