Strengths:
- Sturdy hull and excellent redundant Mon Calamari shields
- Very good hyperdrive and navicomputer; access to proprietary hyperroutes
- Fast-tracking weapons capable of subduing or repelling many ships smaller than the MC33
- For a yacht, very sluggish in sublight
- Lightly armed
- Somewhat difficult for non-Mon Calamari to operate; Mon Calamari crew highly recommended
- The 'Casino Fit'
- The 'Caravel Fit' for the discerning plutocrat (popular among Huttese clients)
- The 'Cruise Fit' for elite commercial use
- The 'Spirit Fit' for Forcewielders of significant independent means (includes deluxe meditation chamber, crystallography lab/machine shop, high-ceiling physical training areas, and research databanks)
- The 'Silver Fit', comparable to the Spirit Fit with the addition of a high-capacity hot tub
Intent: It's not often someone shows me a Mon Cal-like starship image that I haven't used already. This one begged for a submission, plus someone wanted it to be a nice yacht.
