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 15,776 gross tons, Havila Capella is the 30,357th 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 2.6 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 617 passenger vessels held here, it ranks 19th by tonnage — larger than 96% of that group. Their median tonnage is 909 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 9,718 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Egypt (65 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Meyer Werft, with 16 hulls on record.
Norway is the country of registry for 3,032 vessels in this directory, of which Havila Capella is the 607th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (2,126 ships), and the median vessel measures 3,102 GT. Browse every ship flagged Norway.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 34 passenger vessels flying the Norway flag, of which 1 is larger by tonnage.
Havila Capella was built in 2021, making it 5 years old. It is one of 251 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 15,776 GT; within it this ship is the 77th largest. Across the whole of the 2020s the registry holds 1,769 vessels, median 29,777 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 45 vessels to Tersan Shipyard, with a median tonnage of 4,427 GT, delivered between 2007 and 2023. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 124.1 m overall, Havila Capella is 63.1 m longer than the 61.0 m median for passenger vessels on record, with a beam of 22.0 m and a draft of 5.3 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9865570 this registry holds 42 other vessels, whose median build year is 2020 and which range from 2018 to 2022. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2021.
Its IMO number, 9865570, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 8×6 + 6×5 + 5×4 + 5×3 + 7×2 = 190 — and the last digit of that total, 0, must equal the seventh digit, 0. It does, so this number is well formed.

Same yard, same years
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.
