Re: Looking to find transport crew for 51' Seaton Atlantic to Pacific

Unless you can reduce the 18' height by removing some structure there's no way I know of to move it by land. Specs on the US interstate highway system are 16' clearance min. Some will be higher but many will be right at 16'. Access and local roads can be 13-14'. With your boat on a trailer it will be at least 20'.

Ship transport or on her own bottom is the only option.
