Radio Museum gives
"Electronic Laboratories Ltd; Fleets Lane, Poole, Dorset BH15 36W, England
Brand: Seafarer"

They made all types of electronic marine equipment, echo sounders speed logs, radios, RDF equipment.

I believe the early marine VHF band was 50kHz channel spacing, it was then changed into 25kHz spacing to accommodate all the international channels. So I don't think it would be advisable to use either the RT50 or RT100 transceivers today.
