Jock -
Not having served on either a Merchant Ship or a Naval vessel, I am not sure what you are referring to by your observation:
"v) Why does John run Swallow as a Merchant ship, rather than a Naval vessel?"
Swallow has been used to haul cargo, but has never mounted any Naval weapons. In PD (made up fantasy story) it did get shot at and got a bullet wound.
Oh, the things I learn by persuing All Things Ransome... So teach me.
