I had a few questions regarding the best way to move ships from one station to another:
Basically when you start out at your first station and go through the three sets of agent missions as kind of a tutorial, you're given a bunch of ships to work with. Then you are asked to move stations to one that is 15 or so jumps away to report to another agent. Are you expected to just leave all your stuff at that one station and just take a frigate for combat and then come back if needed?
Well here's my scenario, I pretty much left everything there and have been doing more missions and salvaging for cash. However, I'm starting to get into ammunitions manufacturing for some small side cash, which is working out great. The only problem is that the one frigate I brought with me (Merlin), can't hold very much in terms of cargo. I don't really want to buy another Badger or Bantam because I have them at the original station I started out in. I know I could go back and get the Badger and then repackage my Merlin, but then I lose my insurance, and then will just have to reinsure when I come back.
So my questions are:
Is there a better way to transport ships from one station to another?
Can I tow a ship somehow?
Is there any easy way to manage assets? (i.e. not having your stuff scattered across 10 different stations)
Is there any way to move something from one station to another without physically going and picking it up?
Thanks for your time and your help.

Thanks for the quick response.
If I repackage though, is there any way to avoid losing your insurance? Basically if I repackage I lose 100K for the insurance I paid for, then another 100K to rebuy the insurance. I might as well just pay a little extra and buy another ship?
EDIT:
Agent Known thanks for the tips. I posted this before I saw your reply.

Thanks for your help guys. Yeah I actually insured all my ships because I got killed by some guy right as I undocked from my station in a .6 sec area. I lost almost everything I had at that point (I was in a different badger and had all my trade goods with me). Anyway, it's all good now.

The shuttle idea is a great one. I guess I never really thought of it (more because I didn't know you could even get shuttles). I'll definitely try that next time. For now I'm just leaving all my ships uninsured so I can repackage and move whenever I want to. I ended up flying back and doing the self destruct thing to get my insurance money, and then purchasing another ship so I could carry it in my badger. It actually worked out in my favor because the insurance money was 100K more than I needed to buy another ship. I suppose it wouldn't have been a great loss to just leave all my stuff at that station and just buy everything again. I only have ~5 million ISK, and the cost of the ship + fittings would have been around 3-400K. I guess it was worth it. Anyway thanks again for all the great suggestions.
