H.M. T.B. 69 (1885)

H.M. T.B. 69 was one of 53 first-class torpedo boats of the 125 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. 069.[7]

Service

In 1895, she was one of four first-class torpedo boats stationed at Bermuda.[8]
