Celestial crowned overall Sydney to Hobart yacht race winner after bitter 2021 loss almost saw skipper walk away

Celestial has been crowned overall winner of the annual Sydney to Hobart yacht race, taking home the Tattersall Cup after a fast and furious run down Tasmania's eastern coast.

Key points:

  • Gweilo placed second overall, with Caro and Warrior Won coming third and fourth
  • Skipper Sam Haynes said a penalty in last year's race that saw him place second almost made him step away from the sport
  • Andoo Comanche won line honours on Wednesday morning

The New South Wales boat arrived in Hobart on Wednesday, but the result was announced on Thursday afternoon after a redress hearing requested by another yacht.

It was a sweet moment of redemption for skipper and owner Sam Haynes, who had victory snatched away by a penalty in last year's race.

"I'm screaming loud and proud. It means everything, everything, especially after last year," he said.

"It's like an elation — it's huge for me and the crew. I can't believe it; it's a bit of a life-changer.

"If you look around, there are a lot of boats that can win this and you have to push extremely hard to get to … even to get in the top 10 is major.

"So we weren't expecting anything more than just being competitive and putting in a really good show."

Haynes said conditions had started off "pretty good" but became rougher on reaching Tasmania's east coast.

"We were getting a lot of heavy conditions and it was blowing hard from the north," he said.

"The sea was massive, there were really big waves coming over the boat, people getting washed around on the deck, and we had to obviously have all our safety equipment on."

Despite its win, Celestial almost did not even make the 77th edition of the race — a 40-minute penalty last year that saw it place second to Ichi Ban was devastating for Haynes.

An international jury ruled Celestial had breached rules that stipulated competitors must keep a continuous watch for radio contact.

Haynes said the loss almost saw him step away from the sport.

"Last year certainly hurt ... but we made a very conscious decision to come back and get back into it," he said.

"Last year was terrible, but this is one for the ages.

"It's a sport we love; we've got a great crew, and they stood by and really wanted to compete as hard as possible in this year's race.

"There are plenty of times, even on a good day, where you're looking at it and you think, 'Here I am at the bottom of the boat, soaking wet, tired ... why am I out here?'

"But it is a beautiful sport and I love the competition, I like the camaraderie of it as well, and I like the technicality of sailing and what it takes to make these boats the way they are.

"There are a lot of reasons to be in it."

Andoo Comanche takes line honours after two-boat tussle

Celestial's win was announced after a redress hearing requested by Enterprise Next Generation, which stood by the stricken yacht, Koa, which later retired with a broken rudder.

Fellow NSW yacht Gweilo placed second and New Zealand's Caro and the USA's Warrior Won placed second and third overall, respectively.

Line honours were taken out by Andoo Comanche after it triumphed in a two-boat tussle up the River Derwent early on Wednesday morning.

Favourable weather led to a speedy race this year, but it came down to the John Winning Jr-skippered supermaxi and LawConnect, which finished a little over 20 minutes later.

Black Jack followed closely behind the pair and all three chased each other down the east coast of Tasmania, hooked a sharp right turn around Tasman Island and closed in on Hobart in quick succession.

Comanche skipper John Winning Jr said the line honours win felt "pretty unbelievable at the moment" and was "still sinking in".

"I was on [line honours winner] Perpetual Loyal as one of the skippers in 2016 so I sort of know what to expect in terms of all of this," he said.

"But to do it in a campaign that I was part of putting together is really quite exceptional."

LawConnect crew member Gavin Smith said on Wednesday morning the team was exhausted but happy with the result.

"We were always hoping we would be able to catch them in the end, it was just a case that we didn't get there this year, but hopefully next year."

Although a number of other yachts have retired from the race, including White Noise, Mondo, Navy One, Sail Exchange and Huntress, it is a stark contrast to last year, when almost a quarter of entries dropped out before finishing.

Captain Kirke prepares Enterprise Next Generation for maiden east coast voyage

Captain Kirke prepares Enterprise Next Generation for maiden east coast voyage

The 2022 Noakes Sydney Gold Coast marks a welcome return to our blue water fleet for West Australian boats, following the challenges of border restrictions in recent years.

Antony Kirke will make the trek across the country with his crew from the west coast, returning to the Audi Centre Sydney Blue Water Pointscore for the first time since 2019, when he competed on his Farr 40, Enterprise .

This time he’ll be racing on his Botin Carkeek GP42, Enterprise Next Generation (the headlines write themselves!).

Having only had the boat for half a season, Kirke and co. wouldn’t have been quite ready for the 2021 Rolex Sydney Hobart, even if they had been able to make it across.

But now with a full season of offshore racing in the books and success in its home state, Enterprise Next Generation is raring to take on the east coast races.

"We wanted to make the step up into a faster boat," Kirke said. "There are a couple of GP42s in WA and they’re very suited to offshore conditions here, because there is quite a bit of reaching.

"Particularly when you go south, you generally get a pretty strong breeze for a return leg and the planing boats are very competitive in the weather conditions.

"The GP is a very exciting boat to sail compared to the Farr, it really gets up in the sea breeze."

Kirke last raced to the Gold Coast on Enterprise  in 2018, finishing 9th on IRC. That year, he was named the CYCA’s Ocean Racing Rookie of the Year.

To the 2022 race, Kirke brings some of the crew from his Farr 40 and recent additions, including those picked up from the crew of Indian, which was sold late last year.

Paul Eldrid, the former Boat Captain on Indian , offers plenty of offshore racing experience as the Navigator of Enterprise Next Generation , while Kirke skippers alongside Andrew Nuttman (also a co-owner in the GP42).

"We’ve done the Ocean Racing WA Siska Series with 13 crew and 11 on the boat, so we’ve had very good consistency," Kirke said.

"We’ll have 10 of that crew with us for most of the Blue Water Pointscore and that makes a huge difference.

"We’ve had two full seasons over the last couple of years. There have been a couple of times where it looked like we might get locked down, but the offshore program has been pretty uninterrupted."

yacht enterprise next generation

Enterprise Next Generation , which sails out of Fremantle Sailing Club has been on the hardstand with rudder and keel out, in preparation for the trip to Sydney in late June.

"We’re doing a bit of work on the boat and there are a few upgrades we’re doing, including upgrading the winches," Kirke said. "The boat is extremely sensitive to backstay.

"We’re pretty happy with the performance of the boat, but weight is critical. One thing we’ve seen with carbon 40-footers is you’ve got to be careful not to put too much weight on them when you go offshore.

"We’re putting a watermaker on so we’re not carrying too much water. We’ve got to pay attention to detail to try and keep weight down on the boat; it does affect the planing performance.

"We’ve played a bit with the rating and I think we’re looking pretty good. We’re very happy with how we’re going."

Kirke says Enterprise Next Generation will "certainly be stepping into a pretty competitive" arena during the east coast campaign in 2022.

"But that’s the idea!"

On the USS Enterprise -D , the name of the captain 's yacht was the Calypso .

On the USS Enterprise -E , the name of the captain's yacht was the Cousteau . In 2375 , the crew of the USS Enterprise -E used the Cousteau to travel to the surface of the Ba'ku planet . ( TNG : " New Ground ", okudagram ; Star Trek: Insurrection )

The California -class USS Cerritos also carried a captain's yacht . ( LD : " Terminal Provocations ", " No Small Parts ", " First First Contact ")

Background information [ ]

Designer Andrew Probert came up with the concept of the captain's yacht while designing the USS Enterprise -D . Although it was never seen in use, it was labeled on the master systems display screen in main engineering and on Commander William T. Riker 's bridge console ("New Ground"), docked at the bottom of the saucer section almost directly opposite the main bridge . Probert suggested possible ways for the yacht to be used during the first season , including not showing the yacht but mentioning it in dialogue, but his ideas were rejected. The Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual (p. 164) claims that the producers almost used the yacht in TNG : " Samaritan Snare ", but decided to use an " executive shuttlecraft " due to budgetary constraints. According to Patrick Stewart , the yacht would have been called Calypso . ( Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual , p. 164) This name for the yacht was mentioned in the notes to the captain's yacht entry of the Star Trek Encyclopedia , 3rd ed., p. 83. With the latest edition of the Star Trek Encyclopedia , 4th ed., vol. 1, p. 117, the name has been changed to Cousteau .

A captain's yacht is visible on the underside of several Nebula -class starships, such as the USS Phoenix and USS Prometheus as well.

Rick Sternbach designed similar craft into the USS Voyager and the USS Equinox , known as the aeroshuttle and the waverider , respectively. Like on the Enterprise -D, however, these vessels were only depicted on technical schematics and never seen in operation or referred to in dialogue.

Ronald B. Moore notes in the Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual that naval tradition would insist on calling such a craft the Captain's gig rather than the Captain's yacht.

In the 1969 UK Comic strip series , the dome at the bottom of the saucer section of the Constitution -class USS Enterprise is also seen detaching as a similar auxiliary vehicle.

How ‘Star Trek: Picard’ Resurrected an Iconic Set

By Scott Mantz

Star Trek: Picard

SPOILER ALERT:   This story discusses major plot developments in Season 3, Episode 9 of “ Star Trek: Picard ,” currently streaming on Paramount+.

All season long, the producers of “ Star Trek: Picard ” have boldly pulled out all the stops to make the third and final season one for the books. To that extent, it seemed like only a matter of time until we finally got to see the Enterprise — that is, the Enterprise-D, the Galaxy-class starship that made its first appearance in 1987 with the premiere episode of “ Star Trek: The Next Generation .”

Popular on Variety

Related stories, is netflix about to turn into a franchise factory, 'bad actor: a hollywood ponzi scheme' review: a dull documentary about a fascinating showbiz grifter.

Executive producer Terry Matalas went through hoops to make sure history never forgot the name Enterprise. Speaking with Variety, and sharing photos of “The Next Generation” cast on the ship, Matalas says, “Everyone tried to talk us out of doing this, because financially it’s a nightmare, and the timing was tight. To the moment we started filming, we were still gluing pieces together. But you can’t have a ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation’ reunion without one of its major characters, which is the Enterprise.”

As for how it was even possible for the Enterprise-D to exist after it was virtually destroyed in 1994’s “Star Trek: Generations” (only the top saucer section was still intact after crash-landing on the planet Veridian III), it turns out Geordi La Forge took it upon himself to completely restore it for the Starfleet Museum.

However, despite the prominent presence of the Enterprise-D bridge on seven seasons of the TV series that ran from 1987 to 1994 (as well as the 1994 “Generations” feature film), construction guidelines were scarce for production designer Dave Blass and art director Liz Kloczkowski, who spearheaded the project.

Blass pivoted to another invaluable resource when he recruited “Star Trek” legends Mike Okuda and Denise Okuda (from Herman Zimmerman’s “Next Generation” production design team) as consultants.

“The Enterprise from ‘The Next Generation’ was the first Enterprise on which I was the principal graphic designer,” Okuda says. “I got to work with [‘Star Trek’ creator] Gene Roddenberry on making that bridge come to life.”

But even with that deep-dive knowledge and experience, finding the source materials to reconstruct the bridge still proved to be a daunting challenge.

“The first thing we did was to go in the garage and dive into boxes and see what we still had,” Okuda says. “We had some original drawings and art, but large chunks of it disappeared. You realize you’re going to have to reconstruct a lot of this from scratch.”

It took three months and a team of around 50 people to completely rebuild the bridge, which was a physical build and not done on a green screen or in VFX. It measured exactly the same as the original set: 50 feet wide and 100 feet long.

All this work was in addition to every other set built for Seasons 2 and 3, which were shot back to back. “We were doing all the interiors of the starship Titan – like the bridge, the transporter rooms, the crew quarters, the hallways and sickbay – as well as [the enemy ship] the Shrike, Daystrom Station and the Borg,” says Blass. “So, all that all on top of each other.”

The goal was to re-create the look of the LCARS panels, as closely as possible to their appearance in “Star Trek: The Next Generation.”

“We took advantage of the huge advances in real-world computer display technology to make a few subtle upgrades to the displays,” Okuda says. “In a scene where one of our officers is using the science equipment, if the director wanted to show the scan itself, we would have had to insert the animation in post-production, back in the day. Now, it’s easy to do the animation and have it play back on the set, so the cast could see it in real-time.”

When it came to challenges, Blass says, the wood archway was one of the hardest pieces to recreate. “It’s a complex curve that arches and changes thickness,” he explains. “You can only get so much information off a blueprint. The construction team printed out a full-size paper plan to lay it out and then used a number of templates to shape the final piece.”

The chairs were another set piece in recreating the Enterprise-D that needed to be taken into consideration. “We had to sculpt the right shape based on the basic form, then do a deep dive on the right materials that have the right color and texture,” Blass says. “Each chair has four different materials.”

Blass adds that the infamous carpet, referenced by Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard in the episode, “was very hard to find as it’s a pattern that has been out of stock for decades.”

“That was tricky because you’re talking about lighting that was much more intrinsic to the 1990s,” Matalas says. “Now we have different cameras in a different cinematic style to the show. We had to find a hybrid of the old style and the new with our director of photography, John Joffin, and I think we found a really great sweet spot.”

When the cast saw the bridge for the first time, they got right down to business.

“This season was so ambitious, and we only had two days to shoot on this thing,” Matalas says. “It was literally, like, get everybody on, you got your four minutes of nostalgia, and then we have to boogie. But it was all very natural for them. It was like being back on Stage 8 at the Paramount lot. Patrick Stewart even did the ‘Picard maneuver,’ which he was very proud of.”

And what of the ship today?

Their work remains intact. “There were lots of interested parties who wanted to save the set,” Blass says. “Luckily it has a home in the Star Trek archives.”

Forgotten Trek

The Unseen Enterprise-D

Star Trek: The Next Generation already required more sets than the average television show. It had to cannibalize whatever it could from the motion pictures and Gene Roddenberry wrote two superfluous scenes in main engineering into “Encounter at Farpoint”, knowing that such a large set might never be built if it wasn’t required for the pilot.

Inevitably many parts of the Enterprise -D went unseen: the main shuttlebay, the many observation lounges that presumably line the saucer, Cetacean Ops…

Fortunately we can draw on the work of Star Trek veterans and fans to get a more complete picture of the Galaxy -class starship. Here is a tour of the unseen Enterprise -D.

Main shuttlebay

Enterprise-D main shuttlebay deck plan

For budget reasons, The Next Generation never showed the enormous main shuttlebay that is supposed to take up the bulk of Decks 3 and 4 in the saucer section.

Rick Sternbach, who had worked as an illustrator on Star Trek: The Motion Picture , and who would go on to design many of the props and starships that appeared in The Next Generation and Voyager , drew up the layout of the main shuttlebay in the Star Trek: The Next Generation U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D Blueprints , which were at least partly based on the blueprints Ed Whitefire had prepared earlier in the 1990s but which weren’t licensed.

It shows a vast complex with about two dozen shuttles, a bunch of workbees, repair shops, fueling stations, cargo processing bays and a central control tower.

Rob Bryan and Stage 9 studio visualized the main shuttlebay for their aborted virtual-reality tour of the Enterprise -D. Unfortunately, CBS put a stop to their project, citing copyright, but we still have the pictures .

Enterprise-D main shuttlebay

Andrew Probert allocated many windows on the Enterprise -D model for observation decks. Having such a large vessel with families, singles, lovers and loners aboard, Probert envisioned those areas as comfortable places where people could go and relax.

“They were simply lounges,” he told Trekplace in 2005, “and they were different sized, ranging from a two-person lounge to a fourteen-person lounge, where you could have family gatherings or parties and they would all be very darkly lit, so you wouldn’t get gross window reflections, allowing you to see outside a lot easier.”

Some of those lounges were seen in the first season, including a small four-person lounge in “Encounter at Farpoint” (which was a redress of Dr Crusher’s office) and a Starboard Lounge in the episode “Justice” (for which the crew quarters’ set was used).

After Ten Forward premiered in the second season, no other lounges were seen anymore.

Enterprise-D lounge

Stage 9 as well as Jason B., whose similar Enterprise-D Construction Project was also shut down by CBS, gave us a glimpse of what might have been. They put small lounges on the lower Deck 1, in front of the bridge, a Two Forward behind the large observation windows on Deck 2 and a Nine Forward above Ten Forward in the front of the saucer.

Enterprise-D lounge art

Probert envisioned another lounge behind the four large windows in the underside of the saucer section. He provided Trekplace with a mockup of what this would look like.

Sternbach instead placed a secondary deflector dish in this area in his Star Trek: The Next Generation U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D Blueprints .

Observation Lounge ramp

A ramp is meant to connect the Enterprise bridge with the observation lounge, which is situated about half a deck lower.

In the real world, the reason we never saw direct scenes between the two sets is that they were disconnected. Picard’s ready room, by contrast, really was adjacent to the bridge.

Enterprise-D bridge ramp

In Stage 9’s visualization, the ramp became a small staircase flanked by relief sculptures of previous ships named Enterprise . These were initially mounted on the wall of the observation lounge but disappeared between the fourth and the fifth seasons.

Cetacean Ops

Cetacean Ops is referred to twice on the show — in “The Perfect Mate” and “Yesterday’s Enterprise”. In the Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual , Sternbach and Michael Okuda write that the section is home to several dolphins and two whales, who aid the Enterprise in its navigation.

In the Blueprints , Sternbach places Cetacean Ops on Decks 13 and 14 in the forward section of the saucer.

Enterprise-D Cetacean Ops deck plan

Probert put the section on Deck 7 of another Galaxy -class starship in his concept art for Star Trek Online in December 2005.

Medical Deck

Probert’s main contribution to Star Trek Online was the design of a large medical deck.

Galaxy-class medical deck concept art

With up to one thousand people on board, a Galaxy -class starship could hardly suffice with the four biobeds and one surgical theater we saw on the show.

In the episode “Tapestry”, it is revealed there are in fact three sickbay wards on the ship. “Ethics” makes reference to private recovery rooms. Other episodes mention a diagnostics center, medical labs, a morgue and a nursery.

Enterprise-D sickbay deck plan

Probert’s design includes many of these facilities as well as a spacious reception area. Gareth John Williams visualized two of Probert’s sketches.

Click here to learn more about the Galaxy -class medical deck that wasn’t.

Sternbach places all medical facilities on Deck 12 in his Blueprints . The sickbay we see on the show is only a small “primary ICU” of a much larger complex that includes a biohazard ICU, isolation rooms, surgical suite and trauma stasis unit.

Other areas Probert designed for Star Trek Online included an archeology and a geology lab.

Galaxy-class archeology lab concept art

Ed Whitefire placed a five deck-high mall or “grotto” in the front of the saucer section that seems to have been intended as a mix of arboretum and recreation deck. I don’t believe anybody has visualized it.

Whitefire placed a large, two-deck-high “organic storage” facility behind the large blue windows that are below the doors of the main shuttlebay on Decks 5 and 6. Sternbach, in his Blueprints , puts the arboretum here, as does Alexander Richardson , although the arboretum seen in “Data’s Day”, “Imaginary Friend” and “Dark Page” didn’t have large windows. Maybe that was only part of a larger complex, though?

Enterprise-D

Probert told Trekplace in 2005 that he designed those windows for observation lounges.

Ryan T. Riddle and Mark Farinas place a large arboretum in the back of the saucer of their Ambassador -class starship in “ The Word of God ” with a lobby reminiscent of Probert’s design for Star Trek Online .

The Word of God panel

Computer Cores

“Evolution” showed us a computer access room, but the cores themselves (the Enterprise -D is supposed to carry three) were never seen.

Enterprise-D computer access room

In his concept art for Star Trek Online , Probert places two computer cores side by side in the saucer section. The third is in the stardrive section.

Captain’s yacht

Enterprise-D captain's yacht art

Probert included a “captain’s yacht” in the bottom of the saucer, which Picard could presumably use for personal missions. He volunteered several ideas to show it in the first season of The Next Generation , but budgetary constraints made this impossible.

The only view of the yacht, called Calypso , we have is from Probert’s contribution to the 2010 Ships of the Line calendar. If you look closely, you can see Captain Picard sipping tea behind one of the windows as his yacht is being hauled in.

Great writeup. It’s a damned shame CBS gave Stage 9 a cease-and-desist. I loved being able to walk through the decks of the big D.
It’s plain the ones in charge of CBS have little to no love for the actual show, and what the show has inspired. Way to alienate fans. Stage 9 is rocking, and they even though it’s unfinished, the potential is great. If CBS had a single functioning brain cell they would get in on it and fund it. As it is, they do not deserve to own Star Trek . The Galaxy -class design is supremely elegant, awesome in every way, and completely beautiful. Best design hands down. They should finish Stage 9 – on the basis that it is not about profit, but about love for the show that Roddenberry loved, worked on, and inspired.
Excellent article, cool pics, love the D.
This is great, thank you for putting this together. Really fleshes things out even more, makes it more real, and still so long after how much we love it!
This is great!! Lots of extra details.
Wonderful. Now ILM’s first Enterprise -D study model was quite different as per Memory Alpha . What happened to that model?

Andrew Probert always wanted to redesign the Enterprise. He'd gotten his hands on it once, when he was working on the Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Then, he'd updated the ship, working with some modifications that had already been made up by Matt Jefferies and Joe Jennings, and he didn't have the chance to create a new version. After his job interview with the TNG producers, he felt there was a good chance he might finally get to design his own version of the famous vessel. He couldn't wait to hear whether he'd got the job or not, and started drawing as soon as he got home. He remembers that he that he wanted to make the ship look more advanced and to give it a sense of movement.

Probert says, "I was so pumped up that I started right in, sketching my little heart out. Knowing that the new series was to be at least a hundred years hence (which later got changed to 85 years), I felt that it would be faster and probably sleeker if there was any influence from hyperlight dynamics. At least it should be more elegant, I felt. The saucer had, since its inception, been the main section, so I made it larger in proportion to the secondary or engineering hull. I previous designs the warp nacelles were always to the rear but above the saucer rim, which visually seemed to give them equal importance, and physically placed them above the ship's center of mass. Both of these seemed to be negative point, which I hoped to remedy by lowering them to a position between the two hull sections. This would place them closer to the ship's center of mass. Also, the struts holding the saucer and warp engines were slanted in opposite directions; the saucer is going forward, engines going back. That wasn't bad but it created a slight visual conflict, so I slanted them all forward to unify their direction and give the orverall design a feeling of aggressive forward movement, like a lunging cat. The view from the front of the old ship produced a variety of shapes. I took my design theme from the saucer and started sketching every component as a compressed oval."

The producers were concerned with the main bridge, Probert always believe the it is important to have the interiors match the exteriors, so he brought in one of the sketches he felt was working and pinned it up on the wall so he could analyze it as he worked on the ship's nerve center. David Gerrold [writer and producer] walked in and said, 'Hey, is that the new ship?' Of course, I told him I didn't know if it was or not, because I hadn't shown it to anybody. He pulled it off the wall and continued on to his meeting with Gene and the other producers. He held the drawing up and said, 'What do you think of this?' and they all liked it. He came back and slapped it on my table and said, 'Yep, that's the new ship.' I was flabbergasted. I'd never heard of a design going through that quickly, and it was very close to what I ended up producing."

The overall design may not have changed much, but there was one very important thing Probert didn't know about the new Enterprise - the producers actually wanted it to separate into two sections. Unfortunately, his new design really lend itself to this. The situation was complicated because Probert misinterpreted their original brief. "The way they described it was that the Enterprise would have a battle section that would separate from the ship. I thought, 'Now you tell me!' I'm thinking, 'Hmm, a battle section that would leave the ship.' I thought maybe it was like an auxiliary craft or something that separated to go off and fight battles. What I came up with was a shape like the letter D. If you lay that down on top of the saucer with the round part toward the front and then extend the serifs, those would be two warp engines. This thing would be nestled into the top of the saucer and it would separate to go fight the battles.

When I showed this to them they said, 'No, no. What'll happen is the saucer separared and the engineering hull then becomes the battle section.' So I have this dorsal sculpted into the saucer and now I have to seperate that and still make it look good both ways, which was an extraordinary chanllenge. I started playing with it and I found if I left part of the saucer on the dorsal then it could be a very broad mounting point for the saucer as well as hopefully making the engineering hull look a little better." Probert new there was a precedent for the idea of a saucer seperate; in "The Apple," Kirk tells Scotty that, if he has to, he should break out of orbit with the main section. In fact, Probert always assumed that the original Enterprise had landing gear. "Popular opinion indicated that the two triangular points on the underside of the saucer are actually two landing legs; the third one would be in the dorsal cavity, so the saucer would have tricycle landing gear for planet landing. Carrying that into Star Trek: The Motion Picture Enterprise I designed four landing pads on the underside of the saucer. When I did the , I started to do that and was distracted away from it and that poor ship eventually paid the price!" Once the separation sequence had been sorted out, Probert wasn't asked to make any more drastic modifications to his design. However, he says that Gene was concerned by the length of the warp nacelles.

"My drawing had very short nacelles because I wanted to indicate that stardrive technology had become more powerful. It's like television today; they can make them to fit inside a watch. That's sort of what I based my thinking on: the face that you could have warp drive in a new, smaller container. Gene wasn't comfortable with that because he was so used to those huge warp engines from the original series that this seemed underpowered to him, so he said, 'Make the engines a little bit longer.' I made them as little longer as I could because if you look at that side view you'll see that there's an echoing of shapes. I'm going from the saucer doral curving forward into the saucer and then I was going from the pylons curving forward into the nacelles. They are at the same angle. My whole intent was to unify all of those shapes; I wanted to give it a forward lunge for the saucer and a forward lunge for the engines, but Gene still wanted the engines to extend out the back as well." Gene's only other change was to put the bridge back on the top of the saucer, as it had been in the original Star Trek. Probert already put a window here, and adding the bridge simply created a small bump. As Probert explains, he'd already made his own change to the underside of the saucer. "In the original show the dome on the bottom of the ship was a sensor array. What I did was move the sensor array to more of a surrounding detail, leaving the dome on the bottom free. That's where I put the captain's yacht, which is a private vessel for dignitaries and captains of ships to use as personal shuttles. That was never used in the show. At one point there was a script where Picard was returning to the ship and the dialogue was, 'The captain's shuttle is on the way back. Crew members, man your stations.' Then the captain comes aboard. We never ever have a visual, so I suggested mentioning the yacht, but they decided against it." Nevertheless, the captain's yacht became an established feature on modern Starfleet ships. We finally got to see one in action in Star Trek: Insurrection; the USS Voyager has a similar vessel, and Rick Sternbach has put them on the Starfleet ships he's designed, up to and including the USS Equinox.

There are a few other details that Probert built into his Enterprise that have puzzled people. In particular, he says, a lot of people have asked him about the vartical windows in saucer section; specifically, they wanted to know how big they are. "They would scale out to about three and a half feet across and their length would vary according to what deck they were on. The way that I came up with that originally was that, if you think of a porthole on an ocean liner, it's usually set at an average height of around five feet, so any normal-sized person could look out of it. I started with that, but such a radical angle my thinking was, 'Where do put a porthole so everybody, short or tall, could look out?' The solution I came up with was to have a verticle porthole so people of any size could use it." Other elements of Probert's Enterprise were finalized only when the model was built. For example, he says, the surface texture came out of several trips to ILM's model shop. "We were finishing up details on the Enterprise so there were periodic flights up to ILM. Bob Justman asked me to put in a lot up there and reviewed the finishes on the existing models, and when Bob saw the Excelsior he liked it because it had indications of this plating. That idea started in Star Trek: The Motion Picture; my art director Richard Taylor thought a subtle plating pattern would add to the realism of the ship, and they carried that through. I figured out that the plating on the Excelisor scaled out to as eight inches across, so when I did the Enterprise I had fairly large panels using the pattern from the Enterprise-A. But one of the producers had them break that up to make the ship look bigger."

One thing has probably caused more debate than else: the Enterprise's color. The model is very definitely blue, but on screen the ship is gray. Probert explains that there is a very good reason for this. "The fans were very concern that we were replacing the original series. In order to soften some of the anxiety I wanted the two ships to be colored basically the same. Well, because of the low degree of technology compared to today, when the original Enterprise (which was actually a warm pearl gray) was filmed it picked up a lot of the blue spill [light used in the visual effects process] and therefore became bluish. What I did was indicate that the paneling of the be painting in two shades of blue. One is a duck egg blue, and the other is kind of a sky blue, which is the base color the hobby kits are molded in. By mixing the two blues together I was hoping cinematically that there would be a close tie-in with the color of the original ship." However, the blue was neutralized when the ship was filmed, leaving it the familiar gray.
