There's a newer version of SH3 Commander, 3.1, and I suggest you install it.
Yes there is a "GWX patch" for commander. Download the files from the GWX page and copy them to your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder.
You probably don't see any ships because you enabled Black Sea or Indian Ocean Campaign files only. Disable those mods and you'll get your ships back.
