I just added a power of 2 account for a second character... Is there a way to share or give my second character on the second account a couple ships and money from my main account? I want to give the new account one of the medium class ships and some weapons from my primary account as well as a bit of money to start out but I do not see any way to do it... So is it possible?

When in doubt, right click it.

Private contracts are also useful if you are in a different station to your alt. Just don't spell your name wrong.

To be more precise on right clicking, dock up in the same station. On the right of your screen is a three tab menu - Guests, Offices, and Agents. Click on Guests if it isn't already up, and find your alt. Right click and choose Trade. The rest should be easy to figure out.

Definitely suggest private contracts (train Contracting to level 1 or 2 on both characters).

Be aware that this will leave a paper trail that lets people connect your alts together, which for some purposes might be a bad thing.

If you need the new character to remain untainted by a paper trail to the old one, let us know and we can suggest ways to do that.

Note that the trade option doesn't always appear in the context menu, but it seems to always appear for at least one of the characters.

This is a very old bug.

Be aware that the only time you should use a trade window is with your own accounts. There are numerous ways to cheat people via the trade window, so always insist on contracts when dealing with others.
