Moving Project Habakkuk into the Pacific

Could Habakkuk survive warm Pacific waters, and how would it get there?

Its material and refrigeration should keep it intact, but it would need a difficult route around Africa or South America.

Pykrete's sawdust-and-ice mixture plus onboard refrigeration was intended to prevent catastrophic melting in warm water. Pacific temperatures are therefore manageable in principle. The larger challenge would be moving the immense structure around Africa or South America, perhaps through high southern latitudes before turning north. The answer makes inter-theater routing and towing a harder problem than simple survival in tropical seas.
