The arrival roster at Deep Space 9 listing the Min'ow
The USS Min'ow was a Federation starship that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century.
Under the command of Captain K.L. Gifford, this starship was due to arrive at Deep Space 9 on stardate 47566.1, in 2370. (DS9: "Whispers")
The Min'ow was never mentioned or shown; it was simply listed in an okudagram graphic of an arrival roster on a viewscreen. No reason for the starship's odd nomenclature has been noted, but the graphic was also populated by some other in-jokes. A likely explanation for the name is a tribute to the SS Minnow, the ill-fated ship of Gilligan's Island.
