The Royal Navy's Annual Manoeuvres of 1903 were conducted between 5 and 11 August, 1903 by the combined Mediterranean, Home and [[|Channel Fleets in company with the Cruiser Squadron.
Order of Battle
The exercise was conducted in the form of "X" and "B" Fleets, as had been a practice since at least 1901. Some of the ships participating were already in full commission, whereas others were to be completed to full complement, and others were commissioned from a fully reserve state.
The Times reported that Alan Montagu Yeats-Brown commanded T.B. 82 and Arthur Kipling Waistell was in T.B. 109 in the Manoeuvres, but their service records it the other way around and Yeats-Brown's Service Record contains an inspection of T.B. 109. I've concluded that Waistell commanded T.B. 82 and Yeats-Brown commanded T.B. 109 for this exercise.
