Description
‘Focsle Rose’ is a Sealion 42 displacement motor cruiser of a round bilge design with a directional keel, based on a steel hull with teak superstructure. Although she is sea boat and well-travelled around the Mediterranean, her dimensions enable her to navigate the French canals, which she has done more than once.
The Sealion 42 was produced by Meakes of Marlow which was founded in 1886 as Meakes & Redknap, and ending up as just J.G.Meakes Ltd. The company lasted almost 100 years before selling up for redevelopment of the site. In 1964 the total price of £15,000 including luxury fittings, you certainly wouldn’t get much boat for that amount these days!
