If someone wanted to pay me for an idea how to smuggle in a nuclear device that would destroy a strategic target like the Navy yards in San Diego I would tell them to create a situation on a cruise ship so its dead in the water, attach several or one large nuke to its hull underwater, create a diversion and then let it be towed to its target.

Wasteful and it would not need to be a large cruise ship, and you would not need to tow it. A very powerful nuc would not be all that big. You could probably do it with a small tour ship, or a relatively modest sized fishing boat (Deadliest Catch) from the Gulf of Mexico and then sail it to San Diego.

No large ship needed and it could just power itself in.

Too complicated. Just strap it to a Mexican and point him north.

Smiling takes 6.
