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 5,505 gross tons, MF Bastø II is the 43,105th largest of the 84,014 vessels in this registry that report a tonnage. The median across that set is 5,994 GT. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 58,086 vessels this registry holds no type classification for held here, it ranks 24,659th by tonnage — larger than 50% 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.
Norway is the country of registry for 3,032 vessels in this directory, of which MF Bastø II is the 915th largest by tonnage.

MF Bastø II was built in 1997, making it 29 years old. It is one of 1,319 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 8,388 GT; within it this ship is the 728th 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 50 vessels to Fosen Yard, with a median tonnage of 6,764 GT, delivered between 1973 and 2024. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 109.0 m overall, MF Bastø II is 6.0 m shorter than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9144093 this registry holds 75 other vessels, whose median build year is 1997 and which range from 1995 to 1999. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1997.
Its IMO number, 9144093, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 1×6 + 4×5 + 4×4 + 0×3 + 9×2 = 123 — and the last digit of that total, 3, must equal the seventh digit, 3. It does, so this number is well formed.
