In context

How Algoma Spirit 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.

Canada is the country of registry for 633 vessels in this directory. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (404 ships), and the median vessel measures 1,800 GT. Browse every ship flagged Canada.

Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 34 bulk carriers flying the Canada flag.

Algoma Spirit was built in 1986, making it 40 years old. It is one of 866 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 4,769 GT. 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 120 vessels to 3. Maj, with a median tonnage of 18,602 GT, delivered between 1900 and 2023. See the rest of that yard’s output.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 8504882 this registry holds 33 other vessels, whose median build year is 1985 and which range from 1984 to 1988. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1986.

Its IMO number, 8504882, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 8×7 + 5×6 + 0×5 + 4×4 + 8×3 + 8×2 = 142 — and the last digit of that total, 2, must equal the seventh digit, 2. It does, so this number is well formed.
