Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a container ship, convert it to a data center and connect it to a bunch of floating panels?

Most systems use fresh water for cooling. Salt water can corrode pipes and deposit sediment, but maybe there's a way to use ocean water efficiently.

They also need to be powered and connected to a network, but that seems like an easier problem.
