Service history and disposition[]
Maui was the name of an island of Hawaii on Earth. (TNG novel: Hearts and Minds)
In the year 2399, the Inquiry-class battleship USS Zheng He and a squadron of its sister ships was sent to intervene at the planet Coppelius after retired Admiral Jean-Luc Picard made a priority request for Starfleet and Federation involvement. Zheng He led the fleet, commanded by Acting Captain William T. Riker. The Zheng He squadron deployed in order to protect the Coppelius inhabitants from a Romulan fleet under orders to exterminate them. The ships of the squadron featured two different warp nacelle designs.
After Captain Riker made the squadron's intentions clear, the Romulan fleet withdrew. The Zheng He squadron also departed after Riker left the situation in the hands of Admiral Picard, who was in command of the hired starship La Sirena. (PIC episode: "Et in Arcadia Ego, Part II")
The Maui was equipped with the alternative nacelles compared to the Zheng He. The Maui had rounded warp nacelles, like the USS Toussaint, whereas the nacelles of the Zheng He were pointed, as on the USS Varian Fry. The Bussard collectors of both the Maui and the Varian Fry shared the same red color. (Shipyards reference: Starfleet Ships 2294 - The Future)
