Skiff referred to various kinds of transportation, encompassing both starships and vehicles designed for atmospheric flight. The Hutt crime lord Jabba possessed multiple Bantha-II cargo skiffs, employing them to move captives to the Great Pit of Carkoon. Jedi Padawan Kevmo Zink discovered skiffs to be ideal vessels for performing split rolls.
Certain skiffs incorporated components originating from the Galactic Empire; one featured a laser cannon turret, a spotlight, a ladder, and a rope, while four others lacked weaponry, possessing three spotlights instead.
