DESCRIPTION
The KS-9910 Kathol-class skiff is a light freighter produced by the Hoersch-Kessel Drive corporation. Among the faster light freighters on the market, it is widely used by express courier services, as well as certain less-than-reputable independent spacers.The Kathol-class skiff - named, incidentally, for the famously rugged Kathol sector - is a swift machine, capable of making 85 MGLT, with a class 1 hyperdrive giving it excellent speed over interstellar distances as well. It can carry 15 standard tons of cargo, as well as up to 4 passengers. Crew is 1 pilot and 1 optional co-pilot, the latter doubling as a gunner for the ship's single defensive dual laser turret, mounted on the dorsal hull.
One of the fastest small courier ships available, the Kathol has developed something of a following among the Galaxy's pilots. Easy to tune and modify to the owner's own specifications, customized Kathols hold a number of Galactic performance records for the courier category.
LEGALITY
Legal. Star skiffs such as the Kathol are considered innocuous enough under most jurisdictions, and are not restricted in most systems.INTENT
To create a fast courier ship.
