What would you name your Runabout?

[elbarto]

Uss Montmorency, after a river in Quebec city with a Spectacular Falls

 

[PorthosShadow]

The USS Niles Crane.

 

[T'Girl]

U.S.S. Amazon ? Well they were named after great rivers ?

Or tall muscular women.

 

[Rarewolf]

I don't think the nearest river to me would really work - the River Exe.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

U.S.S. Amazon ? Well they were named after great rivers ?

Or tall muscular women.

Or online shops.

 

[DrCorby]

If I didn't have to have a river name, it would be the Runaround Sue. Just because it's a runabout.

Ooo, nice one! Although I now have the song stuck in my head. Thanks a lot...

If we're going to make second choices, I'd go with USS Cam. I remember with fondness a visit to Cambridge, long ago...

 

[Captain Verata]

I'll go with the USS Hudson, after the Hudson River in New York, where I was born.

Me too.

 

[AdmiralGarak]

Weyoun enjoys the maiden voyage of my Runabout, the USS Cuyahoga.

 

[Herkimer Jitty]

Otay, Sweetwater or San Dieguito, I guess.

 

[Finn]

Weyoun enjoys the maiden voyage of my Runabout, the USS Cuyahoga.

I'm not sure many would catch on with this one, but you picked this shot because the Cuyahoga once caught fire, right?

If by once, you mean a dozen times... than yes.

I think the primary material in Starfleet runabouts must be asbestos.

 

[VonFrank]

USS Humber
After the Humber River in Toronto, Canada.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

USS Humber
After the Humber River in Toronto, Canada.

Sounds like she has a sturdy Hull.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

USS Chattahoochee

 

[MacLeod]

Given the high attrition rate for the Danube Class, how long do you think it'll be before they run out of names?

 

[Jono]

Based on loses seen in DS9, it would take centuries for the class to run out of names just based on the number of named rivers in the state I live alone. The class would need to be suffering truly horrific losses, 100+ a year (we've seen nothing to suggest anything like that) for the naming theme to become an issue before the class reaches obsolescence.

 

[MacLeod]

The loss rate for Ruanbaouts stationed at DSN was around 33%.

 

[Finn]

The loss rate for Ruanbaouts stationed at DSN was around 33%.

Statistics lie.

Give us the hard data, how many did DS9 have, and how many were lost.? How often?

 

[od0_ital]

There were three runabout pads, right? And the only runabout to survive the full seven years of the series was the Rio Grande.

I'll let someone else do the math from there...
