Launched:	1885^[3]
Completed:	August 1886^[4]

H.M. T.B. 66 was one of 53 first-class torpedo boats of the 125 Footer class.

Service

In 1895, she was one of twenty-three torpedo boats of at least 125 feet in length stationed in Portsmouth along with four smaller ones.^[6]

She commissioned on 8 July to participate in the Annual Manoeuvres of 1896.^[7]

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. 066.^[8]

Sold to Ward, Hayle for scrapping on 30 June, 1920.^[9]
