The Seawise Giant was a 564,763 ton super super-tanker. She was the longest and largest man-made creation on the sea - recalls the erection over 2,000 years earlier of the Great Wall of China - longest and largest man-made creation on the land. Tow wonders of the old and new worlds: the Great Wall, relentlessly forging its way up and down mountain ramparts for 3107 miles on its interminable vigil of guarding an ancient land; the Seawise Giant, sailing ever onward in her vital role of carrying oil across the endless sea.
