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.
United Kingdom is the country of registry for 2,394 vessels in this directory. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (1,835 ships), and the median vessel measures 2,515 GT. Browse every ship flagged United Kingdom.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 40 ferrys flying the United Kingdom flag.
Canna was built in 1976, making it 50 years old. It is one of 1,812 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 4,484 GT. Across the whole of the 1970s the registry holds 17,331 vessels, median 2,774 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 10 vessels to James Lamont & Co, with a median tonnage of 802 GT, delivered between 1948 and 1979. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 25.2 m overall, Canna is 78.8 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 7340423 this registry holds 31 other vessels, whose median build year is 1974 and which range from 1973 to 1976. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1976.
Its IMO number, 7340423, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 7×7 + 3×6 + 4×5 + 0×4 + 4×3 + 2×2 = 103 — and the last digit of that total, 3, must equal the seventh digit, 3. It does, so this number is well formed.

No ship class is recorded for this vessel, so these are not asserted to be sister ships — they are contemporaries from the same builder, shown because that is what the data supports.
