As the US Civil War began, President Lincoln ordered a blockade on all Southern ports. Lincoln believed that this would bring closer the end of the war. The blockade was impressive but not perfect. The blockade did capture many merchant ships with supplies for the Confederacy, but many more were able to avoid Union capture.Night time vision was not there, and even in daylight, Northern ships had a good degree of difficulty communicating with each other. Many things broke through the Northern blockade, one example is that General US Grant had confiscated 66,000 British rifles after Vicksburg surrendered that came through the Mississippi River.
