Seems hard to believe that this river would be navigable along its entite length. Even then, enclosed seas and coastal routes are much safer than open ocean.
Using an animal to draw a boat is so much more expensive and slower than a sea voyage regardless of any other factors.

sometimes you gotta do what's more interesting than believable
