Service
She commissioned on 18 July to participate in the Annual Manoeuvres of 1894 as one of three T.Bs. of the Piel Division of the Blue Side.[6]
In 1895, she was one of eight large torpedo boats of at least 125 feet length and two smaller ones stationed in Chatham.[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. 074.[9]
Sold to Willoughby of Plymouth on 27 January, 1920.[10]
