Creating Battleship Location

I'd like to be able to create a Rheinland battleship - not a pilotable one, but a stationary, dockable location like the Westfalen - in the Omicron Theta system but being but a humble, lowly noob with no modding skills whatsoever I don't even know if this is possible. My intention is to create a Corsair or Outcast battleship to act as a waystation for pirates flying around the Omicron systems, captured as it was thrown out into the system while travelling through a non-phase-aligned jump hole after fleeing the Battle of Yanagi.

Would it be possible to just 'transplant' the data from the Westfalen into another system (changing the co-ordinates of course) and simply change the equipment, NPCs etc? If so, how would I go about doing this?

Secondly, I'd like to be able to change the name and the infocard on the battleship to my own information but from browsing about the boards I gather that this is harder than I originally thought. Is there a way to do this?

I've looked around, but the only threads that I can find with much relevance to this are ones to create battleships as pilotable ships, and not as locations.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
