In brief
The Rusadir is a roll on/roll off passenger vessel launched in 2018 by Flensburger Schiffbau Gesellschaft in Germany. She was to have been operated by Brittany Ferries as Honfleur, but they cancelled the contract in 2020 after extended delays. The incomplete vessel was then taken to Fosen Yard at Trondheim, Norway for completion. In March 2023 she was renamed Rusadir for a six-month charter to Baleària of Spain.

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 43,130 gross tons, Rusadir is the 12,150th 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 7.2 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 877 ro-ros held here, it ranks 58th by tonnage — larger than 93% of that group. Their median tonnage is 7,395 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 34,011 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Italy (62 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft, with 16 hulls on record.
Cyprus is the country of registry for 1,418 vessels in this directory, of which Rusadir is the 213th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (915 ships), and the median vessel measures 15,666 GT. Browse every ship flagged Cyprus.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 28 ro-ros flying the Cyprus flag, of which 1 is larger by tonnage.
Rusadir was built in 2022, making it 4 years old. It is one of 158 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 25,795 GT; within it this ship is the 38th largest. Across the whole of the 2020s the registry holds 1,769 vessels, median 29,777 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 118 vessels to Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft, with a median tonnage of 24,046 GT, delivered between 1900 and 2022. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 187.4 m overall, Rusadir is 62.5 m longer than the 125.0 m median for ro-ros on record, with a beam of 31.0 m and a draft of 6.6 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9832119 this registry holds 64 other vessels, whose median build year is 2019 and which range from 2017 to 2022. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2022.
Its IMO number, 9832119, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 8×6 + 3×5 + 2×4 + 1×3 + 1×2 = 139 — and the last digit of that total, 9, must equal the seventh digit, 9. It does, so this number is well formed.
