WI Cabot landed in the Cape, Manhattan or Chesapeake? Would English exploratory or exploitation follow-up have been any faster than in the case of Newfoundland?



a) yes, because the land might have been more interesting in terms of agriculture or fur trade

b) no, because nothing non-tropical would be sufficiently enticing to divert English attention to America

c) Yes because Cabot would have been more likely to survive and find more interesting variety if he was sailing in waters not so far to the north.
