221 hulls are grouped into 11 categories describing how the fortune behind them was made — the organising principle of the whole register.
Categories are editorial, assigned when a hull enters the register, and describe the source of the owner's wealth rather than the vessel itself.
Computed from the register on this page load. Position data runs through 27 Jul 2026; 221 hulls and 175 owners are on file. The same figures are available through the data API.
