This is a list of ships built by John I. Thornycroft & Company at the yard at Chiswick, England. Production of larger ships moved to the yard at Woolston in 1904 and production at Chiswick ceased in 1909.

Ships and boats

Some early boats are not yet documented online. A large part of the information has been provided by the Miramar Ship Index ( www.miramarshipindex.org.nz) through a Wikipedia partnership. However, the official lists of vessels built by Thornycroft (at both Chiswick and at Woolston) are available in the unpublished (but officially recognised) Thornycroft List of 1981 researched and compiled by the late David Lyon with assistance of Thornycroft personnel and the company's archives.

Completed Name Yard No Tonnage Description Illustration
1862 Nautilus #1 This small steam launch of 9.5 knots was Thornycroft's first vessel, begun in 1859, when he was just 16. In 1862 it was the only boat that was able to follow the rovers of the University race, giving Thornycroft some publicity. [1]
1863 Ariel #2 There may have been two Ariels. Banbury (page 283) lists a wooden launch as Yard No. 2, while The Engineer of 4 November 1870 describes a steel yacht "built some time ago". [2]
1863 unnamed punt #3 10 ft works Punt.
1863 Slaney #4 Steam launch. The Royal Museums at Greenwich have the plans, but not much else is available online. [3]
1866 Waterlily #5 Iron launch, capable of 7.8 knots. Preserved as part of the National Historic Fleet. It was used by Thomas Thornycroft, father of John I. Thornycroft. [4] [5] [6]
1866 Idler #6 Steam Launch. The Royal Museums at Greenwich have the plans, but not much else is available online. [7]
1870 Swallow #7 Capable of 16.2 knots. [8]
1870 Scolopendra #8 Steam launch. Apparently a sister to Cygnet. The Royal Museums at Greenwich have the plans, but not much else is available online. [9]
1870 Cygnet #9 1.5 Small steam launch, preserved and displayed by The Tamesis Trust. [10]
1871 Miranda #10 3.7 A fast steam yacht with lines that set the precedent for torpedo boats in the following years. [11]
1871 Canopus #11 Open launch. The Royal Museums at Greenwich have the plans, but not much else is available online. [12]
1872 Belvedere #12 Capable of 15.6 knots. [13]
1872 Sphinx #13
1872 O.E.A. #15 Launch of 15 metres (50 ft) or 17 metres (57 ft), capable of 14¾ knots. [14]

or
Maid of Homour
#16 Open launch, capable of 10.5 knots. [15]
1872 Sylvia #17 Boat of 14 metres (45 ft), capable of 10.5 knots. [16]
1873 Sir Arthur Cotton #18 A fast launch, cited at 21.4 knots and claimed in 1874 to be the fastest vessel in the world. [17] [18]
1873 Firefly #14 There was more than one Firefly (#14 & #19) plus two further vessels of the #19 design. Engineering had two articles in 1873 about a vessel from that year, length 16 metres (53 ft) and with a speed of 16.46 knots (18.94 mph). [19] The 1873 yacht was apparently sold to Russia and converted into a torpedo boat. [20] [21]
Firefly #19
Yard No. 20 #20
Yard No. 21 #21
1874 unnamed punt #22
1873 Rap #23 10 The Norwegian torpedo boat Rap (Known as the Maelstrom [22] before delivery) was the first in a long series of small fast boats built of steel for naval service. The boat has been preserved at the Royal Norwegian Navy Museum at Horten.
1874 unnamed launch #24
1874 Admiralty No.58 #25 A pinnace for the Royal Navy, capable of 9.2 knots. [23]
1874 Choutka #26 Built of steel and capable of 16.9 knots. Bought by Russia and served as a torpedo boat. [24]

1874 Eva 34 Launch, ordered by the Henley Royal Regatta as an umpire's launch. Used 1874–1876 and then sold. The 14-metre (45 ft) long vessel was built of iron and quoted at 13 knots (15 mph). The photo shows her being restored at the Kew Steam Museum. Since 1996 part of the River & Rowing Museum at Henley. [27]

1875 Dampchalup Nr. 5 33 8 A third Rap-type vessel, this time for Denmark. The proposed armament with spar torpedoes never materialized, and instead it was first supplied with towed torpedoes and later with dropping gear for two 35 cm (14-inch) torpedoes. [33]
1876 Gitana 37 This fast yacht was built for Baroness A. de Rothschild and intended for service on Lake Geneva. The 27-metre (90 ft) long vessel did 20.76 knots (23.89 mph) on her trials. [34]

1877 Torpediniere I 60 30 This boat for Italy was briefly described in Engineering on 8 June 1877 as being considered for Whitehead torpedoes. But it seems that a spar torpedo installation was chosen instead. [38] [39]
1878 Torpilleur 8 54 26 A series of spar torpedo boats for France. Measuring 26.6 metres (87.2 ft) overall, they were similar to HMS Lightning. The Engineer reported the speed trials for the first six, ranging from 18.4 to 19.4 knots. Number 10, 16 and 19 were later fitted with torpedo tubes. [40] [41]

Measuring 26.3 metres (86.4 ft), they were almost identical to HMS Lightning (which was renamed HM TB 1), except that the Gitana-style cabin roof was discarded.

1882 Peace 155 A shallow draught mission steamer for service on the Congo River. It measured 21.3 metres (70.0 ft) and did 10.4 knots on trials.

Rayo 248 120
1887 Støren 249 110 Two first class torpedo boats for the Navy of Denmark. This pair had a traditional ram bow, which made the boats wet at any but the slowest speed. They had two 38 cm (15-inch) torpedo tubes in the bows and two more on the poop. The trial speed was up to 23.3 knots. [111] [112]
