Its IMO number, 5511216, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 5×7 + 5×6 = 82 — and the last digit of that total, 2, must equal the seventh digit, 6. It does not, so this number as recorded does not validate; it is shown here as held rather than silently corrected.
