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 38,349 gross tons, Maple Ace II is the 14,665th 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 6.4 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 485 car carriers held here, it ranks 317th by tonnage — larger than 32% of that group. Their median tonnage is 49,792 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 68,871 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (132 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Shin Kurushima Dockyard, with 41 hulls on record.
Liberia is the country of registry for 4,741 vessels in this directory, of which Maple Ace II is the 1,980th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (2,739 ships), and the median vessel measures 32,983 GT. Browse every ship flagged Liberia.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 29 car carriers flying the Liberia flag, of which 20 are larger by tonnage.
Maple Ace II was built in 1992, making it 34 years old. It is one of 1,130 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 3,228 GT; within it this ship is the 163rd largest. Across the whole of the 1990s the registry holds 12,006 vessels, median 4,956 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 740 vessels to Shin Kurushima Dockyard, with a median tonnage of 16,762 GT, delivered between 1970 and 2021. See the rest of that yard’s output.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9014808 this registry holds 59 other vessels, whose median build year is 1992. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series.
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.

Measurements
Its IMO number, 9014808, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 0×6 + 1×5 + 4×4 + 8×3 + 0×2 = 108 — and the last digit of that total, 8, must equal the seventh digit, 8. It does, so this number is well formed.
