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.
At 36,087 gross tons, Box Trader is the 15,657th 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 6.0 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 3,881 container ships held here, it ranks 1,766th by tonnage — larger than 52% of that group. Their median tonnage is 33,698 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 140,096 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Liberia (498 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, with 348 hulls on record.
Liberia is the country of registry for 4,741 vessels in this directory, of which Box Trader is the 2,088th largest by tonnage.

Measurements
Its IMO number, 9423035, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 4×6 + 2×5 + 3×4 + 0×3 + 3×2 = 115 — and the last digit of that total, 5, must equal the seventh digit, 5. It does, so this number is well formed.
