Hi James,
5 cubic feet = 250 pints = 62.5 waterskins
So you would need say 3 barrels and 2 waterskins per "step"
You would want:

A cart 15Gp ×1.5 = 22.5 GP
Two draught animals (donkeys, 8GP each) 16×1.5 = 24 GP
3 barrels (@40 gallons per = 80 waterskins) = 6 ×1.5 = 9 GP
= 55.5 GP
Which is starting gold and 1 MVP. This can all be bought from the mainland
via the ship as per character creation.
Remember: you can drag double your load.
Might have to handle a cart by working out proposed loads in pounds. We'll
see if they become popular.
Best regards
Peter

Ice platforms such as bridges or stairs would be rather useful, If we can
find something to pull it along, an ice cart/sled or something like that
would be useful, just have to keep casting to keep it together lol
especially as there is no one to buy a wagon from atm haha

Well, in 6 seconds you can cast it once.
In one minute you could construct 50 cubic foot of ice platform and then
propel it along gently. You would almost certainly be better off rowing,
although the silent uses are quite strong.
With respect to making something move, you are almost certainly better off
pushing your chair to make it move.
This is because you can't use the spell to cause damage so getting any
velocity out of it would be challenging.
Mold Earth is a classic for a reason!

I was thinking more a an ice raft to cross water like what we needed in
the last game... So making a frozen area of water, and move that that area
of frozen water...
Or for something completely different lol make a frozen chair with ski's
on the bottom and move that frozen chair along the ground.
Oh I'm taking mould earth to cut down on the grave digging time hahaha

"You choose an area of water that you can see within range and that fits
within a 5-foot cube. You manipulate it in one of the following ways:
-
You instantaneously move or otherwise change the flow of the water as
you direct, up to 5 feet in any direction. This movement doesn’t have
enough force to cause damage.
-
You cause the water to form into simple shapes and animate at your
direction. This change lasts for 1 hour.
-
You change the water’s color or opacity. The water must be changed in
the same way throughout. This change lasts for 1 hour.
-
You freeze the water, provided that there are no creatures in it. The
water unfreezes in 1 hour.
If you cast this spell multiple times, you can have no more than two of
its non-instantaneous effects active at a time, and you can dismiss such an
effect as an action."

1 Can I move the water up into the air? the spell says you can move the
water in any direction, does that include up and down?
Yes.
2 can I move the water that I have frozen? Not as an attack. the spell
says I can have two effects going at the same time.
You can, but it says that you can move it and have it one of either:
Shaped
Coloured
Or Frozen.
So you couldn't have it shaped and coloured, or frozen and shaped.
However I approve of your plan to make ice lollies, so may allow latitude
with the use of a cup and stick.
