H.M.S. Hebe was completed as a torpedo gunboat, but was converted along with her sister Onyx to submarine depot ship before the Great War.

Service

Hebe converted to a depot ship in 1909.[7]

C 2's Lt. Cdr. Herbert William Shove was told to be more careful in future after the submarine collided with Hebe on 25 April, 1914.

Hebe arrived in Sheerness in company with the submarine C 5 on 27 April, 1914. She afterward left for Harwich.[8]

She served with the Sixth Submarine Flotilla at the start of the war, following them to the Tyne from 1914 to 1916. She worked with the First Submarine Flotilla at Leith in 1916-17, and with the Third Submarine Flotilla in 1917-18.[9]
