Yes, version 1.1 takes the new trawlers out of the Royal Navy and places them in the merchant fleet. Thanks.

Also, on the subject of trawlers, this excerpt from a Wikipedia article on the Faroe Islands and WWII suggests another possible type of trawler that could be included in SHIII, assuming adding another nationality, Faroe Islands, is not a big problem:

"During the war, Faroese ships had to hoist the Faroese flag and paint FAROES / FØROYAR on the sides thus allowing the British Royal Navy to identify them as "friendly"."

A picture of such a trawler is below.
