color:#1F497D'>I have more confidence in 8427034 for three reasons. First it
is also the IMO listed in the URL Lesley gave (<a
href="http://e-ships.net/index/K4.shtml">http://e-ships.net/index/K4.shtml</a>).
Secondly, there seems to be an approximate relationship between IMO and date of
build and from what I’ve seen IMOs larger than 9,000,000 are associated with
ships built in the 1990s. Thirdly, the information on digital.seas seems very
sparse, which gives me concern about its authenticity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

help with this?<br>
