A Mongoose 2e design. The TL16 J4 Brawny-Class Merchant Tender is an adventure class merchant tender that can carry 28 Type I 30-ton pods ( 840 tons total).
The Brawny line was designed with quick turnover in mind. Each stop should only run 72 hours, at most, if the system crew is on the ball. If they aren't, heads will surly roll as the schedule for these ships is everything.
As the crew will be worked hard, even with robots doing most of the work, they are treated very well, with individual staterooms, a gourmet kitchen, and a hot tub big enough for everyone. A robotic steward sees to their needs and keeps morale high.
