The USS Merrimac (NCC-61827) was a Template:ShipClass Federation starship that was in service during mid-24th century. Commander Rudman was an officer serving aboard the Merrimack in 2369. (TNG: "Birthright, Part I")
In 2366, the Merrimac was assigned to personnel transport duties; it ferried Ambassador Sarek and his entourage back to Vulcan after the successful conclusion of a treaty on Legara IV. (TNG: "Sarek")
In 2367, the Merrimac was on special assignment with the Vulcan Science Academy. (TNG: "Brothers")
It later served in Captain Picard's task force to blockade the Klingon-Romulan border during the Klingon Civil War in 2368. It was positioned between the USS Ahwahnee, USS Hornet, USS Charleston and USS Tian An Men. (TNG: "Redemption II") Later that year, the Merrimack transported Cadet Wesley Crusher back to Starfleet Academy on Earth. (TNG: "The Game")
Background
- The class and registry were derived from an okudagram displayed in the observation lounge starting around TNG Season 4. This information appeared on the Starship Mission Status screen.
- Star Trek: Voyager's initial character bible for Chakotay suggests that he served on the USS Merrimack early in his career.
- The ship may have been named for the USS Merrimack, the Union ship captured by the Confederate States Navy, which during the American Civil War fought a historic naval battle with the USS Monitor.
