Infomation

Majestic, formerly Magnolia, was manufactured in 1902 by Samuel Saunders of Saunders Roe for the family of Jesse Boot (The Chemists.) She is manufactured in Consuta development which is very features and is why she is still so strong today. {The Consuta Steam Launch is one of the few other vessels manufactured in this method.}
Starting out in 1902 with family outings and day trips along the River Thames for Jesse Boot and his family followed by umpiring at Henley Royal Regatta and the Annual Oxford vs Cambridge Boat Race, Majestic has not strayed far from her roots, in fact, each year Majestic is still in use at Henley Royal Regatta transporting guests to and from Temple Island to watch the racing and whilst no longer umpiring at the Oxford vs Cambridge Boat Race, Majestic can still be seen on the Thames in good working order.
Majestic has served her present proprietors well, however,due to a change in the commercial regulations on the Tidal Thames, it is now time for Majestic to retire to private proprietorship or a commercial non tidal based leisure business where she meets all regulations for both private and passenger use.
She has been the loving care of her present proprietors for well over 25 years who are sad to see her go but the fresh rules dictate that only a private proprietor can use her anywhere on the Thames thus she cannot stay their tidal thames fleet. She has had a few engines over the years and is currently tailored with a gasoline Mercruiser 165:250 cu in GM (4.0litre) 165hp straight 6, which was remanufactured in 2014
We are looking forward to helping a fresh proprietor take control of this very beautiful launch.
