Service

After leaving the Nore in early November, 1901 to relieve the destroyer Icarus on the Pacific Station, Shearwater ran aground in the Strait of Magellan on 19 January, 1902. Although a Court of Enquiry assigned no blame for the incident, the Admiralty scolded navigational lieutenant Conron.[7]
