HMS Albatross was a 4-gun Fantome-class sloop built for the Royal Navy in the mid-1870s.




History


In May 1886, she was driven ashore at Hong Kong whilst going to the assistance of the British ship Dafila, which had also driven ashore. Both vessels were refloated, and HMS Albatross towed Dafila in to Hoikow, China.
