Gifting a ship

[scottydog]

Hello! i would like to return a kindness and give one of my ships to a new player.

This ship was given to me and i would like to pay it forward.

How do i do this?  Regards from Thomas.

You both have to have an outpost in the port.

You (the one giving the ship) have to have an extra ship in that port because you can't trade the ship you're on. If you need to, temporarily get on a basic cutter.

Initiate a trade (right click their name in chat, select trade). They agree.

In the window where you normally choose the materials to trade, there is a button to select a ship. Click this and choose the ship you what to give. (If you don't see it, that means you are on it and need to switch to a different one).

You both just "accept" all the way through.
