Greetings. This is Ethan Jackson - former owner and chairman of EJ Trading and captain of the Junker Salvager vessel Shadow_Vulture.
Firstly, may I say that I'm aware that things have always been "difficult" between Junkers and Kishiro. Indeed, between Junkers and pretty much all Kusari corporations. That having been said, I would like to make it clear that I am an independent and have no formal link to the Congress.
With that in mind, I'll come to the point. I've long been an admirer of the Kishiro shipline, especially the Akegata and wonder whether it would be possible to purchase one from you for my personal use. The ship would be used for the sole purpose of transporting goods to and from some of the more dangerous parts of the sector.
I'm sure that, should you consider my request, you will have concerns of your own, which I shall be happy to address. I understand that shipbuilding requires many resources and components which I should be happy to provide in addition to meeting any production costs which are incurred.
I hope that you will give my request some thought and I look forward to hearing from you in due course.
