What about Barges?

[Mr.Jamison]

It's entirely inRP reasonable to deny docking of a moon sized object on remote installations, where such giant and expensive to operate vessels would hardly if ever be found.

The Barge's infocard claims that deep space is it's intended purpose.
It makes sense that remote bases in wide open spaces would need larger deposits due to being too inaccessible for frequent smaller drops.
But then, it also makes inRP sense that House Govt's would restrict it's access to congested areas.

But, I agree that many bases would reject Barges if they had the ability to do so. (and they should)

"Designed and manufactured to serve in dark corners of space where the closest friendly base is but a memory; the Barge is a mobile factory, station and refinery designed to operate independently of external support...

Staggering operational and manufacturing costs prevent vessels of this type from being used for any but the most specific and urgent need, as its sheer bulk of size and intense jump hole destabilizing gravity well prevents it from being utilized in any environment but deep space."

In any case, the Barge definitely needs yellow strobes and a "Wide Load" sign on it's tail. :o)
