My suggestions for this are
A wild life theme with an animated parrot on the railing and a monkey in the rigging
A reaver theme Rotating knives jutting out of parts of the ship and a mechanized laughing skull.
A monastic them with Spinning Tibetan prayer wheels and a big brass bell.
A mad scientist theme with a Plasma ball and tubes full of bubbling liquid.

Okay, I probably worded that too wrong. I don't mean a ship built as a hospital, I just mean a ship that's transporting some injured soldiers and such. Field Medic if you would.

HamsterIV:
That is still a hospital ship. Vehicles and personnel flying the Red Cross (Red Crescent or Red Star of David) are considered non combatants and should not be targeted under what most civilized armies recognize as the rules of war. If a medical unit actively engages in combat that protection is forfeit but such instances are rare and also considered against the rules of war.

I know it is just a game, but deep down I would feel bad if I committed a war crime, even virtually.

Meh, in a apocolyptic place like GoIO, war crimes don't really seem like a thing to worry about.

Flamethrowers are warcrimes too, I believe.

Indreams:
Fireworks?

Carn:
How about a scrapyard theme? Ship looks like it just pulled out of a junkyard, covered in rust and bits of scrap metal. Something for the captain to yell at the engies at how deplorable they are
