[Lord of the Rings] What would have happened if they took the One Ring to Valinor?

Cirdan was still running elves out to the West, what would have happened if they took the Ring there? Would an elven ship be blocked from entering if they carried it? Would they have been able to pull an Eärendil 2.0?

Pretty much.  Either blocked from entering or they simply wouldn't be able to reach Aman, which had been removed the the circles of the world in the Second Age.  From *The Fellowship of the Ring*, "The Council of Elrond"

>'Then if the Ring cannot be kept from him for ever by strength' said Glorfindel, 'two things only remain for us to attempt: to send it over the Sea, or to destroy it.'

>'But Gandalf has revealed to us that we cannot destroy it by any craft that we here possess,' said Elrond. `And they who dwell beyond the Sea would not receive it: for good or ill it belongs to Middle-earth; it is for us who still dwell here to deal with it.'
