The below is something a character wants to create for himself because he is getting paranoid about the other shoe dropping. I like the concept and in RL have seen "some" examples of refitted trawlers. Not cheap by any means but then what is in this game?

Fishing trawler

Description:

The “Laughing Nymph” is a Mahasagar's 52' Combination/Outrigger Trawler of 16-21 day fishing voyage capability. The outward appearance of the vessel bespeaks a lifetime spent on the high sea. This “appears” to be a working trawler from the last century that has been scroupesly maintained. In other words it looks like any other small, family fishing vessel in the harbor from the outside. On the inside its a different matter. Both the Fishhold and crew accommodations have been removed and remodeled. The Fishhold and crew accommodations have been replaced with the equivalence of a medium sized apartment designed for 2 or possibly three inhabitants. All electronics have been upgraded and a computer system has been installed.

Statistics:

Basic Specifications:

Length: 52'
Beam: 17'
Displacement: 34 m.tons(empty), 58 m.tons(fully loaded)
Fuel oil cap: 16 KL
Freshwater cap: 8 KL
Winch: Triple drum mechanical/hydraulic drive

Crew accommodation:
for two to three (Medium life style size and accommodations)

Electronic equipment:
includes Radar, Sonar, Satellite uplink-phone/communication, GPS and weather doppler. The vessel is fully automated so that one person can safely crew it for extended trips (16 to 21 days duration)

Computer:
Green - 5 Barrier - 4, Matrix access only when in port. Systems primary tasks are navigation and security.

Engine:
Twin 250hp marine diesel

Security:
Re-enforced Doors and walls with Maglocks that operate off of thumbpad verification (Rating eight), location violation alarm system linked to non-lethal intrusion counter measures. Video surveillance camera’s linked to on board computer system. There is also a safe in the master bedroom with a maglock outfitted with retinal and thumbpad scanner (rating ten) Integral bug detector and white noise generator.

Obviously this is going to cost the player a lot but if I let him do it then I don't feel so bad when his primary home gets blown to drek by the teams latest enemy. What do you all think?
