Seawise Giant had a DWT of 564,763 ton. DWT means DeadWeight Tonnage (also known as deadweight; abbreviated to DWT, D.W.T., d.w.t., or dwt) or tons deadweight (DWT) is a measure of how much weight a ship can carry. It is the sum of the weights of cargo, fuel, fresh water, ballast water, provisions, passengers, and crew.

And Jahre Viking. (Also, "Mont" was only a temporary name, used during the last voyage - to be scrapped). (To India...I think ??)

Area of the surface of the top deck in it was over 3 hectars👀

'Peak ship', an idol to worship for all the size maniacs out there. We're on the down side of the gauss curve now boys & girls :-D

You mean they could have put a museum in the boat! O_o

lol maybe not put it IN a museum. Maybe turn it into one though.

The Seawise Gaint is the Jahre Viking. Same ship.

VOCÊ TEM O VíDEO DELE SENDO LANÇADO NA ÁGUA? acho muito dificil

And you think only Americans could build big things.

Cool to see here in her prime (when she was brand new). Little did the narrators know she would be seriously damaged in the Persian Gulf and for a while deemed a total loss. It's funny to hear people in 1979 talking about "energy lifelines", as if the oil in the Middle East was some resource that would never dry up. Don't know what an "economical wonder" she was either since she couldn't sail through neither the Suez or Panama canals. Or the English channel even.
