H.M. T.B. 24 (1884)
Builder: Yarrow[1]
Launched: 1884[2]
Sold: 1904[3]

H.M. T.B. 24 was one of 4 first-class torpedo boats of the 113 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. 024.[4]

Service

In 1895, she was one of four T.B.s of less than 125 feet in length and thirteen longer ones stationed in Devonport.[5]
