Following the end of the First World War, Loreley was sold to a private owner in Turkey, eventually being lost during a voyage in the Black Sea in 1926.

On 1 June 1885, the new yacht, named Mohican, was launched, eventually being handed to its owners, John and William Clark, industrialists from Largs the following year.

Upon the purchase of Mohican, which was given the temporary name Ersatz Loreley, the ship was given a minor refit, which included the addition of a pair of 5 cm SK L/40 guns.

[5] During its service, Loreley was utilised on a number of occasions by members of the Kaiser's family during visits to the Mediterranean - the ship was placed at the disposal of the Kaiser's mother, Empress Friedrich, during her stay at Lerici in Italy in 1900, while in 1904 Crown Prince Wilhelm and his brother, Prince Eitel Friedrich, used Loreley for their visit to Turkey.

The presence of a major German warship in the shape of Goeben relegated Loreley to minor duties, the most notable of which was the return of the former Ottoman sultan to Constantinople in November 1912 as a result of the fall of Salonika to Greek forces.

Following the outbreak of the First World War, Loreley was decommissioned, subsequently serving as a tender and occasional freight carrier in the Sea of Marmara.

Renamed as Haci Paşa, on 2 January 1926, the ship departed Batum en route to Samsun carrying a cargo of cased petroleum.
