Best Answer

The Southern Coastlines on the east and southern parts of the Confederacy were immense. So much so that it may have seemed impossible to create an effective Union blockade to halt Confederate trade. With that said, the ports without water or rail links into the South's interior could in most cases be overlooked by the commanders of the Union blockaders.
