Charon would need to borrow the Seawise Giant to ferry this guy accross the river styx given the weight of his sins.

Seawise Giant was bombed by Iraqi aircraft and sunk in the Persian Gulf in 1988. Somehow it was salvaged, repaired and put back to commercial use.

And prone to cracking, hence the short life. This one, the Seawise Giant, was three times bigger

In the final part of my Seawise Giant series, I cover the death of what remains the biggest ship ever built.

Torn asunder by the breakers of Alang beach, it could be considered an ignoble end — but it’s an opportunity to look at the global ship breaking industry and Hong Kong’s historic role in it.

The former Seawise Giant, the biggest ship on the planet, finally touches land again – but only by sailing headlong into its own doom.

Bigness confers benefits (particularly with ships) but there do seem to be size limits.

The largest supertanker (Seawise Giant) was built in 1979 and no shipbuilder has built anything bigger.

Politicos might also note, though, that Seawise Giant was owned by none other than CY Tung: the ROC-aligned shipping mogul whose son and heir, Tung Chee-hwa, became HK's first Chief Executive. The Seawise Giant's story is also the story of a local political dynasty's dramatic reversal.

So I'm protecting my peace and (mostly) ignoring politics to get back to my happy place: maritime history.

In a new 3-part series for Zolima, I look at the incredible story of Seawise Giant, the Hong Kong-owned tanker that — even decades after she was scrapped — remains the largest ship ever built.

We explore the troubled legacy of the Seawise Giant, once the world’s largest ship — and one with a connection to Hong Kong.

New research by SEAwise, contributed to by Klaas Sys (of CIBBRiNA partner ILVO), investigates the varied impacts of spatial management strategies – such as marine protected areas (MPAs) and gear restrictions – on populations of commercial #fish and #ETP species across European waters. [1/4]

New Range Rover Sport SV Carbon breaks cover

New Range Rover Sport SV Carbon breaks cover
The prospect of ‘ultra-lightweight detailing’ on a Range Rover Sport SV might make about as much sense as using titanium bolts on the Seawise Giant, but the model has a proud relationship with visible composite - who could forget the carbon bonnet that adorned so many SVRs? And if you go the whole hog with the option list - i.e. spec the 23-inch Carbon Fibre Wheels - you will apparently end up with a 635hp SV that’s 76kg lighter than standard.

The Maritime Museum Jockey Club Anchor Plaza was completed on Friday, the museum said. The new plaza in Central is focused around a 36-tonne anchor of the Seawise Giant, the largest cargo vessel ever built. It will open to the public in the third quarter of this year. Photos: Maritime Museum.
