Notes:
The Marva class Far Trader is the state-of-the-art construction within
the borders of the ....(Spinward Marches,Regency... insert as you like).
Though the ship costs about 8 MCr more than it's less sophisticated sister,
the Jayhawk class Far Trader. Based on the same hull, this design includes
more Cargo and sports much easier maintenance. The ship requires a crew of
4 for full operations.
The ship's power plant has a reserve of more than 10 MW for the addition
of two 150 Mj Laser Turrets. Most of the ship's components are identical to
the Beowulf class Free Trader, which should lower maintenance costs
significantly.
The Fuel purification machinery(1.25 MW) can refine 250 kl each 6 hours.
The whole Fuel load (1100 kl) can be refined in 26 hours 24 minutes.
Calculating Damage Tables:
Elec: 400 * ( 47.312/2800) = 7 ( 1.75%)
Hold: 400 * (1973.288/2800) = 282 (79.50%)
Qtrs: 400 * ( 454.400/2800) = 65 (16.25%)
Eng: 400 * ( 231.000/2800) = 34 ( 8.50%)
TS: 400 * ( 84.000/2800) = 12 ( 3.00%)

AG-1H, Hangar-(2h), Cargo Space-8H (?), all others-(1h)
My assumptions for the ship:
I placed one large cargo hatch in the front, right between the nacelles
of the cockpit (to the right) and the owners cabin. It opens downward
as a ramp. The two small cargo hatches are on the left and right lower
side of the ship. The Launch Port for the Air raft is above the large
cargo hatch. Also the passenger accomodations are placed in the front
area of the ship.
