The current state of mecha, giant robots in fenspace.

I think you have to split the answer into two parts... purpose built spaceships or modified (sometimes modified design) sea vessels. I am not counting ships made from asteroids in this post.

Spaceships:
I think the largest (as in length) one that has been produced more than once is the Gagarin-class (130m long, 228m width). Its designed similar to a plane, so its pretty light for a ship of its size (558 tons). Its also the only large design in Fenspace that have been produced more than a dozen times.

The Thrillmaster is also large (167.55 m) and heavy (9400 tons), its built from a lot of connected shipping containers.

The Belisarius is large, but its exact measurements and mass is unknown.

The Normandy (honorary entry Wink ) is quite heavy for its size... mainbody of 53*10*8 meters, but 830 tons. Two were built during Season 2, a third one is under construction in 2022 at Nostromo.

Sea vessels in space:
The Stingray started as a "normal" Seawolf Class built by the US (12000 tons)

The Fram is a waved ice-breaker (155m long, 22,400 tons).

The Pearl Starways is also quite large (178m long) and as a ferry its quite heavy (unclear, "GRT" is an unit of volume, not mass).
