try using Kazan's pof constructor suite to convert the model.  I dont think it has a limit on the ply count...so i believe  http://alliance.sourceforge.net/files/Software/AllProFS2Kit.exe ("http://alliance.sourceforge.net/files/Software/AllProFS2Kit.exe")

I don't think the poly count is up to the converter. High-polu models can convert fine, but usually crash FRED2.

Do you have a texture on the ship? FS2 doesn't seem to like untextured models.
