On 24 May, "Baden" again steamed to Helgoland, this time to take the commander in chief of the fleet, Admiral Reinhard Scheer, and Grand Duke Friedrich von Baden to visit the island. Only "Karlsruhe" joined the ship on this voyage. In August, "Baden" was dry docked for maintenance, and on the 7th of the month, Hipper replaced Scheer as the fleet commander. "Baden" was refloated on 24 August in preparation for what was to be the last major training exercise of the fleet, conducted on 6 September.
