The last ship produced by Gallofree Yards before its bankruptcy, the YKL-37R Nova Courier was a last ditch effort to save the struggling starship manufacturer. Intended to compete with Corellian Engineering’s series of light freighters, few Nova Couriers were sold prior to Gallofree Yards’ closure. Bankers overseeing the company’s liquidation auctioned off its vast stock of YKL-37Rs for bargain prices, many ending up in the hands of free traders, smugglers, and pirates. Unlike several of Gallofree’s previous freighters, which were plagued by problems, the Nova Courier is a reliable and well-armed vessel, something appreciated too late to save the troubled shipmaker. Though lacking the cargo capacity of other light freighters, the Nova Courier’s speed, handling, excellent stock armaments, and ease of maintenance and modification more than make up for that shortcoming.

The Write-Off is missing the stock concussion missile launchers, and has some slight damage to the hull and systems.
