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 538 gross tons, Insel Amrum is the 72,681st 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 11 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 58,086 vessels this registry holds no type classification for held here, it ranks 40,698th by tonnage — larger than 18% of that group. Their median tonnage is 5,358 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 54,309 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (5,698 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is HD Hyundai Mipo, with 615 hulls on record.
Germany is the country of registry for 885 vessels in this directory, of which Insel Amrum is the 397th 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 446 vessels this registry holds no type classification for flying the Germany flag, of which 173 are larger by tonnage.
Insel Amrum was built in 1970, making it 56 years old. It is one of 336 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 2,669 GT; within it this ship is the 117th largest. 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 68 vessels to Husumer Schiffswerft, with a median tonnage of 1,132 GT, delivered between 1953 and 2001. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 55.5 m overall, Insel Amrum is 59.5 m shorter than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record, with a beam of 13.1 m and a draft of 1.5 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 7935321 this registry holds 12 other vessels, whose median build year is 1979 and which range from 1964 to 1979. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1970.
Its IMO number, 7935321, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 7×7 + 9×6 + 3×5 + 5×4 + 3×3 + 2×2 = 151 — and the last digit of that total, 1, must equal the seventh digit, 1. It does, so this number is well formed.
