Maybe they should call it Starboard Wars.

What started out as “a bit of fun,” according to creative director Rob Armstrong, has become an annual tradition for the yacht designers at Thirtyc . Every year, the UK-based firm puts out a Star Wars -themed yacht, with characters or spacecraft from the franchise on board different superyachts. This week, in celebration of the unofficial Star Wars Day (May the 4th Be With You), Thirtyc released its latest series using yacht tenders driven by Star Wars characters.

The shipyard that built the ‘titanic’ has filed for bankruptcy.

“We did our first one when we opened the studio in 2015,” Armstrong told Robb Report . “We felt like we were injecting a bit of fun into our industry. Most of us knew Star Wars while growing up, so it seemed like a good way to add some light humor to what can sometimes become very serious superyacht projects.”

Seeing a storm trooper and Darth Vader on a million-dollar tender isn’t an everyday occurrence. Neither is catching a glimpse of Princess Leia or Chewbacca driving away on another tender.

The Star Wars tribute, with Starfighters and other spacecraft aboard superyachts, has proven so popular that Thirtyc has expanded to smaller tenders.  Thirtyc Studio

At first, the firm received a lot of compliments about their whimsical but highly realistic work. “As it spoke to peoples’ imaginations, they started asking us to use their boats,” says Armstrong. Soon, Star Wars vehicles like AT-AT Walkers and Starfighters appeared on superyacht helipads and rear decks.

Recent superyachts transporting either Galactic Empire or Rebel vehicles included SilverFast, Eclipse , and many of the Damen support vessels, says Armstrong, who credits “great” marine photographers for providing the images. The team at ThirtyC also agonizes over the images to make them as realistic as possible, monitoring the way light falls from the yachts as well as figures standing on the smaller yacht tenders.

The UK designers have also included some Game of Thrones motifs on other superyachts.  Thirtyc

“We create image composites with the Star Wars theme, placing props and vehicles within the images,” says Armstrong. “Some of the characters were 3-D-modeled and placed to match the image. We want the shadows to look right on the boats.”

This year’s Star Wars  vehicle list includes the Pascoe SY9 Beachlander, Hodgdon 10.5m Venetian Limo Tender, Cockwells Titian Tender, Wally Tender 48 and Vandal 14m Open chase boat.

Armstrong says the annual exercise is a morale-builder for the team, and shows the yachting industry how creative the Thirtyc team can be. “The goal is to make people look twice so they don’t know if it’s real or not,” he says.

The Star Wars exercise has become so popular that Thirtyc has expanded its portfolio to Game of Thrones, Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, and last year’s anniversary of the first lunar landing. The Apollo space capsule was set, appropriately, on the helipad of the 377-ft. expedition yacht, Luna.

Armstrong says the team is already discussing what next year’s Star Wars theme will be. “Each year’s a challenge to think up a new angle for our audience and friends,” he says. “We’ll be brainstorming, but all ideas are welcome.”

Luxury 3000 Space Yacht

• Edit source

Reference Book: Star Wars Saga Edition Dawn of Defiance ( The Queen of Air and Darkness )

The Glorious Chariot is a Luxury 3000 Space Yacht designed by the SoroSuub Corporation. This particular vessel was customized for Darga the Hutt . The interior of the ship was once very nice, but like the inside of Darga's palace, it has been used as a den of iniquity for far too long. Much of the interior is in severe disrepair, and some parts of the ship can only be classified as "Disgusting." However, Darga knew better than to trust his enemies to fail to recognize his ship, and thus he had aftermarket modifications made to the yacht to add extra defensive weapons that are normally manned by his crew.

When the heroes board the ship, a few of Darga's crewmembers are in the cabin area, hoping to be left alone. One look at the heroes, however, and they rush out in fear.

H-type Nubian yacht

The H-Type Nubian yacht was a sleek luxury yacht and what it lacked in weapons it made up for in style and a strong deflector shield. The signature silver finish is a mark that the ship belongs to a former member of Naboo’s monarchy. Padme Amidala used a ship like this after her J-Type diplomatic barge was destroyed in an assassins attack. It was an H-Type that whisked Padme and Anakin Skywalker from Naboo to Tatooine, and then to Geonosis where the Clone Wars would begin.

Star Wars injected into superyacht design to mark May the 4th

Star Wars themed vehicles and characters have been spotted taking over the world’s superyachts and tenders thanks to the imagination of design studio ThirtyC and superyacht builder Heesen Yachts. 

Both companies released new doctored superyacht images to mark Star Wars Day, May 4th, including Heesen's superyacht Aura and Lürssen superyacht Nord , which has been transformed into "Grogu", a character from Star Wars spin-off TV series The Mandalorian.

ThirtyC has been creating the eccentric images since it launched in 2015 “just for fun,” according to studio founder Rob Armstrong. But now the images have become an annual occurrence.

“Over the years, our images have gained more exposure and almost become expected,” Armstrong said. “Each year is a challenge to think up a new creative angle for our audience and friends.”

ThirtyC’s images star a range of recognisable superyachts including  SilverFast ,  Eclipse  and many  Damen  support vessels. Armstrong said the yachts “have provided a great canvas”. Legendary Star Wars vehicles, including W-Wings, AT-ATs- and Tie Fighters have made an appearance.

“We generally produce image composites with the Star Wars theme, placing props, vehicles within the images. Credit must in part go to all the yacht photographers for the fantastic images,” he said.

Last year, the studio focused on inserting some of the franchise’s best-known characters, including Darth Vader and his stormtroopers, into a selection of superyacht tenders. These include the Cockwells Titian Tender, 48 Wallytender and Vandal 14m Open chase boats.

Background and History

The SoroSuub Personal Luxury Yacht 3000 was a yacht starship, similar to a transport, only more suited to travellers rather than cargo, and far more luxurious.

The Personal Luxury Yacht 3000 is 50 meters long, with a pair of engine pods that extended from the main hull. Each pod houses a sublight engine and a hyperdrive engine. It also has an observational level with an exterior deck near the aft of the ship, while the interior compartment has a small jet-stream meditation pool and several conform-couches. The main deck offers a dining area, a large private suite, and five visitor cabins, as well as the escape pods, the bridge and the main control systems. In addition, the viewports on the side of the ship are retractable. Above the bridge is a docking coupling. The power couplings and sensor arrays were at the front of the ship, and in some cases jut out.

Sorosuub Luxury Yacht

• Edit source

The Sorosuub Luxury Yacht is a veteran reward given to players who have been subscribed to SWG for at least 180 continuous days, or in other words, 6 months. The yacht is a mutli-player ship that is great for hosting parties through space, but has no weapons for space combat. The Yacht is also invulnerable to attack, and cannot be challenged to duel. It can initiate the Lost Star Destroyer Heroic but players will not receive the bonus buff you would if a vulnerable craft was used. It can hold up to 100 items, and does not take up any lots while in the player's datapad.

Note: As the Sorosuub Luxury Yacht is a Veteran Award, it can not be modified with Crafted or Looted Space components, such as weapons, engines, etc.

The command /getvet will allow you to see how many days are logged for Veteran Rewards and if enough time is accumulated, then to receive that Reward using the /claimVet command.

Star Wars Lore [ ]

SoroSuub Personal Luxury Yacht 3000

The SoroSuub Personal Luxury Yacht 3000 is a luxury yacht made famous by the Lady Luck. The Lady Luck is the personal starship of gambler and New Republic hero Lando Calrissian. Lando has owned numerous starships throughout his long career, but the Lady Luck has been the most durable. Calrissian purchased Lady Luck from an Orthellin royal mistress after the Battle of Endor. At the time, Lando's involvement with the mining operation known as Nomad City kept him from tinkering with the starship, but in the years since he has repeatedly modified and upgraded Lady Luck.

Lando initially planned to transform the Lady Luck into an advanced luxury cruiser. However, Calrissian's near-constant involvement with the New Republic has forced him to convert the Lady Luck into a competent combat vehicle. At first glance, the fifty-meter long starship appears to be an unarmed pleasure yacht, but this placid exterior conceals five retractable laser cannons and a small ion cannon turret. A pair of powerful Chempat-6 deflector shield generators provide moderate protection from enemy fire. The Lady Luck's engines are housed in two long engine pods connected to the main hull. Although the starship's sublight and hyperdrive speeds can't match those of the Millennium Falcon, the Lady Luck can still outrace nearly any other luxury vehicle in the galaxy.

Bridge of a luxury yacht

The Lady Luck's secondary systems truly set it apart. It has a highly-sophisticated sensor system allowing Lando to detect, identify, and scan approaching vessels at great range. When the Lady Luck is scanned by customs officials or enemy forces, the ship's transponder can be programmed with up to three separate false identities that include aliases, fake cargo manifests, and modified system specs. Lando frequently changes these identities, although he has used the alias "Stardream" on more than one occasion. A droid brain aboard the starship can pilot the starship in emergencies and direct it towards a summoning unit that Lando always keeps on his belt; this feature proved especially helpful when Lando, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo were forced to flee the mining city of Ilic. The starship also has concealed smuggler compartments.

Although the Lady Luck is now well-suited to combat, it is still a lavish luxury starship. An entire observation level includes an exterior deck and numerous viewports. Lando's private suite and the five visitor cabins are decorated with rare art from around the galaxy. Conform-couches can be found throughout the starship, and the main deck contains a jet-stream meditation pool, and a small crystal garden. Even the Lady Luck's escape pods are furnished with state-of-the-art grav-couches covered in the finest Corellian leather.

Please note that this Veteran Reward is not listed in the "Veteran Rewards" tab on the Star Wars Galaxies main page, though it is still available.
