Wetland Pirate Planet Shipping Lane.
This was a concept for a shipping lane crossing the wetland planet that ultimately became the desert planet of Pasaana.
The speeder chase would have started in the village to the left and involved a game of chicken between the keels of these hydrofoil freighters before veering off into the mangroves to the right.
The underwater waterfall in the trench was inspired by a natural feature off the coast of the island of Mauritius.
The freighters are an homage to the cargo ships on Hoth in The Empire Strikes Back.
