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 1,786 gross tons, Frisia III is the 59,348th 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 3.4 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 877 ro-ros held here, it ranks 567th by tonnage — larger than 29% of that group. Their median tonnage is 7,395 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 34,011 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Italy (62 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft, with 16 hulls on record.
Germany is the country of registry for 885 vessels in this directory, of which Frisia III is the 280th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (446 ships), and the median vessel measures 916 GT. Browse every ship flagged Germany.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 12 ro-ros flying the Germany flag, of which 4 are larger by tonnage.
Frisia III was built in 2015, making it 11 years old. It is one of 1,804 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 25,303 GT; within it this ship is the 1,525th largest. Across the whole of the 2010s the registry holds 20,111 vessels, median 23,456 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 69 vessels to Cassens Werft GmbH, with a median tonnage of 3,054 GT, delivered between 1903 and 2015. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 73.0 m overall, Frisia III is 52.0 m shorter than the 125.0 m median for ro-ros on record, with a beam of 13.4 m and a draft of 1.8 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9732450 this registry holds 69 other vessels, whose median build year is 2016 and which range from 2011 to 2021. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2015.
Its IMO number, 9732450, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 7×6 + 3×5 + 2×4 + 4×3 + 5×2 = 150 — and the last digit of that total, 0, must equal the seventh digit, 0. It does, so this number is well formed.
