You know, not running into islands or reefs. This imaginary boat doesn't have much draft, either. Just curious if someone has worked this out ever.

I'm looking at Great Circle Routes. Google Earth's line or path aren't functional enough for this question because it appears to be possible to get much more than half way around. Longest I've tried so far appears to go from the coast of Kamchatka through the Aleutians to between Antartica and South America, then up the east coast of Africa, maybe all the way to south Asia.
Still curious...
