Open data · every figure carries its source
No gross tonnage is recorded for this vessel, so it cannot be ranked by size. Rank is only shown where the underlying measurement exists.
Vessel particulars
Every value is as recorded in the source. Blanks are values the source does not hold — none is estimated from a sister ship or a class average.

In context
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.
Alouette Spirit was built in 1969, making it 57 years old. It is one of 814 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 992 GT. Across the whole of the 1960s the registry holds 4,074 vessels, median 844 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 4 vessels to Gulfport Shipbuilding Corporation, delivered between 1944 and 1969. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 106.7 m overall, Alouette Spirit is within a metre of the 106.7 m median length for barges on record.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 8641537 this registry holds 6 other vessels, whose median build year is 1982 and which range from 1969 to 1982. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1969.
Its IMO number, 8641537, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 8×7 + 6×6 + 4×5 + 1×4 + 5×3 + 3×2 = 137 — and the last digit of that total, 7, must equal the seventh digit, 7. It does, so this number is well formed.
