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 5,667 gross tons, Moby Baby is the 42,673rd 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 1,234 ferrys held here, it ranks 382nd by tonnage — larger than 57% 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.
Italy is the country of registry for 918 vessels in this directory, of which Moby Baby is the 395th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (488 ships), and the median vessel measures 4,975 GT. Browse every ship flagged Italy.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 97 ferrys flying the Italy flag, of which 35 are larger by tonnage.
Moby Baby was built in 1966, making it 60 years old. It is one of 440 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 839 GT; within it this ship is the 36th largest.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 6606026 this registry holds 6 other vessels, whose median build year is 1966 and which range from 1965 to 1966. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series.

Measurements
Its IMO number, 6606026, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 6×7 + 6×6 + 0×5 + 6×4 + 0×3 + 2×2 = 106 — and the last digit of that total, 6, must equal the seventh digit, 6. It does, so this number is well formed.
