Did you participate in the EQ beta? The ship used by P1999 was a relic from the Everquest beta, before the current ships were added. Perhaps that's why you recall it, or you might've seen the beta ship in some very old screenshots or art assets. It's visible in the original loadscreen art, for example. P99 was somewhat lucky in that EQ's developers simply left the old model in after replacing it.

As a side note, the major ship routes in Ocean of Tears and Erud's Crossing should've been changed to two ships per route instead of one long ago on "Blue" and are approaching that point in the timeline on "Green" as well.

because you've bene on p99 for so long that it just feels right to you. Fabrication of memories is a real and true phenomenon.
