A ship’s total internal capacity of a ship measured in register tons from the top of the floors to the tonnage deck.

Prescribed by flag/registration authorities, and usually excludes a small part of the stern. It is measured from the foreside of the stern at the extreme top to the afterside of the stern post.

Measurement from the underside of the upper deck on the centre line to the upper side of the bottom plating.

The individual and/or organisation listed that is responsible for the everyday management of a ship. This may be the same as the owner.

Used to indicate the capability of early reciprocating steam engines, based on dimensions rather than performance. It is not a true indication of actual engine power.
