H.M.S. Bonetta was one of twenty-four gunboats of the Ant class. She was sold before the First World War.
Service
In 1903 she was serving as a tender to Defiance at Devonport.[3]
In July 1908 she was detailed to assist in efforts to salvage the wrecked second class protected cruiser Gladiator.[4]
She was sold out of service on 21 January, 1909 and became the civilian salvage vessel Disperser. She was lost off Whitby on 8 February, 1934 during a gale while being towed by the tugboat Trover with the loss of one member of the crew from injuries.[5][6]
