In brief

About HMCS William Hall

Full article ↗

HMCS William Hall (AOPV 433) is the fourth Harry DeWolf-class offshore patrol vessel for the Royal Canadian Navy. The class was derived from the Arctic Offshore Patrol Ship project as part of the National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy and is primarily designed for the patrol and support of Canada's Arctic regions. Named after Quartermaster William Nelson Edward Hall, who was the first African Canadian to receive the Victoria Cross. He received the medal for his actions in the 1857 Siege of Lucknow during the Indian Rebellion.

In context

How HMCS William Hall compares

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.

Canada is the country of registry for 633 vessels in this directory. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (404 ships), and the median vessel measures 1,800 GT. Browse every ship flagged Canada.

Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 13 naval / patrols flying the Canada flag.

The registry attributes 3 vessels to Irving Shipbuilding, Halifax, Nova Scotia. See the rest of that yard’s output.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 4702539 this registry holds 6 other vessels, whose median build year is 2021. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series; no build year is recorded for this vessel itself.

Its IMO number, 4702539, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 4×7 + 7×6 + 0×5 + 2×4 + 5×3 + 3×2 = 99 — and the last digit of that total, 9, must equal the seventh digit, 9. It does, so this number is well formed.
