Alfred Mylne the First
David Gray of Ace Marine has written a nice letter to intheboatshed.net:
‘Dear Sir:
‘I have had a look at your website and it looks terrific. I thought it might be appropriate to let you know about the business of A Mylne & Co, the oldest yacht design business in the world that has never ceased production. We took it over last April, and have launched a website at www.mylne.com.
We are anxious to contact owners of any Mylne-designed yacht.
We are also digitising the entire archive of 10000 drawings and over 400 designs such that they can be readily searched and accessed by enthusiasts for restoration or new build.
‘Best regards and happy new year for 2008
‘David Gray’

To whet your appetite, here’s a quote from the History section of the Mylne site: Continue reading “Revitalised Mylne company digitises drawings and seeks owners”
