Ship Equipment
Passage Device
Created by the Arcane. The device creates a portal in a crystal shell that allows a ship to pass between Wildspace and the Phlogiston. This device does not require a spellcaster for it to function. Acts as a create portal spell.
Portal Locator
Created by the Arcane. The device locates a natural portal in a crystal shell that allows a ship to pass between Wildspace and the Phlogiston. This device does not require a spellcaster for it to function. Acts as a locate portal spell.
Planetary Locator

Locator Becon

Star chart
Star charts indicate the location and relative position of the various planets in the Crystal Sphere. They are not magical but are very useful for determining things like prominent races, environments, and spaceborne powers operating in the region.
Life Boats
Life boats have one purpose: to bring those inside relatively safely to the surface of a planet. The life boat falls toward the nearest gravity well (using a lifeboat close to a star can have nasty results).
Ship Weapons
Spelljammer ship-to-ship combat makes use of the siege engines in the DMG, p. 255 along with some homebrew weapons. Here is a summary, which also gives alternate names from original AD&D Spelljammer book.

**Spelljammer Helm
Spelljamming helms are the central setting concept which allow interplanetary and interstellar space travel for vessels which would otherwise not be spaceworthy, in the form of a helm (as in rudder, not armored helmet). Any spellcaster may sit on a spelljammer helm to move the ship. The mysterious race known as the Arcane is the sole manufacturer and distributor of spelljamming helms. They are a method of converting magical energy into motive power.
