I'd like to add to this this bit from the Story Post from the Patch Log for 5.2:
The Gaians establish the "Green-Gold Road" with the Hogosha. This sees Gaians purchase Wildcat Gold from the Junkers as intermediaries, and selling it to the Hogosha aboard Sandur Base in exchange for Engine Components and other Kusari specialty goods. The Hogosha then launder the illicit Gold for industrial applications on Kusari's markets.
This would suggest that the gaians either are incapable or at least largely unable to construct engines for their ships. This makes sense given Gaians are not nearly as industrialist as say the Mollys are.
