As I posted my Jessica Meade's stats over in the Obscure Character thread,
I figured I should post the stats for her starships here -- rather than there!

***********************************************************

CORSALYS



Craft: Surronian StarTech L-series Freighter
Type: Modified Light Freighter
Scale: Starfighter
Length: 39.3 meters
Skill: Space Transports: Surronian L-series
Crew: 1 (pilot), gunner: 1
Crew Skill: See Jessica Meade
Passengers: 6
Cargo Capacity: 125 metric tons
Consumables: 2 months
Cost: 105,000 credits (new)
Hyperdrive Multiplier: x1
Hyperdrive Backup: x10
Nav Computer: Yes
Maneuverability: 1D+2
Space: 6
Atmosphere: 330; 950 kmh
Hull: 4D
Shields: 2D
Sensors:
Passive: 10/0D
Scan: 25/1D
Search: 45/3D
Focus: 3/4D

Weapons:

Laser Cannon
Fire Arc: Dorsal Turret (above cockpit)
Crew: 1 (gunner)
Skill: Starship Gunnery
Fire Control: 2D
Space Range: 1-3/12/25
Atmosphere: 100-300/1.2/2.5 km
Damage: 4D+2

Equipped with:

Shock-absorbing Ram: Deploys in front firing arc; successful use
(space transports roll as "parry" of impact or attack roll) grants a
-3D modifier to collision damage.

Shuttle/Escape Pod: Cockpit may disengage as shuttle that retains sensor suite
and weapons armament. Shuttle houses hyperdrive, but at cost of shield generators
and hull fortification: maneuverability: 2D, space: 6, hull: 3D+2.

KING'S RANSOM



Craft:
Tammuz-an Fuel Transporter
Type: Stock Fuel Transport Freighter
Scale: Capital
Length: 90.5 meters (height) x 54.5 meters (length): with Fuel Tanker Pod,
5.5 meters (height) x 54.5 meters (length): Transport only
Skill: Space Transports: Tammuz-an Fuel Transporter
Crew: 2; skeleton: 1/+5
Cargo Capacity: 10 kilograms (Transport) 9,000 metric tons (Fuel Tanker Pod)
Consumables: 6 months
Cost: 50,000 (new), 15,000 (used)
Hyperdrive Multiplier: x3
Hyperdrive Backup: x15
Nav Computer: Yes
Maneuverability: 2D/0D (Transport only / with Fuel Tanker Pod)
Space: 2
Atmosphere: 225; 650 km/h
Hull: 3D+2
Shields: 2D+1
Sensors:
Passive: 40/0D
Scan: 60/1D
Search: 90/2D
Focus: 4/3D

Game Notes:

Escape Pods: The tug-hauler unit of the Tammuz-an Fuel Transporter is equipped with
4 escape pods (2 starboard, 2 port) and is capable of landing on planetary surfaces.

Fuel Transport Tanker or Fuel Tanker Pod (FTP): 9,000 metric ton cargo capacity pod is
85 meters (height) x 50 meters (length) x 40 meters (width). At its top is a forward-facing
control room for monitoring the pod's cargo and simple repulsor controls for maneuvering
the pod for connecting with the tug-hauler transport itself. Once the pod is in place, two
hydraulic safety arms lock into paired reinforced couplers, and the pod's base magnetically
seals onto roof of transport. Once pod is locked into place, transport maneuverability drops to 0D.

Capsule: The Tammuz-an fuel transporter was a starship used for hauling fuel supplies
in bulk. Comprised of two components, the tug-transport itself and a cargo tanker pod,
and propelled by the two thrusters, the Tammuz-an fuel transporter was equipped with
escape pods and was capable of landing on planetary surfaces for cargo transfers.

You know the more I look at The King's Ransom the more this looks like a ship with a fuel pod attached to the top of it. As though the fuel pod is moved by onboard repulsor engines or is loaded using a large crane or crane-like apparatus. When loaded into position the two locking arms come down and lock into place on the ship below. At least that is what it looks like to me. Thoughts anyone?

Hah, you're not wrong when it comes to The King's Ransom! It does look like a ship with a huge pod on its back.

I liked the Corsalys stats. I might've given it Space 7, but that's purely up to taste I think - it's not a functional difference.

Suggested changes and additions:

Scale: Starfighter
Length: 54.5 meters
Cargo Capacity: None
Consumables: 6 months
Cost: 50,000 (new), 15,000 (used)
Maneuverability: 2D
Shields: 1D

Game Notes:
-- Fuel Transport Pod (FTP): This container is 85 meters (height) x 50 meters (length) x 40 meters (width). At the front is a turbolift to the forward facing control room used monitoring the pods cargo and simple repulsor controls for maneuvering the pod for connecting with the transport. Once the pod is in place, two safety arms lock into a reinforced coupler and the bottom magentically seals to roof of the transport. Once the the pod is locked into place, the transports maneuverability drops to 0D.

Capsule: The Tammuz-an fuel transporter is tug-like ship propelled by two powerful thrusters. It is equipped four with several escape pods and can land on planetary surfaces.

Nice! Sound reasoning and totally agreed that it very much looks like a hydraulic-hitch-seal-and-go situation, with tankards affixed to the top of hauler-vessel!

Will incorporate the changes into the above original post as well.
