If people were sailing, it is highly likely that at least a few got blown wherever the wind took them.

So, yes, they probably did cross the Atlantic, whether on purpose or by happenchance.

The Phoenicians were probably less likely to go to places other than where they wanted to go, not least because they were all about commerce.
