In brief
The Enköping is a Swedish motor vessel, and former steam ship, that was built in 1868 at Oskarshamn. Over the years, she has operated under the names Östhammar, Skokloster, Arholma, Väddö, Glafsfjorden, Södra Skärgården and Soten. In 1948 she was converted to diesel power. In 1990 Strömma Kanalbolaget bought her, and she is now used for tourist services on Lake Malaren and in the Stockholm archipelago. According to her owners, she is the oldest passenger ship still in service in the Lloyd's Register of Shipping, and she is a listed historic ship of Sweden.

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 133 gross tons, M/S Enköping is the 82,811th 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 45 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 1,234 ferrys held here, it ranks 868th by tonnage — larger than 2% of that group. Their median tonnage is 3,908 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 25,454 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Japan (241 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, with 34 hulls on record.
Sweden is the country of registry for 370 vessels in this directory, of which M/S Enköping is the 246th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (195 ships), and the median vessel measures 972 GT. Browse every ship flagged Sweden.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 48 ferrys flying the Sweden flag, of which 35 are larger by tonnage.
M/S Enköping was built in 1868, making it 158 years old. It is one of 1 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 133 GT; within it this ship is the 1st largest. Across the whole of the 1860s the registry holds 3 vessels, median 154 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 35 vessels to Oskarshamn Shipyard, with a median tonnage of 449 GT, delivered between 1868 and 1995. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 30.3 m overall, M/S Enköping is 73.7 m shorter than the 104.0 m median for ferrys on record, with a beam of 5.5 m and a draft of 2.3 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 5334755 this registry holds 11 other vessels, whose median build year is 1945 and which range from 1868 to 1959. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1868.
Its IMO number, 5334755, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 5×7 + 3×6 + 3×5 + 4×4 + 7×3 + 5×2 = 115 — and the last digit of that total, 5, must equal the seventh digit, 5. It does, so this number is well formed.
