I don't remember if "Starship Mine" actually said out loud that the ship was a Federation scout, though.<P>In any case, the ship seems to be in civilian use only, never seen in Starfleet hands. Why would a civilian vessel be called a "scout"? Wouldn't "yacht" sound more likely?

And I'd speculate that Starfleet probably just disposes of scoutships after about ten or twenty years, as I doubt there's much point giving them major refits when you can just build another more advanced one. If that's true, then I imagine the discards wind up in civilian use. They're small, useful, and presumably easy to manage and maintain.<P>------------------<BR>"When I was in prison I was wrapped up in all those deep books. That Tolstoy crap.
