Confirming this is the right choice: Jump into Amamake from Ossogur in a freighter
I tend to move large things with my freighter. Like, put up a buy order for 500m units of trit with range=2 and then go to all the stations and collect your trit. Melt it to something usable and haul it to market or PVP area. Freighters are especially nice for being able to move bigger ships or bigger amounts of ships.
I used a freighter last time I brought Harpies down to Amamake.

Buy a jump freighter. I staged out of Frerstorn with an Ark for a long time.

You could troll the **** out of the locals with a fleet of falcons and rapiers... :P

Ed: Rapiers are for getting the freighter out. 3x Fed Navy web Ashimmu with loki bonuses might also be pretty good - just make sure you start aligning the freighter out for a couple seconds first and it'll instawarp. If a blob lands on the gate ahead of you just C^Q before aggro and let the falcons jam everyone to keep the DPS off you.
With 5-8 guys I'd totally take a freighter through that triangle. Then again, I'd have a couple triage carriers on standby too. :P

Low sec / 0.0 / NPC 0.0 freighter ops aren't at all unheard of. Larger alliances tend to have rapiers for the instawarp + falcons for the jamz + bait cyno ship with cap fleet on standby. Even smaller alliances do it kinda frequently. Hell, IIRC every player created station in existence has required multiple freighter ops all the way from Empire.

It works because of:
- A ship is at rest it has no direction that it points - so any velocity it gains is always in the right direction.
- You only need to go a certain percentage of your top speed to get to warp.
- A ship that gets webbed suddenly has its top speed cut, which can mean that the ship is suddenly going many times faster than its top speed.
Basically: The freighter starts to (very slowly) warp out and gets slammed by 3-4 webs. Its now going roughly its top speed and its already pointing in the right direction and so it just instawarps.

Yeah, K->K WHs was my primary method of logistics when I lived in Stain. +1 to you - though K->WH->K is usually a better choice and is about the only way you're gonna get a hole big enough to get a cap through.
