H.M. T.B. 49 (1886)
Builder: John I. Thornycroft & Company[1]
Ordered: 30 April/1 May, 1885[2]
Launched: 1886[3]
Completed: August 1886[4]
Sold: 1 August, 1919[5]

H.M. T.B. 49 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. 049.[6]

Service

On 21 January 1890, T.B. 49 was used in a test to see whether she could jump a spar 6 feet broad and fitted with spikes representing a defensive boom in Porchester Creek. The boats had been specially strengthened for the test and was worked up to 20 knots. Striking the boom with her stem slightly elevated, she surmounted it with ease. Inspections of plating and propellers indicated she had suffered no damage whatsoever, and it was concluded that such defensive structures should be doubled or be augmented with nets to entangle props.[7]

In 1895, she was one of twenty-three first-class torpedo boats of at least 125 feet in length stationed in Portsmouth along with four smaller ones.[8]
