H.M. T.B. 21 (1884)
Builder: Thornycroft[1]
Launched: 1884[2]
Sold: 1907[3]
H.M. T.B. 21 was one of four first-class torpedo boats of the 113 Footer class.

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. 021.[4]

Service

In 1886, she was in the Mediterranean.[5]

In 1895, she was one of ten first-class T.B.s stationed in Malta.[6]
