Boys and girls, I seek some registry numbers, and this seems like the right place to ask. What I am seeking is canon answers, or the lack thereof. Please label all conjecture as such. Anyway:
USS Centaur, Centaur Class USS CHallenger, Challenger Class USS Cotez, Class unknown -- missing presumed destroyed after Operation Return USS Destiny, Class unknown -- Ezri Dax served on her USS Farragut, Excelsior Class USS Honshu, Nebula Class USS Majestic, Miranda Class USS Olympia, Class unknown USS Saratoga, Class unknown, docked at DS9 USS Sarek, Class unknown -- part of Operation Return USS Sentinel, Class Unknown USS Shenandoah, Danube Class -- lost sd51825 USS Sitak, Miranda Class -- destroyed retaking DS9 USS Ticonderoga, Class unknown -- was part of the blockade of the Romulan/Klingon border USS T'Kumbra, Nebula Class

USS Centaur NCC 39412 (from http://www.shipschematics.net USS Challenger, Challenger Class... Don't know probably something with NCC 575**... or the Galaxy-Class version NCC 70637 USS Honshu NCC 60205 USS Majestic NCC 31860 USS Saratoga maybe the replacement has the same registry NCC 31911 USS Shenandoah NCC 73024
thats all i can give you! I think the rest of them were only mentioned in certain episodes and nobody at paramount thought a registry was necessary.

Well, for the Ticonderoga, wasn't that only in the 2nd edition Encyclopedia: revised sectioin. Supposedly it was in ST: Insurrection, but it was never mentioned on screen. No class or registry, although there is a theory that it was Admiral Dougherty's ship, and the scout ship was assigned to it, in which case the smaller's ship registry would be the Ticonderoga's. As for the Challenger. There are at least 2 ships, possibly three. Two official ones are the Galaxy and the one from Operation Retrieve in ST 6. I don't have my list with me, but I believe the reg. was something like 20xx. The latter ship may be the prototype, although evidence is now pointing otherwise, considering the huge jump in registry numbers.
Nemesis, I'm not sure if shipsschematics is canon, I don't think there is an official registry for the Centaur just, yet. But I may be wrong. ------------------ "I just want to set the record straight: I thought the officer was a prostitute"- Homer Simpson

Argh, you're right with the Challenger! I looked on the wrong column! Sorry spyone, my mistake! As for the Centaur, you're also right...but i think the registry is quite fitting, but not canon. I wonder why the Ticonderoga was mentioned in the Ency, as i can recall it was only mentioned in the Insurrection Book. Anyway, i hope i could help you.

thank you all for your efforst, and please continue.
I took the notation that the number for USS Centaur came from Starship Schematics to mean you would not vouch for its canon status, and I welcome such speculation.
Ticonderoga, in my 3rd edition Encyclopedia, is described as appearing in Insurrection, and I imagine the Okudas are chagrinned that it did not.

Of course, we can always say that the nameless scout NCC-75227 was actually named the Ticonderoga... Or, more seriously speaking, that she was attached to the Ticonderoga, NCC-75227, as an auxiliary, and left behind for Dougherty to play with when the Tico sailed out before the events of the movie.
There was lots and lots of material filmed for "Insurrection" but cut from the final release, and I have no doubt the Ticonderoga was mentioned in one version and wasn't just an invention of the novelist. It's unlikely that we'll ever see an extended version including this scene, though (since the cut scenes mostly included even more bad jokes in the style of Worf's pimple).

Well what Timo said was my initial theory as well. Since the engines of a ship have to be modified for travel in the Briar Patch it would be a whole lot easier to do it on a small craft's engine than the entire ship.
