Stats for the x-boat?

Does anyone know where the stats are for x-boat? Or have an idea of what they should be like?

As far as I can tell, the comet hull configuration hasn't changed.

Batteries, that's new.

Everybody's got here before me. So I'll just post pictures of the Lightbulb Fleet.

Never mind the typos.

One of those illustrations got me thinking.

What if the lower part of the x-boat - the drive section - opens like flower petals to prepare for jump.

Oh. and you can stick solar panels to the inside of the petals for emergency power post jump.

Solar coating could now come as standard, and even reflec. X-boats aren't supposed to be built for stealth; anything that can make them stand out to the sensor packages of X-boat tenders, really.

Solar coating plus batteries.

Though, if it's not moving, solar panelling.

If I recall correctly, there used to be a solar sail.
