Bearing only an outward resemblance to her 'sister' craft Starbug 1, Starbug 2 is specifically designed and constructed to serve as a lodging vessel for television show crews on especially large contracts. However, there is sufficient cargo space and facilities available that she can be used when there are two separate but concurrent show contracts to be filled. Her first 'role' was bringing a crew along for a special series of 'Long Way' with Ewan MacGregor and Charley Boorman.
Known Vehicle Quirks
- Don't Rush Me!:' Anytime anyone on board is in a hurry to get moving, the engines take 50% longer to actually cycle up than normal.
- Watching My Knickers Spin Dry:' Doing laundry in the provided facilities on board ship will shrink a random pair of boxers, or, if everyone on board prefers briefs, will replace a pair of briefs with boxers, usually with no discrimination for gender or preferences.
