The basic ship you construct at the shipyard is free. It's useful for getting you around the galaxy, and you can add rooms inside it and customize quite a bit. However... To use the advanced space systems on Furscape, you must buy a hull. This will allow you to add weapons, armor, faster engines, and upgrade modules. Before you can earn money by trading and hauling cargo, or engage in combat, you must buy a hull. Once you have paid for your hull, it cannot be changed! Please examine this chart:
