I also don’t understand why sailing it around Cape Horn to get to Texas is more economical than taking it apart on the west coast. Just sailing it those 10,000 miles will cost something, fuel, crew, food etc….who pays for that. The Texas buyer or the Navy.
Based on the simple laws of physics, it takes a lot less energy to move it by water than overcoming gravity and friction necessary to move it by land.
