Can't see enough of the superstructure to be definitive, but it looks
more like a motoryacht than a trawler to me. Obviously doesn't have a
proper boat deck and running from the lower helm (if even equipped) is
a low priority.

It was a motoryacht (HTMY).

We were running side by side with them while taking pictures of a
sinking LT Parker (actually it was just down by the stern), when we
started taking incoming enemy fire. I immediately activated the
electronic counter measures which were very effective. Unfortunately
the HTMY was not so equipped and suffered irreparable damage from
incoming flak.

The LTP sped off mumbling something about how we were burning all of
*his* oil.
