Cape Canaveral or Cape Romain? or both?

[hobbit]

I thought Spanish treasure fleets would generally turn NE towards Bermuda after sighting Cape Canaveral. A book I am reading states that they would not turn East until reaching Cape Romain in present day South Carolina. Which is true? Does it depend on the time period? How about individual ships not in a royal convoy?. I am sure this has probably been covered before but...

It depended on the time of the year.During the summer the gulf stream is closer to the shore.
