Excellent idea David! I look forward to hearing others views on this, it seemed a plausible idea though. I've always been amazed at the scope of that war, at sea as well. While I really dont like to bring movies into discussions, the movie "Sahara" with the remains of a Confederate ship found in these desert regions was a great premise. The blockade runners were pretty busy in the Caribbean and they certainly made it across the Atlantic in some degree.
