The term "Vessel weapon" should probably be Vehilce weapon, as a dragon's claws are "vessel weapons" but use a difrent attack calculation. (Dragons get to use their STR modifier for attack and damage scores, for example)
This change also makes some other comments clearer:
Quote:
Grappling: Vessels may grapple if they possess weapons capable of delivering grapple attacks. A creature's natural weapons can be used for grapple attacks, but only vehicle weapons described as such can be used for grapple attacks. A vehicle weapon uses its Vehicle Weapon Attack Roll for grapple checks. The vessel being grappled uses its pilot's Piloting skill check modified by the vessel's Strength modifier.
Vehicle weapons may allow for one vessel to grapple another without becoming grappled itself. Yeah it's weird, but think of a tractor beam. In any event, all grappled vessels are unable to move until they manage to escape the grapple.
