If you sit around the Zangarmarsh and fish, at random rare intervals you
may be lucky enough to catch a "Strange Engine Part", if you examine the
object you'll see "It reads 'Capissen 38' on the bottom." - you can't
really use it for anything so you might as well sell it for a bit of
coin to the local engineering expert K. Lee Smallfry ;)

( http://thottbot.com/q11531 - added in patch 2.3.0 it seems )



"And don't fly in anything with a Capissen 38 engine; they fall RIGHT
out of the sky." --Kaylee, "Serenity" (the movie)
