In context
How Professor Multanovskiy compares
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 1,753 gross tons, Professor Multanovskiy is the 59,543rd 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 3.4 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 617 passenger vessels held here, it ranks 140th by tonnage — larger than 72% of that group. Their median tonnage is 909 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 9,718 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Egypt (65 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Meyer Werft, with 16 hulls on record.
Russia is the country of registry for 2,810 vessels in this directory, of which Professor Multanovskiy is the 1,487th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (830 ships), and the median vessel measures 2,293 GT. Browse every ship flagged Russia.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 13 passenger vessels flying the Russia flag, of which 4 are larger by tonnage.
Professor Multanovskiy was built in 1983, making it 43 years old. It is one of 1,578 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 3,112 GT; within it this ship is the 938th largest. Across the whole of the 1980s the registry holds 13,213 vessels, median 3,004 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 55 vessels to Meyer Turku, with a median tonnage of 10,834 GT, delivered between 1951 and 2027. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 71.0 m overall, Professor Multanovskiy is 10.0 m longer than the 61.0 m median for passenger vessels on record.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 8010362 this registry holds 56 other vessels, whose median build year is 1981 and which range from 1979 to 1983. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1983.
Its IMO number, 8010362, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 8×7 + 0×6 + 1×5 + 0×4 + 3×3 + 6×2 = 82 — and the last digit of that total, 2, must equal the seventh digit, 2. It does, so this number is well formed.
