This is an old episode but they do a great job explaining how to use the Genesys rules for ship & vehicle combat in the Star Wars RPG. Spoiler warning: many players find the Genesys rules work much better.

Man, Order66 used to be such a go-to listen back when the game first released.

Our first campaign had the players planet hopping from the edges of the outer rim, through Hutt space, to the corporate sector, and all the way to the center of the galaxy. I took a different tack with our current campaign and have basically had the players stranded on a single (homebrew) planet.

This means basically no starships so far! And we have not really missed having to engage with the vehicle rules. In "Season 2" there's probably going to be some space flight again, so I'll have to give this a listen and see if the Genesys rules seem more workable.
