I read this from my history book -
Many ships owned by the colonial merchants followed a direct route between the New England ports and England. They followed this route because the English government insisted . It wanted the colonists to send their exports, or goods leaving a country, only to England or other English colonies. The English government also expected to buy only English made imports, or goods brought back from a country.
