Plenty of ocean to go around. I don't think there's a place that would stop that thing, though it would have to go around South America and Africa (I don't think they'd be willing to choose the colder northern route, and you can forget the Panama and Suez canals, too). I wonder how are they planning to protect against icebergs? It's not like that ship will be very mano...mnu..m... easy to turn, is it?

Still, a neat idea.
