How did the Egyptians trade?

the main trade artery in Egypt focused along the Nile and it was very easy to trade by the simple boats that the Egyptians used. The Nile flowed south to north but the winds blew north to south, so they simple hoisted the sails when they wanted to go south and just dropped the sails and let the boat drift with the current when they wanted to go north. This had some interesting consequences, because it was so easy to sail in Egypt, the ancient Egyptians did not learn to sail well on seas. This, along with desert on three sides and the sea on the other, helped isolate Egyptian from the rest of the world.
