Tuatara (Mineral) (ship)

When billionaire heir Soa t'Snt announced his venture into ship design, no-one believed he could fail.

How wrong they were.

Despite many attempts, the only vessel to make it off dry dock to date is the Tuatara. For its class, it is indeed fast, but not notably so. The Tuatara also lacks a generous hold and is, frankly, somewhat on the expensive side.

The enduring surprise is that anyone at all purchases this vessel. And yet, it does look attractive and there are always some fundamentalists who will only buy Split technology.

The mining variant fails to deliver sufficient speed to make up for the Tuatara's pitiful hold capacity.
