Service
In February 1908 Ettrick was one of seven "Rivers" of the Nore Destroyer Flotilla taken into Sheerness Dockyard for refitting, during which time three 12-pdr guns were mounted in lieu of five 6-pdrs, which were deemed too light to be useful.[7]
In mid-1913, she was in the Ninth Destroyer Flotilla, a patrol flotilla.[8]
On perhaps 15 February, 1918, Ettrick made an "unsatisfactory attack" on an enemy submarine while escorting a convoy under the escort's Senior Officer, Lieutenant R.N.R. Alphonse Martin Tulloch. Tulloch was removed from command and incurred their Lordships "severe displeasure."[9]
