Yes great question was wondering that myself.
yea me too. the obvious to assume would be yes but you never know. oh and anyone know if any of its systems will be upgradeable? i know weapons and shields wont because it dosent have them but what about the sublight engines and hyperdrive (if it has hyper)?

I personally think the devs are doing a great job with JTL. And with this ship. I can't wait to get mine.

Wow. I am absolutely no longer excited about the Lady Luck. I'm now horribly depressed. I will NEVER use this ship now. Not because of the no combat features, but because it's use is horribly limited and an enourmous inconvenience.
This has just guarenteed that EVERY privateer pilot and smuggler will NEVER use this ship. Because we'll have our YT-1300's. And on the occassion that we would want to use them, we'd have to completely take down our house. That's what you're saying, TH. You guys are telling me, that to use a new building for my town, every time I put it down I have to clear out my house, and put it back together when I'm done.
I was disappointed as it is to learn that I can't have vendors in there, guarenteeing that any party I have is going to have to becatered. But now you're telling me that if I want to have a party at all I have to take apart, basically, a small house. And then put it back up again.
Come on guys. Why is it always good news/bad news with you cats? Why is it always, "Hey here is this really cool idea but we can't implement it right so there's lots of really unfun and inconveniences about it."
But hey, perhaps this ship WILL be perfect for smugglers. It's a great idea without any implementation behind it, so we'll all sit around and wait for it to eventually be cool.

I need to throw in my 2 cents too. Only being able to decorate one ship is bad enough (a cap of 100 items or 50 items across both ships would even be ok) BUT not EVEN being able to launch a second multi-person, UN-DECORATED craft 'cuz the first has stuff in it is ridiculous!
Give us a cap on items or let us launch the second undecorated at least!

This will be a perfect ship for me... I was wanting a multi person vessel for doing some sightseeing and some crafting away from the citys and such, but was afraid that in wandering around space I would get vaped by somthing while I was in the middle of crafting. But with this ship that is no longer a worry, and what an impressive view from the windows. 
THe limit on decorating is annoying, and I would like this ship to not cout against the total number of ships we can have... but dispite all of that... this will be a great ship to have. (cant wait to see what the other multi player ships will look like though)

Umm, from what I've seen here, I like what I'm seeing. got it? I like it. YOU don't have to, but I do. And its about the only 2 things I think SOE is doing right in this game anyways.

Sorry for reposting, I couldnt post something Thunderheart said, it kept saying my message wasn't "clean" and now that i deleted his post from mine, my message is suddenly "clean" lol
Imagine this scenario, Player A decides he wants to decoratehistwo multiplayer ships. Because of technological limitations, he can't and he accepts this. He resigns himself to decorating his Lux Yacht. He calls his friends/guildmates together for a group/guild hunt on dantooine and offers to ferry them there with his highly decorated yacht. They all get inside and head to dantooine, enjoying the decorated atmosphere of the yacht as they head to dant to begin their hunt. Eventually, the groupparts ways and only a few of the player's friends/guildmates stay behind and they decide they want to hunt imperials in the player's highly upgraded faction multiplayer ship. Unfortunately, that player can't lanuch his highly upgraded ship until he empties his yacht of all items. The player can't lanuch the ship because if he did, their would be alot of "dead" database space because he has a decorated ship. However, lanuching just the yacht creates the same "dead" database space because their is still a ship in another multiplayer ship in his database so what's the difference? We can have 3 multiplayer ships in our database, but we can only decorate anduse onlythat decoratedmultiplayer ship. Which is a shame beacuse the player has the best multiplayer combat ship then any of the players in his galaxy and the best decorated ship in his galaxy as well but he can't use both. This problem ought to be cleared once we can designate 1 ship as decorated (like declaring residence) and the others can't be decorated so we can actually USE OUR OTHER MULTIPLAYER SHIP(S)!
I also want to bring up hyperdrive in the yachyt again. Could the hyderdrive come previously installed since the yachyt can't be upgraded? I just wanted to offer some possible solutions to this. Though i don't believe we should have to do this, but i wouldn't mind giving a lot (maybe 2, maybe) just to use our undecorated multiplayer ship.

CRUD!!!! Oh gosh i was out for like 30 days, please tell me since i have poured hundreds of dollars into galaxies that i dont get tha dang ship because i was off for 30 days??? if so i hate to be a pain but that is rediculous. You should base the vet system on who has been on for 6 months at 1 time, not in the last 6 months.
