This ship is 800 feet long and 130 feet wide, but it's still not big enough to be considered a supertanker, or very large crude carrier (VLCC). Supertankers are typically 25% longer, 25% wider, and 2-3 times heavier than this one.

The new lighthouse is on the right, a radar reflector. I think most boats use that and GPS rather than lighthouses.
