You may need to place the TGA file in the DAT file. That can be done via S3ditor; it is very easy.

Or you may need to make sure that the DATA\ROSTER\[COUNTRY]\SEA\[UNIT].CFG file has a skin entry. SH3 does not handle skins via the CFG files like SH4, so there is a good chance that this is your problem. Note the text below from BBColorado.cfg (one of the stock SH4 ships):

[Texture 1]
TextureName=data/Sea/NBB_Colorado/NBB_Colorado_T01.tga
LightmapTextureName=data/Sea/NBB_Colorado/NBB_Colorado_O01.tga
NormalmapTextureName=data/Sea/NBB_Colorado/NBB_Colorado_N01.tga
StartDate=19000101
EndDate=19991231
Frequency=1

If you don't feel like including Lightmap or Normalmap textures, set them to "NULL" - for example:

[Texture 1]
TextureName=data/Sea/NBB_Colorado/NBB_Colorado_T01.tga
LightmapTextureName=NULL
NormalmapTextureName=NULL
StartDate=19000101
EndDate=19991231
Frequency=1
