Just a bye the bye the ships stamp for the Valour had its BHP as 14000 whereas the Courage stamp showed the BHP as 25000.
Not sure if my memory is playing me tricks but I seem to remember drawings for where guns could be fitted onto reinforced decks fore and aft.
Struggling to remember the contents of the DEMS locker, there were boards for hanging over the side to cover the ships name and there was something for over the stern, when in convoys, for the ship astern to see you in blackouts.

I seem to recall that the thing towed astern was a sort of sled. This created a wake which showed up clearly to the vessel following.
