Spaceships that we have today can not go to other Stars. We do however have some probes that have been sent close to own star. In the fictional Star Trek Universe, they plot courses that would avoid hitting any star. A tractor beam would not be able to tow a star. If we are talking about space dust and debris the deflector provides protection against these impacts whilst at warp.

Can a starship tow another with a tractor beam while at warp speed?
Nope.The forces holding the tractor beam particles together cannot withstand the forces generated by traveling at warp speed.The Above is FalseTractor beams were generally only used at sub-warp velocities. To safely tow a vessel at warp speed, the target vessel's engines had to be deactivated to avoid shearing forces against towing vessel. A tractor beam could be used at warp speed only if both vessels' speeds were exactly matched. (TNG: "Final Mission", "The Emissary")http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Tractor_beamFranny

What is a cantilever deck?
A cantilever deck is a deck that is suspended by joists that stick out of the structure. The distance the deck sticks out of the structure is one-third the total length of the cantilever beams that enter the structure. Usually these beams are bolted to (or sistered) to the second story floor joists or the roof trusses. Onto these beams are attached the floorboards that make the surface of the deck. And onto those the railings are attached. Hope that helps :-)
