There were some amendments made to the 2012 two character lists and as a result of discussions with Trinity House, the following marks that were formerly orange are now yellow:

• 2R Aquaspec

• 3B DigitalResearch

• 3P Citymain

• 32 Snowden

• 4N Flying Fish

• 4V Hamble Yacht Services

For the avoidance of doubt, Royal Southern, William and Williams Shipping are still orange for 2012.
