Abstract

On the 24th of June 1889a successful trial of the Brennan torpedo had been carried out at Totlands Bay, Isle of Wight. However, there was still some debate as to whether the Brennan was nothing more than an exquisitely constructed scientific toy that would "never prove to be of much service or utility in active service."
