Hello,

To do that you would need to follow these steps here:

Take a snapshot of the Droplet.
Once complete, transfer the snapshot to a new owner. The new owner must accept the transfer.
The new owner can then recreate the Droplet from the snapshot.

For more information on each step, I would suggest the following documentation:

Best,
