The Windjammer was a starship belonging to pirate Captain Black Jack Nova. It had previously belonged to Ben Cannon until his crew betrayed him.
Service history[]
In 2268, USS Enterprise officers James T. Kirk, Spock, Leonard McCoy and Montgomery Scott went undercover as pirates and joined Black Jack Nova's crew on the Windjammer. En route to Taos IV, the location of a stolen dilithium shipment, Spock and Scott were ejected from the ship's airlock in spacesuits. They were rescued by the Enterprise, which was using a Romulan cloaking device to follow them. After Nova died in a crash on Taos IV, the Enterprise captured the Windjammer.
