Spare parts will generally be imported, and thoose that are not
interchangeable from star ships to air/rafts will likely only be in stock
in star ship size.
Starships carry air/rafts as part of their equipment ...
And typically they visit high tech worlds at times. I suppose repair and
maintanance will happen there.
I also would consider it plausible, that some star ships have lower tech
dishwashers installed, because their original broke down when they had
been in a low TL world and they had to replace it there. Some tramp
frighter style ships might intentionally keep some equipment low TL to
make sure they can use low TL spareparts.
That would backfire once they do the annual overhaul on a high-tech world.
They will have to keep their engines and navigation systems and such at
high TL. But if the annual overhaul does check the dishwaschers at all, it
will be sufficient that they work.
