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 1,570 gross tons, RMS Laar is the 61,095th 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 3.8 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 1,085 multi-purposes held here, it ranks 875th by tonnage — larger than 8% of that group. Their median tonnage is 2,998 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 11,901 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Netherlands (170 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is SLKB Komarno – Slovak Shipyard Komárno, with 78 hulls on record.
Liberia is the country of registry for 4,741 vessels in this directory, of which RMS Laar is the 4,577th 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 18 multi-purposes flying the Liberia flag, of which 13 are larger by tonnage.
RMS Laar was built in 1985, making it 41 years old. It is one of 1,312 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 4,782 GT; within it this ship is the 905th 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 106 vessels to Peters Werft, with a median tonnage of 2,236 GT, delivered between 1939 and 2009. See the rest of that yard’s output.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 8508400 this registry holds 37 other vessels. 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, 8508400, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 8×7 + 5×6 + 0×5 + 8×4 + 4×3 + 0×2 = 130 — and the last digit of that total, 0, must equal the seventh digit, 0. It does, so this number is well formed.
