Your starting crew.

Personal starcraft were extremely rare – governments and corporations traveled between the stars as they pleased, not us little people. Not hardly ever. But the lawyer said the will was clear – my mother had left me an old cargo hauler. Her first ship and now it was mine. Now I can travel the stars as I please. Now I can find out what really happened to her. —Maclean

The ship Northstar

The old ship — well in this case your Mother went from being an indy trader on the Northstar to working her way up the ranks of the Hudson's Bay Trade Corp to the point she was commanding a 2 mile long trade / factory ship touring the frontier when she disappeared — the least you could do is live up to that career arc in her original ship.
