Crossbows don't refuse to fire when wet, unlike black powder. So they might have had a certain attraction to a naval expedition. As well, the raw materials for additional quarrels could be reasonably be trusted to be found all over the world; I could see an expedition planner worried about easily obtaining the raw materials for black powder in Terra Incognita.
