Kelin, Bottomly and Baird ‘was orginally based in Scotland and had been a ‘manufacturer and supplier of technical equipment designed by the great Lord Kelvin of Largs, famous for designing the Kohin temperature scale. The Hughes farnly were originally clock makers in the East End of London who orogressod into supphing sextants and chronometers to ships sailng into the Thames. The twa companies joined together in the late 1940s to form Kelvin and Hughes eventually becoming Kein Hughes Limited in the early 1950s, Kelvin Hughes products are installed in 2 wide range of ‘commercial vessels, luxury yachts and cruise liners, including the new Queen Mary 2. They are also in service wih over 30 navies around the world, including every United Kingdom Royal Navy warship.
