Depends on the crossing. Usually they will choose a route that is favorable. This is probably the same as the ocean crossings by row boat. ▶ this video Generally speaking there is a route called the "Milk Run" from Europe to the Caribbean that has tail winds and good currents in the right direction. Also much nicer weather.
