Overview

As its name suggests, the Moray Starboat is derived from a sea faring vessel. It is a midsized, one man starship, its size similar to a Cobra Mk I


Notable Features

The Moray Starboat looks like an upside down pyramid, with one side having a longer slope than the other. Despite its innocent appearance however, it can pack a punch, if it has been turned into an Iron Arse

Disadvantages

The Moray Starboat is an ageing design, only still popular due to its simplicity. For a ship of its class, the Moray's engines are relatively underpowered, making fleeing from combat very difficult and traversing solar systems slow


Verdict

A nice vessel to try out for awhile and of a size able to defend itself. Pilots will begin to get bored with its limitations and size and move up to the infamous Cobra Mk III
