USS Argo Database

Design Overview

The Kelvin-class yacht, built from the same model as that of the Sovereign, is designed to serve essentially the same function as any other ship's yacht. Like all of the new generation, it is a warp capable design intended to be capable of short and medium duration interstellar missions as well as interplanetary trips. The Yacht is capable of warp 9 in an emergency, but its normal cruise speed is warp 5, giving it the same general mission radius as a Danube class Runabout. The ship contains a small cargo bay and transporter system, two staterooms, a shared room for the crew, plus a living area and separate flight deck. The normal crew is 2, although a single person can handle the flight controls. A third crew member cares for the guests.
There is no standard armament as such, but the yacht is capable of firing tachyon bursts in an emergency and is equipped with shields for defensive purposes.
