    That's a big ship.

    But the Jahre Viking (Nock Nevis) is bigger.

    Bergalia,

    Agreed, but the Knock Nevis is the largest super tanker, not the largest Cargo ship.

    It is not the cargo classification, but the ship classification that is in question, but we can call a truce on this.
