Шаблон:Infobox ship imageШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship characteristicsHMS Daring and Шаблон:HMS together made up the Шаблон:Sclass of torpedo boat destroyers which served with the Royal Navy during the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. On trial she made headlines as the 'Fastest Boat Ever'. The introduction of steam turbines after 1897 quickly made her and her sisters obsolete and she was sold off in 1912.
Construction
The ship was laid down as yard number 287 at the Thornycroft yard at Chiswick in July 1892.[1] She was launched on 25 November 1893 following the naming ceremony by Mrs Thornycroft, the wife of the company founder John Isaac Thornycroft.[2] When Daring failed the sea trial cavitation was analyzed more deeply for the first time.[3][4] Thornycroft records suggest that Decoy and Daring together cost £66,948, but a letter to the Austrian Naval Attaché stated that the vessels had cost the Admiralty of £36,840 per vessel.[1] Daring commenced her trials off Gravesend on 17 January 1894 and soon moved to the measured mile at Maplin Sands near Southend. On 19 July she managed a speed of 28.21 knots over the measured mile, exceeding her design speed and earning her the sobriquet of the 'Fastest Boat Ever'.[5] Her coal consumption trial on 18 September showed that on one ton of coal she could travel nearly 38 nautical miles at 10 knots on one boiler.[6] She was completed in February 1895.[1]
Service history
Daring appears to have served in home waters between 1895 and 1912.[6] She was commissioned at Portsmouth on 23 February 1900 as tender to Шаблон:HMS, gunnery school situated on Whale Island near Portsmouth.[7] In early June 1901 a boiler explosion occurred on board Daring at anchor off Portsmouth, causing the death of a crew-member and injuring several others. An inquiry showed that some tubes were blown out of the lower drum, thus freeing a flood of scalding water and steam.[8] She was passed into the Fleet reserve at Portsmouth in early June 1902, and later the same month joined the instructional flotilla at Plymouth.[9] Lieutenant A. S. Susmann was appointed in command on 8 August 1902,[10] and the following month she became tender to Шаблон:HMS, gunnery school ship off Plymouth.[11] Later in September 1902, however, she was reported to be part of a squadron visiting Nauplia and Souda Bay at Crete in the Mediterranean Sea.[12] On 26 October 1907 a minor collision took place between Daring and the destroyer Шаблон:HMS at Devonport, both ships' hulls being dented.[13] Daring was sold on 10 April 1912.[6]
