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 15,825 gross tons, Naldera is the 30,314th 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 2.6 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 617 passenger vessels held here, it ranks 18th by tonnage — larger than 97% 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.
United Kingdom is the country of registry for 2,394 vessels in this directory, of which Naldera is the 336th largest by tonnage. 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 16 passenger vessels flying the United Kingdom flag, of which 2 are larger by tonnage.
Naldera was built in 1920, making it 106 years old. It is one of 58 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 2,194 GT; within it this ship is the 1st largest. Across the whole of the 1920s the registry holds 516 vessels, median 2,350 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 4 vessels to Caird & Company, with a median tonnage of 11,158 GT, delivered between 1902 and 1920. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 176.8 m overall, Naldera is 115.8 m longer than the 61.0 m median for passenger vessels on record, with a beam of 20.5 m and a draft of 9.1 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 1142257 this registry holds 35 other vessels, whose median build year is 1918 and which range from 1905 to 1922. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1920.
Its IMO number, 1142257, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 1×7 + 1×6 + 4×5 + 2×4 + 2×3 + 5×2 = 57 — and the last digit of that total, 7, must equal the seventh digit, 7. It does, so this number is well formed.
