DESCRIPTION
In Hutt culture, it is almost inconceivable for an up-and-comer to not have a pleasure yacht, and it was with this in mind that the UBK set about creating the Minstrel. Larger than a freighter, the Minstrel is a luxury transport vessel, with high customisation within the vessel, a few weapons to see off any happy go, lucky pirates.As a ship, it is ideally crewed by a team of five, working together, but only two of those are required to actually fly the ship itself, the other two are required for navigation and sensor suite duty. Oddly enough, the displays for the sensors are noted to be rather difficult for most astromechs to interface with. This has been a design flaw that hasn't managed to be corrected during its production run and most owners learn to live with it, using their astromech instead for navigation.
LEGALITY
Legal. Pleasure yachts such as this are considered innocuous enough under most jurisdictions and are not restricted in most systems.INTENT
To have a personal ship for Hutts!
