The series expansion procedure of Michel (1893) is used to calculate the highest wave solution and corresponding particle trajectories. The results are compared with those obtained by Longuet-Higgins (1979) using the ‘hexagon’ approximation for the highest deep-water wave. Reasonable agreement is found between the two sets of results.
