The Stoneship (BC-347) was the lead ship of the. She was a dual-purpose galactic survey cruiser/hospital ship under the service of the Lyran Starfleet in the early 25th century. With Brianna Reiss at its command (and helm), it undertook its shakedown cruise in early 2401, in which it was found that the ship could safely cruise at warp 9.75 and perform an high-energy turn at 0.75c with a radius of 100 km. The ship was later diverted to Malachor V in order to rescue hostages on the planet. There, it performed well in battle, defeating the IKS and a Kzinti heavy cruiser in a surprise attack on the WYN pirate cartel. Like its sister ships, she was equipped with the latest targeting computers and they performed as expected during the hostage rescue over Malachor V. Because of the amount of dimension stone used in its construction, Lisunia, its science officer, found that the Stoneship had a prehistoric feel.

This ship contained several holographic programs, like Stoneship Enterprise and the Malachor Grand Prix, as well as several holodecks and sickbays, which were used while the Stoneship was dispatched to survey the Andiert and the Vantaa sectors. Finally, she was used to carry the two most important officers, as well as marble quarried on Malachor V, to the Monastir Fleet Yards.
