The Pride was a private ship owned by Antin Vargo. It was given to him by his father. The ship was wedge shaped, had room for six plus cargo, and was capable of warp four. The Pride evaded the USS Thunderchild by using an old model Romulan Cloaking device and hiding in the Rings of Saturn while attempting to transport Seven of Nine to the Borg Cube in Sector 10.
