This towing vessel is a commercial craft, designed for towing a mining plant, processing unit or the like, or for towing x-boats and other manoeuvre-incapable ships out to jump distance. It has Jump Drive 2, Manoeuvre Drive 2G and Powerplant VIII. There is fuel tankage for 40 tons, giving one Jump 1 and allowing the use of the powerplant. The standard bridge has a Model/7 computer installed; this larger-than-usual computer is required to serve the additional thrust plates which are attached to the trailer. There are 4 single crew cabins on board and 4 double crew cabins. The ship is partially streamlined, having a roughly oblong-shaped configuration, with a robot arm, a set of grapnels and an umbilical hook-up. The Conrad class requires a crew of 8; commander, pilot, navigator, engineer, medic, and three general hands. This towing vessel costs MCR44.08 and takes 12 standard months to build.
