Aside from producing the ship-building materials yourself or buying them cheaply, you can increase the price of sold ships in the logical overview screen (click on the fabrication module and adjust the price % slider).

They're very very heavily nerfed.
The use of them for me, is buffing a faction I want to have the upper hand...
(Wish I could make ships for Xenon...)

Someone already did the math but if you buy at average price of good or better and sold only ship you will always come on as a profit

The few exceptions are some Terran ships

I would also see what faction actually need ships

Would suck to get everything for a faction only to see they are already at ship cap so no one buying

Try hacking production terminal of the other nearby wharfs and see if they temp bring you more traffic to buy your ships. Build all the stuff you need to make the end product yourself. As long as u get them to buy ur stuff you will make money.

Yeah, as others have said. Do all resource/item production yourself or offset costs by having your wharf sell claytronics or something else.

Yes i have a ship trader, and i have a couple of ship blueprints. They are very expensive to get them all together. Also i have some terran ships in production line.

Not enough, you should aim to get all S and M ship blueprints for at least one faction.
