 Slava 's draft had increased too much to allow her to use the dredged channel between Hiiumaa Island and Vormsi ( Worms ) Island so she was ordered to wait until all the other deep @-@ draft ships had entered the channel and then scuttle herself at the channel entrance . However , the Sailors ' Committee organized on the ship after the February Revolution had ordered the engine room abandoned for fear of sinking , and she grounded on a shoal southeast of the channel because there was no one to obey the captain 's order to stop . A number of destroyers evacuated the crew before the rear 12 @-@ inch magazine exploded at 11 : 58 . However this was not deemed sufficient and three destroyers were ordered to torpedo her . Only one of their six torpedoes worked and Slava settled on the shallow bottom with a hole on the starboard side near the funnel . She was officially struck off the Navy List on 29 May 1918 by the Soviets and scrapped in 1935 by the Estonians .
