HMAS Marguerite arrived in Sydney in company with her sister ships Mallow and Geranium on 8 June 1919. Excepting a visit to Fiji in 1920 and a voyage to New Guinea and the Solomons in 1924 the remainder of her sea-going career was spent in Australian coastal waters. Her chief activity was that of Naval Reserve training ship. She was dismantled at Cockatoo Island Dockyard, Sydney, in September 1932 and the hulk sunk by gunfire off Sydney on 1 August 1935.
