The impact of the blockade in helping to end the war faster is still under debate by historians. The South's manufacturing abilities paled against the strong manufacturing base of the North, but was significant in certain aspects of the war such as munitions manufacturing and building part of its navy. Privateers were successful in avoiding many blockading efforts. Clearly without advanced detection devices such as radar, capturing Southern ships and privateers, was extremely difficult in the darkness of night.
