"The design of this ship is that of a diplomatic or passenger craft. It's highly unlikely that it would have the necessary loading equipment aboard."

―Commander Thrawn^[4]

The H-type Nubian yacht, also known as the Naboo yacht,^[7] was a small yacht used by the Naboo. While not heavily armed, they were equipped with a strong deflector shield.^[5] Senator Padmé Amidala used at least two H-types during the Fall of the Republic, which bore silver coating to denote her status as former Queen of Naboo. One was flown from Naboo to Tatooine to help Anakin Skywalker find his mother, and then to Geonosis to rescue Obi-Wan Kenobi; later also being used during the Battle of the Kaliida Nebula^[8] and another during her mission to Rodia,^[9] though in both cases the yachts were destroyed.^[8]^[9] One was used by Jedi Master Kelleran Beq to escape Coruscant with Grogu.^[10] During the Imperial Era, the former handmaiden Sabé used one.^[11]

Behind the scenes

While Star Wars Encyclopedia of Starfighters and Other Vehicles states that it had a hyperdrive class of .9 and was manufactured by the Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps,^[1] Unlimited Power instead states that it had a primary hyperdrive class of 1 and was manufactured by Nubia Star Drives, Incorporated. This article assumes that, as an RPG product, Unlimited Power is in error.^[2]
