The Shakespearian class trawler was a class of anti-submarine naval trawlers that served the Royal Navy. Ships in this class had a displacement of 545 tons, a top speed of 12 knots, a crew of 40 men, and armament of one 12-pounder AA gun, three 20 mm Oerlikon AA guns and 30 depth charges. They were nearly identical to the Isles class trawlers, of which they are usually considered a subclass. Three of the Shakespearian class trawlers were war losses: ''Coriolanus'', ''Horatio'' and ''Laertes''. One, ''Othello'', was transferred to Italy in 1946, and another, ''Rosalind'', to Kenya, also in 1946. By the end of that year, only ''Hamlet'' and ''Macbeth'' remained in service with the Royal Navy; both were sold in 1947. ==Ships in class== *Built by Cochrane & Sons, Selby, UK * * - Launched 1940, sold 1946 * * - Launched 1940, war loss 1945 * * - Launched 1940, sold 1946 *Built by Cook, Welton & Gemmell, Beverley, UK * * - Launched 24 July 1940, sold 1947 * * - Launched 1940, war loss 1943 * * - Launched 1940, sold 1946 * * - Launched 1940, war loss 1942 *Built by Goole Shipbuilding & Repair Co., Goole, UK * * - Launched 3 October 1940, sold 1947 * * - Launched 1940, sold 1946 *Built by Hall, Russell & Company, Ltd., Aberdeen, UK * * - Launched 1941, transferred to Italy 1946 as ''DR 310'' *Built by A. & J.
