How to move Monitors with lower risk?

[pakfront]

I'm having trouble moving my Monitors past a hostile coast without every fort along the way taking a pot shot.
Is there a way to avoid this unwanted attention, or is it just the nature of these beasts to have to run too close to shore to avoid fire?

I suppose an admiral with fort runner and evade orders would be the best you could do. This is as it should be though, monitors are shore huggers and there to pound forts and protect your shores. Use seaworthy vessels for big movements around the continent.
