STARWIND
PLEASURE YACHT
The Starwind-class pleasure
yacht was originally Kuat Drive
Yards' attempt to create a competitor
for Corellian Engineering Corporation's
YT series. However, before the project even
launched, KDY changed their mind and re-
packaged the ship as a luxury yacht.
The Starwind has been moderately success-
ful on the market, although its redesign never
quite shook its light freighter origins. The trident-
shaned sfarshin has two side sections mounted

WAYFARER-CLASS MEDIUM FREIGHTER
Kuat Systems Engineering's Wayfarer-class is a rela-
tively new entry to the medium transport market.
Designed to accommodate unique modular shipping
containers built specifically for the ship, the Wayfar-
er was designed to revolutionize galactic shipping.
In reality these ships had a rocky development pro-
cess. By the time the first Wayfarers came off the
stocks for their shakedown cruises, the project was
terribly over budget and behind schedule. Only one
of the many types of shipping container was actu-
ally built, the bulk cargo container. This, combined
with the fact that the Wayfarer's cargo containers are
bespoke and the ship can't carry standard shipping
containers, limited its usefulness. Although they nev-
er revolutionized shipping, they have found a niche
among wealthy shipping conglomerates in the devel-
oped parts of the galaxy where their owners have
custom containers fabricated.
The vessel itself has a strange, ungainly design, with
the modular cargo container hung from ah armature
that extends from the port side of the ship's hull. The
ship is slightly unbalanced and requires a talented
and even-handed pilot to make the most of it.
along each side of the ship's main hull. One side
section houses the ship's crew quarters, the other
contains a reasonable sized cargo hold. The central
spar contains the bridge, guest quarters, stateroom,
lounge, galley, conference room, holotheater, and
even a zero-gee relaxation table. All in all, the ship
has a thorough catalog of amenities, as well as sub-
stantial cargo space.
However, the Starwind's main drawback is that it costs
as much as a light freighter and luxury yacht combined.
This has kept sales lukewarm, although some particu-
