Historical Context
Uladh was built during the early 1920s, a period of consolidation for A. Mylne & Co. following the First World War. The Glynn design (274) had been developed in 1920, capturing the office's approach to small, economical cruising designs. This era saw significant demand for modest yachts suitable for owner-sailed operation, reflecting both post-war recreational revival and the practical economics of boat ownership. Bute Slip Dock's involvement places the yacht within a network of Scottish builders who regularly engaged with Mylne designs, particularly for smaller vessels intended for Clyde and west coast waters.
