This was a very dangerous trip, because the water around the most southern bit of the North American continent has very still water and is full of icebergs, making it hard to navigate.
Once the Panama Canal was in place, the traders could simply go straight through without having to go down and around the whole continent. This shortcut also saved travelers about three months on ship voyages.
