Vega-Class

This ancient yacht was the first mass produced starships meant for private use as yacht/courier. It was produced in huge numbers and is still very common. A rich merchant might well have one.

It has a 1,000-ton (SM +8) unstreamlined hull about 48 meters long. Spacecraft are named after bright stars.
