The Erewon-class was a type of Federation civilian personnel transport operated during the 24th century that could be used as a colony ship. The Erewon-class was about four times larger than a Danube-class runabout.
Benjamin Sisko was familiar with this class of vessel, and immediately recognized the cannibalized hulk of one upon viewing the Cabin in 2370. (DS9: "Paradise")
Ships of the class[]
- SS Santa Maria (BDR-529)
The interior of the Erewon was designed by Production Illustrator Jim Martin. (DS9 Season 4 DVD special feature, "Jim Martin Sketchbook")
The name Erewon, spelled backwards and with an added "h," spelled "nowhere." The name comes from a fictional country in the 1872 novel Erewhon, written by Samuel Butler.
