Using a custom 200-ton hull the frontier trader is a merchant ship often used by smugglers. It has jump drive-B, maneuver drive-D, and power plant-D, giving the ship performance of jump-2 and 4-G acceleration. Fuel tankage of 80 tons supports the power plant and allows one jump-2. Adjacent to the bridge is a Model/1/bis computer. There are five staterooms and no low berths. There are two double turrets installed with fire control; both mount two beam lasers. Cargo capacity is 41 tons. There is also one ton of hidden cargo space for smuggling. The hull is streamlined. The frontier trader has a crew of five: Pilot, Engineer, Medic and two Gunners. The ship costs MCr 103.727 and takes 12 months to build.

The ship is built using Book 2 Starships rules.
