Project history Fitted with TE engines built by Maudslay, these White boats had locomotive-type boilers, and therefore were reboilered a decade or so after completion with water-tube ones. T

Fitted with TE engines built by Maudslay, these White boats had locomotive-type boilers, and therefore were reboilered a decade or so after completion with water-tube ones.  These boats, having less metacentric height than the others, were easier in a seaway. Modernizations: 1900s, all: were reboliered with water-tube boilers.
