Aquatics OXP

The Manta Ray in flight.

Overview

My first released OXP, introducing the product line from the Aquarian Shipbuilding Corporation of Aqualina in Galaxy 3.

A new range of ships for a wide variety of uses and credit accounts. Also a new replacement station is added to Aqualina (the former colony of Ribiara), and a mission can be undertaken there for a suitably experienced (Dangerous) commander.
