Regarding the new transfer barge:
While the pictured method would certainly look pretty rad, we are planning to break over both the booster and ship to the horizontal position for transit from Starbase to the Cape. Initial deliveries are a single booster or ship per trip, with the plan to move to multiple vehicles per transit sooner than later. Youβll thank me later π€£
