H.M. T.B. 76 was one of 53 first-class torpedo boats of the 125 Footer class.

Service

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.[5]

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. 076.[6]

Sold to Ward, Hayle on 30 June, 1920.[7]
