She was recommissioned three times in Sydney before leaving the Australia Station on 1 December 1897.[3] In March 1902, it was announced that she would be sold out of service owing to defects in her machinery.[4] Six months later, she was instead posted to Gibraltar where she arrived for dockyard work in September 1902.[5] Hulked in 1906, she was converted into a coal hulk in 1912 and was renamed C7 . She became an accommodation ship in 1916 and was renamed Hart . She was sold at Gibraltar in 1948.[3]
