Naboo Royal Yacht
from "Star Wars - Episode II: Attack of the Clones" (2002)
About the Design
Small and sleek, the chrome-plated Naboo Royal Yacht was a small, unarmed personal transport for Senator Padme Amadala. Among Lucasfilm designers, this craft was considered to be the clearest homage to the finned "rocketships" of 1930s sci-fi that inspired the entire Naboo starship motif.
