A new website dedicated to celebrated Scottish yacht designer Alfred Mylne has been launched, bringing more than a century of yacht design history together in one online archive. The new platform, Mylne.com, provides access to a growing collection of yacht records, original drawings and historical material linked to one of the most influential names in yacht design.
For more than 130 years, the Mylne name has been associated with elegant and seaworthy yachts, many of which continue to sail, race, cruise, and undergo restoration projects around the world.
At the heart of the new website is the Mylne Archive, which contains details of 795 yacht designs alongside thousands of original drawings and a developing register of surviving vessels. The archive aims to provide a single online resource documenting Alfred Mylne's design legacy and the continuing story of the yachts that bear his name.
Visitors can explore information on surviving Mylne yachts, browse archival material, and discover restoration projects and historical records from around the world. The website also brings together stories, plans and original documentation from one of the world's most significant collections of classic yacht design material.
Project organisers say the archive is intended as a living record rather than a static historical collection, reflecting the fact that many Mylne-designed yachts remain active today. "The story of Alfred Mylne is still being written," the project team says. "We invite you to explore it."
The new website is now live and available to yacht owners, historians, restorers and enthusiasts interested in the enduring legacy of Scotland's renowned yacht designer.
