Yard 557 (AMERICAN CHALLENGER) - IMO 5014252
When LR first introduced their 6-digit unique numbers in 1964, they added a "5" to the beginning of the sequential number for all ships in the 1963 register. New additions from 1964 were given 64xxxx numbers. The allocation system changed a few times subsequently, but new 5xxxxx were not issued. Thus LR/IMO numbers 5xxxxxx have no relevance to the age of the vessel, except that they were listed in 1963 LR.
