No gross tonnage is recorded for this vessel, so it cannot be ranked by size. Rank is only shown where the underlying measurement exists.

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.
United Kingdom is the country of registry for 2,394 vessels in this directory. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (1,835 ships), and the median vessel measures 2,515 GT. Browse every ship flagged United Kingdom.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 1,835 vessels this registry holds no type classification for flying the United Kingdom flag.
SS Tynwald was built in 1947, making it 79 years old. It is one of 69 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 2,304 GT. Across the whole of the 1940s the registry holds 1,039 vessels, median 4,053 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 51 vessels to Cammell Laird, with a median tonnage of 4,791 GT, delivered between 1913 and 2019. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 105.1 m overall, SS Tynwald is 9.9 m shorter than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record, with a beam of 47.0 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 5371739 this registry holds 11 other vessels, whose median build year is 1955 and which range from 1934 to 1969. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1947.
Its IMO number, 5371739, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 5×7 + 3×6 + 7×5 + 1×4 + 7×3 + 3×2 = 119 — and the last digit of that total, 9, must equal the seventh digit, 9. It does, so this number is well formed.

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.
