For the owner, and without buying any additional carrier services, the storage limit is 40 ships. For guests, the owner must install the Shipyard Service, which also allows each guest 40 ships on board. The same applies for modules. Edit: I mean an additional Outfitting Service must be bought, then the guests can have as many as they want of their 120 max modules on board the carrier.My own map is... somewhat different as I am currently on my longest ever journey - and barely started at that
Incidentally... I know a carrier has limited landing pads, but does that directly relate to how many ships you can have on board, i.e.16 ships? The Wiki isn't clear.

Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

It is about time that module limit was increased - I am fed up storing modules on ships bought for just that purpose - especially since I can only name them using uppercase! grumble grumble
I totally agree, being in the same situation
Have you tried navigating by mollusc? I believe there are some rather splendid ones in the area you appear to be transiting.
Same here!
I jumped into a, as luck would have it, system with a tritium hotspot. Jumped into the Phantom to do a bit of exploriarinisation, and, after lots of HMCs, finally found a mettalic ring with the aforementioned hotspot goody. Currently en route back to The Tyres O'Flaherty to retrieve the Cutter for some good old strip mining of the place.
In fact, there are three hotspots around the giant and two more giants I haven't even looked at properly yet.
Ah, here she is now*:
* Yes, technically "Tyres" is male and all that but I think all sailing vessels, terrestrial or extra should be female. Thoughts?
I just got back from a little 3.5 week passenger/exploration trip that roughly went...
It was my first long-range passenger haul, I don't do that many passenger missions and usually I'm just ferrying people around the Bubble. I put a bunch of cabins in my Exploraconda and took a bunch or explorers with a 3 week 5 day timer that I cut pretty close. The first 1/3 was pretty boring, routes out of the bubble are getting to be pretty well explored (I got to within 5 jumps of the Eagle Nebula before I discovered a virgin system) and the first couple of mission stops weren't scenic at all. The middle part was great though, the stops were good tourist locations and near the core is always pretty took lots of pictures many of which I already shared in this and another thread so I won't rehash them. But the last 1/3 also had some yawn-worthy tourist spots and I started to just jump/honk my way back instead of fully exploring systems due to time running out. In the end I totaled a little over 400 million in fares and exploration data. I wasn't finding just a whole lot of crazy valuable stuff, I found one ELW, a dozen or so WWs and a handful of neutron stars so it wasn't ALL rocky/icy bodies though it sometimes felt like it.

How are you guys making these?
They are from the site Elite Dangerous Star Map, you can join it like Inara and it can plot your journeys, you can also confirm the distances of systems for them amongst other features.
edsm.net is the site, you can upload your journals and get a map, and also connect via EDMC for constant updates and a flight log and whatnot.
Thanks, Para. Found it. I just show up as a radar blip so I guess that'll give me extra incentive to get the HOTUS out tomorrow.
Mega dumb - failed in my first attempt to get a Guardian blueprint, tried again this evening. It was dark this time to add to the fun. I did park my ship nearer, so finally point defence came in handy, and cleared the sentinels much quicker, but still couldn’t scan... until it dawned on me to check the Fire Groups mapping - yep, I hadn’t linked up the Datalink scanner 
On the way back to check out a burning station for the first time, I picked up a nice notable:
Now to get the Cutter shipped over and do some rescuing!

You should be able to import your journals so it'll have the data to show, assuming you're on PC?
You can also use EDDiscovery to auto send your data to EDSM - and Inara come to that.
This started me thinking for some reason - a dangerous thing to do in the wee small hours...
A star map of a galactic circumnavigation would be an impressive sight. I wonder, if only tritium refuelling were performed with no "ooooh! Look at that!" moments and using the widest "edge", how long it would take in a carrier...
How would I do that? No rush. I'm not desperate for it to work or anything. It'd just be nice to know if you get the chance.
I have an account with Inara.
Apologies for all the questions. I'm just a PC newb so I'm not super smart like those console people.
