TRAVEL: “A ship with a Reserves value of 0 is dead in space.” If I’m understanding this correctly, it should probably be rewritten as “A ship with a full Reserves track is dead in space.”
PORTS: “If at least one good was traded, the ship may refill its reserves.” What does “traded” mean here? “If you bought any goods,” “If you sold any goods,” “If you both bought and sold goods,” or “If you bought or sold any goods”?
This looks very cool. However I think your random chargen is too random. I can suggest two alternatives. Give folks a fixed amount of points, maybe 4,5, or 6 and let them assign them as they like, or let them roll that many dice and 1-2 results add to Strength, 3-4s to Agility, and 5-6s to Presence.
“SHIPSINGER: […] Count 4’s as hits when working on the ship” Does “working on the ship” mean repairing, modifying, or upgrading the ship, or does it mean performing any type of work while on the ship?
That's a GM call. Worded in such a way to let a table find their own consensus. The "count "4" abilities are quite powerful, and tables have to find their own equilibrium.

How/when do characters get Stamina back?

This looks very cool. Any chance you can export and upload a version in pages rather than spreads, please?
Definitely. This weekend at the latest.
Slightly later than the weekend, but they're up!

“Your character’s last three HP are linked to their facets” How does this work for PCs that rolled 0 for Strength, and have only 2 HP?
They do not get that last one, but I'm willing to consider that all PCs get three, minimum if that sounds clunky.
oh wow. Love the vibe, tone, and the setting. Reminds me of the Breathing Space podcast. Rough and tumble with a heart of gold.
I like the “places to go and people to see” way of setting up a location too. Very slick. I’ll be watching! :)
Thank you! There's always a bit of breath-holding, releasing something into the world. I appreciate the kind words here at the beginning.
