He joined the Navy at the age of 14 in 1873, and saw active service during the 1890 Witu Expedition in East Africa, where he was mentioned in despatches. In 1898 he was appointed as Deputy Commissioner for the Western Pacific and a member of the Naval Intelligence Department, and in 1901 promoted to Captain and posted to the Admiralty as Assistant Director of Naval Ordnance.〔(Tupper, Admiral Sir Reginald Godfrey Otway ), in ''Who Was Who'' (2008)〕 In 1903, he was given a seagoing command, the cruiser HMS ''Venus'', and transferred to the battleship HMS ''Prince of Wales'' in 1905.
