What is the length of the longest ship, cargo or otherwise?

my son-in-law was a Merchant Marine and told me the length of the ships he has captained, now that someone has pressed me for an accurate description, I want to be giving accurate answersWhat is the length of the longest ship, cargo or otherwise?
Here are some good examples:





1. Jahre Viking (Supertanker) 1,504 ft. 260,000 gross tons


2. USS Nimitz (Aircraft Carrier) 1,092 ft. 95,000 gross tons


3. Queen Mary (Cruise Ship) 1,019 ft. 81,000 gross tons
