In 2285, the Merchantman was a small vessel which carried classified Federation data regarding the Genesis Device to a Klingon Bird-of-Prey that was the under the command of Kruge. The Merchantman was destroyed when Kruge learned that Valkris, a Klingon operative travelling aboard the freighter, had seen the information. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
- The name of the Merchantman is taken from the script, which suggests that the ship was in Organian space when it was attacked and destroyed.
- The model of the Merchantman was later re-used as one of the Class 7 vessels in TNG: "The Outrageous Okona", and as the Cardassian freighter Bok'Nor in DS9: "The Maquis, Part I".
