BUT, both the picking up and placing down of a ship seem to be part of executing a maneuver, so I suspect that if a ship stops on an obstacle then its next movement will still require another roll for damage even if only the ship's base pre-moving overlaps the obstacle (but the man. template and ship base at the end of the move don't overlap any obstacle). Since the definition of executing a maneuver references both picking up and putting down the ship, I think that the ship's base-before-movement is included in maneuver execution, and is therefore relevant for determining obstacle overlap. So this is how I would rule it, based on what the rules say.
I read it that way last night but in the end we decided to go with the less hurtful method that says that if the front of your ship starts off the asteroid then you don't roll again.
I'd be inclined to play the same way: if the front of your base is clear of the obstacle, you don't have to roll for it again.
Definitely if the obstacle is large enough to cover the whole base of the model, you'd roll again.
