H.M. T.B. 61 (1885)
Builder: Yarrow[1]
Launched: 1885[2]
Sold: 1909[3]

H.M. T.B. 61 was one of 53 first-class torpedo boats of the 125 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. 061.[4]

Service

In 1895, she was one of two first-class T.B.s stationed at Halifax.[5]
