Eravana

The Eravana  was a Baleen-class heavy freighter used for smuggling operations, piloted by Han Solo and Chewbacca. After losing the Millennium Falcon, Han and Chewie operated the Eravana for an unspecified number of years, making a fair amount of credits with their new ship, criss-crossing the galaxy smuggling cargo.

Skirmish aboard the Eravana
"What are you going to do?" "Same thing I always do, talk my way out of it."

- Rey and Han Solo

Han Solo's freighter, the Eravana, had been boarded by two notorious criminal factions, the Guavian Death Gang and Kanjiklub, whom Solo was indebted to. Not wanting Rey and Finn to be involved, Han placed both of them in the lower corridors of the freighter while he and Chewie went to meet with the criminals, with BB-8 accompanying them. The smuggler tried but failed to convince both parties that he would fix things eventually, with the Guavian Death Gang negotiator, Bala-Tik recognizing the BB-8 astromech droid from a First Order bounty placed on it. They demanded that Han hand over the droid and any stowaways he might have on board. As the scuffle continued, Rey accidentally released three rathtars. They successfully escaped the gangs and jumped into hyperspace in the Falcon. Bala-tik then ordered his men to inform the First Order that Han Solo and the droid unit were aboard the ship.

Behind the scenes
The Eravana appears in the 2015 film Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens. The design for the vessel was one of the last ones finalized, around the time that principal photography was wrapping up in late 2014.
