In 1918, it was sold to Belgian owners and renamed Luis Pidal. In 1925, it was sold to Italian owners and renamed Bellini. A further sale in 1928 to German owners saw it renamed Bollan and then Lina Fisser in 1936.

In 1947, it was sold into merchant service and was renamed Marchmont. In 1952, a further sale saw her renamed Irene M. In 1955, it was sold to Canada, serving until 1957 when it was scrapped.
