H.M. T.B. 55 (1886)
Builder: Thornycroft[1]
Ordered: 30 April/1 May, 1885[2]
Launched: 29 Aug, 1886[3]
Sold: 23 Feb, 1920[4]

H.M. T.B. 55 was one of fifty-three 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. 055.[5]

Service

In 1895, she was one of thirteen T.B.s of 125 feet or greater length and four smaller ones stationed in Devonport.[6]
