Ship Details

• Ship Name: Shuttle Craft Boyne
• Ship Registry: NCC-34523
• Ship Class: Type-11 Heavy Shuttle
• Ship Status: Destroyed

The Boyne is a Type-11 Heavy Shuttle assigned to the USS Ronin, named after the Battle of Boyne, pronounced Cath na Bóinne in Irish, (July 1, 1690 ). The Battle of the Boyne was fought in 1690 between two rival claimants of the English, Scottish and Irish thrones - the Catholic King James and the Protestant King William, who had deposed James in 1688. The battle, won by William, was a turning point in James' unsuccessful attempt to regain the crown and ultimately helped ensure the continuation of Protestant supremacy in Ireland.

Stardate 238605.27

On Stardate 238605.27 the shuttle was used in the evacuation of the USS Ronin, after it became apparent the Romulans could be planning an attack on the almost defenceless USS Ronin Captain Walker gave the order for all Shuttle Craft and Fighters to attack the Romulans with everything they had. During this attack Shuttle Craft Boyne was destroyed with all hands, due to the evacuation it is estimated that 5 Starfleet Personnel gave their lives to save the USS Ronin, part of the overall 89 lives lost that day.
