Coral Vanda

The Coral Vanda was a luxury submersible cruiser which operated in the famous oceans of Pantolomin.

Constructed locally by the Pantolomin Shipwrights collective, the Coral Vanda was one of the most sumptuous mobile hotels in the galaxy, rivalled only by the giant spaceliners of the Core Worlds. Offering a rota of excursions lasting three or five standard, these trips provided a stunning sightseeing tour. However, most of the people travelling aboard the Coral Vanda did so to gamble in one of the eight extravagant casinos, each of which featured its on theme, identity and unique game.

In 9 ABY, Generals Han Solo and Lando Calrissian visited the Coral Vanda while searching for information about the fabled Katana fleet. However, due to the duplicity of one of their sources, Solo and Calrissian were almost captured by Grand Admiral Thrawn's forces. Thrawn was later able to secure information on the Katana fleet by capturing Captain Hoffner, a passenger aboard the Coral Vanda.
