A ferry droid pictured on Nevarro
Droids designed for ferry operations, referred to as ferry droids, were responsible for piloting keelboats. These droids ensured the secure transportation of individuals across the lava-filled rivers found on Nevarro, a planet characterized by its volcanic nature.
Notably, one such ferry droid, identified as MA-13, operated a boat utilized by several individuals: Din Djarin, the Mandalorian bounty hunter; Cara Dune, a former shock trooper; Greef Karga, an operative affiliated with the Bounty Hunters' Guild; and IG-11, a reformed assassin droid. They used this boat to evade capture by Moff Gideon's forces, specifically his Imperial remnant, while protecting the infant Grogu. As the boat neared the lava river's exit, where Gideon's stormtroopers lay in wait, the ferry droid continued its course, ignoring requests to stop. Consequently, Dune shot at the droid, but her actions were insufficient to bring the boat to a halt.
