Why the Naboo cruiser is better described as a yacht

The Naboo vessel illustrates the difference between a fictional ship's label and its naval function.

Notes

The Naboo vessel's cruiser label receives a direct objection: its function is that of a yacht. The criticism concerns the naval meaning of the ship's name rather than its appearance. A fictional label can obscure the role a vessel actually performs.
