It has jump drive-A, maneuver drive-A, and power plant-A, giving performance of jump-I and I-G acceleration. Fuel tankage 64 for 30 tons supports the jump drive and one jump-I. – Adjacent to the bridge is a computer Modelll. There are ten staterooms and twenty low berths. There are two hardpoints and two tons set aside for fire control. No weapons are mounted. There are no ship’s vehicles. Cargo capacity is 82 tons. The hull is streamlined.

The free trader requires a crew of four: pilot, engineer, medic, and steward. Up to two gunners may be added. The ship can carry six high or middle passengers and twenty low passengers. The ship costs MCr37.08 (including 10% discount for standard designs) and takes 11 months to build.
