right thats one wee big momma ;)

sheer calculations following spelljammer ruleset:
10 foot cube is considered 1 ton if I remember
correctly

a 540' foot diameter means a surface of (
(Pi*diameter)/4 ) = (540*3,14...)/4 = 424 square feet

that multiplied by the heigth of the disc gives us the
cubic content of the ship => 424 * 220 = 93305 cube
feet

so that divided by 10 (being the amount of space one
ton takes in the spelljammer universe) would give you
a ship of approximately 9330 tons!!
that is if my calculations are correct (the formulas
are but as i said I'm not quite certain of the 10 cube
feet in 1 ton)

not as big as the spelljammer itself but still way to
big to move around using known means... biggest helm I
recall goes up to 200 tons...
