People could cut through areas with the river rather than going around twisty ways that would take longer it cut through the land and the wind blew in favor for the sails

The river flowed one way while the wind blew the other way which made sailing easier. If you wanted to go upstream you lowered the sails. If you wanted to go downstream you raised the sails
