The Times reported that Arthur Kipling Waistell commanded this boat and Alan Montagu Yeats-Brown commanded T.B. 82 in the Annual Manoeuvres of 1903,[30] but their service records state it the other way around, and Yeats-Brown has an inspection report for T.B. 109. I've decided the service records are more reliable in this instance.
