Historical Context
Design 166 was created during A. Mylne & Co.'s mature period, when the Glasgow-based office was producing both custom designs and a range of catalogue types for amateur builders and small-scale boatyards. The Aurora & Brisa design reflects the practical aesthetics and engineering that characterised Mylne's approach to modest-sized yachts. The early 20th century saw sustained demand for affordable, manageable sailing craft; Mylne's catalogue designs served this market across Britain and beyond. The survival of Itagua to the present day indicates the durability of the original design and the quality of construction, though the specific boatyard responsible remains undocumented.
