In brief
The MV Logos II was a ship built in Spain, 1968, which was purchased in 1989 by Educational Book Exhibits Ltd., a private, non-profit, charitable organisation registered in the UK. Logos II was operated on behalf of EBE by GBA Ships, a second private, non-profit, charitable organisation registered in Germany. She entered service in 1990 and was active until October 2008 when she was sold. The work of Logos II is now being carried on by a replacement vessel Logos Hope.

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 4,804 gross tons, MV Logos II is the 45,110th 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 1.2 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 25,768th by tonnage — larger than 48% 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.
Malta is the country of registry for 2,640 vessels in this directory, of which MV Logos II is the 2,096th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (1,614 ships), and the median vessel measures 23,204 GT. Browse every ship flagged Malta.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 1,614 vessels this registry holds no type classification for flying the Malta flag, of which 1,291 are larger by tonnage.
MV Logos II was built in 1968, making it 58 years old. It is one of 536 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 769 GT; within it this ship is the 42nd largest. Across the whole of the 1960s the registry holds 4,074 vessels, median 844 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 53 vessels to Unión Naval Valencia, with a median tonnage of 462 GT, delivered between 1968 and 2012. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 109.5 m overall, MV Logos II is 5.5 m shorter than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record, with a beam of 16.3 m and a draft of 5.1 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 6806834 this registry holds 14 other vessels, whose median build year is 1968 and which range from 1945 to 1969. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1968.
Its IMO number, 6806834, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 6×7 + 8×6 + 0×5 + 6×4 + 8×3 + 3×2 = 144 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.

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.
