How Alijumbo Zibibbo compares

Every figure in this section is a count, a rank or a percentile over vessels actually held in this registry — not over the world fleet, which is larger. Nothing here is estimated.

At 225 gross tons, Alijumbo Zibibbo is the 80,185th largest of the 84,014 vessels in this registry that report a tonnage. The median across that set is 5,994 GT, so this hull is about 27 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.

Among the 1,234 ferrys held here, it ranks 835th by tonnage — larger than 5% of that group. Their median tonnage is 3,908 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 25,454 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Japan (241 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, with 34 hulls on record.

Italy is the country of registry for 918 vessels in this directory, of which Alijumbo Zibibbo is the 758th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (488 ships), and the median vessel measures 4,975 GT. Browse every ship flagged Italy.

Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 97 ferrys flying the Italy flag, of which 78 are larger by tonnage.

Alijumbo Zibibbo was built in 1991, making it 35 years old. It is one of 1,166 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 2,997 GT; within it this ship is the 1,066th largest. Across the whole of the 1990s the registry holds 12,006 vessels, median 4,956 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.

At 31.2 m overall, Alijumbo Zibibbo is 72.8 m shorter than the 104.0 m median for ferrys on record.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 8920684 this registry holds 48 other vessels, whose median build year is 1991 and which range from 1989 to 1996. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1991.

Its IMO number, 8920684, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — = 154 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.
