Marc Okrand answered this very question about how to say "a fast ship"
for the qepHom that just took place in Saarbrucken.  Here is what he
had to say:

Maltz was unaware of an adjective meaning "fast" (or "slow" for that
matter). He said in Klingon you wouldn't say that something is fast -
you'd say it moves fast. So instead of "You have a fast ship," you could
say {nom Ieng DujlIj} "Your ship travels fast" or {nom Ieng Duj
Daghajbogh} "The ship that you have travels fast." If "your fast ship"
is supposed to be the subject or object of a sentence, you say
something like {tlnqu' nom Iengbogh DujlIj} "Your ship that travels
fast is very big" (or, less literally, "Your fast ship is very big") or {nom
Iengbogh DujlIj vllegh} "I see your ship that travels fast" (or "I see
your fast ship").
