BEN-MY-CHREE against its type
Built in 1998, it is 2 years older than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 12,747 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 2 ro-pax ships here under the Isle of Man flag, 0.4% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 22 other vessels here, 15 of them ro-pax ships. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Douglas as port of registry.
Its 2,048 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 93% below the median of 30,062 t among the 417 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 256.8 kg CO₂, 45% below the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 543 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for ro-pax ships was 6.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (23,280 t) and the lowest 2024 (555 t). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 91.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 269.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
