Do you happen to know the name of the ship 1157?
Unfortunately, I haven't gotten past the first trade due to lack of funding.

Very interesting ship. I've never seen it before, and it's unlikely that anyone has statted it yet. You are more than welcome to write up some of your own and we can help you with it.

Based just on the image, I can make a guess that it has room for 2-3 crew and very little cargo space, along with middle-to-high speed. There isn't any really obvious weaponry apart from what could be weapons on either side of the boarding ramp on the forward edge. I would suggest making it either an armed scout or a blastboat of some kind. Based on some visual similarities with KDY's A-9 Vigilance Interceptor, you could potentially make it a KDY product.

I'd be more inclined to say armed scout than blast boat.
It appears as though it might be fast, but not nimble; 1-2 crew, maybe 3 passengers, not much for cargo space...

I don't agree on the agility. Having the engines out at the edges of the ship actually facilitates lateral turns (cut thrust for a fraction of a second to one or the other and the entire ship spins on its axis).

Widely spaced engines also raises combat damage resistance (hull rating, not due to armour plating but due to structural layout).

Being distant post Endor EU as well means it's in E-Wing/Vigilance era where starships in general have a higher performance marque than the Rebel era. So I'd say, quite fast, tough, 1-2 crew and 3 passengers sure, looks about right. Engines that big in a package that small probably doesn't have massive consumables, so an armed short range scout (not deepspace scout) with 1-2 months consumables.
It looks like it's got a pair of heavy twin cannon mounts either side of the ramp with an extensive sensor array between them, so high stats on those too. Hyperdrive is probably quick, x1 or better considering who owns it.

5-6 people would be pretty cramped in a hull that size. It's small enough to be a single crew ship with two passenger berths, and the passengers could man the sensors, shields or weapons as needed.

Agreed. Additionally, large engines imply quick acceleration, which in turn speaks well of a ship's agility in a vacuum.
