When you purchase a derelict 'blind' from the ship broker (Without ever docking with it), the new damage script doesn't seem to run properly - The result is more-or-less entirely intact vessels, including power. If you purchased low, this usually means you can flip the ship right back for a large profit. See attached image for condition of the Halberd I purchased.

This happened to me as well, got the cheapest derelict I could find -- a fully intact Whistler with minor wear and thought I was very lucky. I have also added the starter ship and traits mods, but only after starting (and they presumably only affect character generation?)
i can add that this is my experience on an entirely unmodded 0.14.0.1(64) too.
it feels like all or at least a clear majority of ships that are added to the boneyard derelict buy menu during play (certainly if they are not yet visited) are in mint condition. parts may have a little wear but no broken parts and no missing parts at all.
