Captain's Yacht

Due to the overwhelming request for change in CYs by StarFleet captains, StarFleet has put together a new ship and is testing it on the USS Phoenix-B. This new ship is The Capizelo, and attaches to the underside of the saucer section of the Phoenix.

The CY has two decks, the Flight Deck (considered Deck 2) and the Engineering Deck (considered Deck 1). It is primarily used to transport diplomatic persons to and from the ship, and occasionaly captain's shore-leave or vacation. It can be piloted with a crew of one, or for optimum performance of all stations, a crew of three. It has the ability to land on any smooth terrain or to attach to a StarBase or any other ship which has matching harness locks.

One of the major advances put into the Capizelo is the warp nacelle for warp capabilities of up to warp 5. Considerably smaller than most nacelle's, it can retract into the bridge area when the CY is attached to the Phoenix, so as not to disturb the contour of the Phoenix. This nacelle is approximately 30 feet long and 7 feet high (from connection to hull to top of nacelle). Another advance put into the Capizelo is the turbo-lift which, when in port, can connect to the StarBase or ship to provide for speedy transport.

Deck one houses the following: 1 emergency pod, 1 storage area, 2 holodecks, the master bedroom and head, and the engineering area. Deck two houses the following: the shuttle bay containing 1 shuttle and two pods, the galley, the guest lounge, the crew quarters and head for 3, 1 bedroom, 1 storage area, and the bridge.

Other Stats and Info

• Officers Quarters:
  • Each officers quarters contains the following: View Screen, desk, computer, food and clothing replicators, walk in closets, baths with whirlpools, beds, full bathroom, and living room.
  • There are 500 civilian apartments onboard and 120 crew quarters, some crew quarters are left open for other joining crew.
• Warp Factor/Speeds: The Phoenix-B, under the New Warp Table, has the ability to reach a maximum speed of warp 9.93, obtainable for 3 min and 42 seconds before engines activate auto-shutdown. The cruising speed for the Phoenix-B is warp 8. The warp core was recently updated to the bio-matter type, which prevents the ship from tampering with the fabric of space when at speeds over warp 5.
• Weapons: The Phoenix-B, because it is an exploration ship, is well equipped for battle, but is not meant for battle. It has the standard compliment of weapons for a ship in it's class.
• Saucer Separation and Emergency Maneuvers:
  • The Phoenix-B can safely separate its saucer from stardrive section at warp 2. After which, the saucer has the capability to make an emergency landing on a smooth and large surface of a planet. After this emergency landing it cannot be taken back up into space and if it is not already, must be destroyed. The stardrive section can be commanded at the Battle Bridge located just under the fastening cleats.
  • The Phoenix-B also has a large library of emergency maneuvers which can be performed at warp speeds.
• While the Phoenix - B acted as the field ship for the StarBase, it was usually in dock, waiting for any possible emergencies. The ship was maintained by a skeleton crew, around the clock. When needed, the ship was be ready to leave dock in less than 15 minutes, if no advance notice is given. Note, though, that the ship was always a "step ahead" the base, in that when the base's alert status became yellow, the ship's status became red. As soon as the ship's status became red, the Phoenix's skeleton crew immediately readied it to leave base.
