What is the correct filter commands for large ships e.g. tankers, stock

I've tried the filter on symbol "s/SY", however I'm not getting any large
ships.

Large ships use AIS, not APRS. If you are only connected to APRS
servers, you should not see AIS data. I'm not sure where you would
need to connect to get AIS data.
