H.M. T.B. 66 was one of 53 first-class torpedo boats of the 125 Footer class.
Service
She commissioned on 18 July to participate in the Annual Manoeuvres of 1894 as one of three boats in the Kingstown Division of the Blue Side.[6]
In 1895, she was one of twenty-three torpedo boats of at least 125 feet in length stationed in Portsmouth along with four smaller ones.[7]
She commissioned on 8 July to participate in the Annual Manoeuvres of 1896.[8]
Around 1906-1907, with the issuance of torpedo boat numbers to the first of the Cricket class torpedo boats, the existing Torpedo Boats numbered 25 to 79 had a "0" prepended to their number. This vessel, therefore, became T.B. 066.[9]
Sold to Ward, Hayle for scrapping on 30 June, 1920.[10]
