==Overview==
Like their seabound equivalents, '''Yachts''' are small leisure spacecraft used by wealthy [[human]] civilians as personal transport and for long-duration cruises. [[UNSC Prowler]]s are often disguised as Yachts by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], as a cover for their activities and to avoid suspicion. Because of their limited capacity to sustain their naval forces, the [[United Rebel Front]] will also often retrofit such ships for military and wartime uses.<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 254</ref>
In the 21st-century, some oceanic vessels were also known as yachts. Both the oceanic and starship versions are considered status symbols.{{Ref/Reuse|encyc262}}


[[UNSC Prowler]]s are sometimes disguised as yachts by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] to avoid suspicion. The {{UNSCShip|Circumference}}, the {{UNSCShip|Apocalypso}},{{Ref/Reuse|encyc262}} the {{UNSCShip|Lark}}, and the {{UNSCShip|Applebee}} are all examples.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: The Fall of Reach|28}}
