Considering what we've seen of Earth Kingdom ships (which appear to be wooden, at least from what we see of the earth kingdom pirate ship.), sailing into the land of fire on wooden vessels probably isn't the best way to go, especially since the Fire Nation would probably have tough defenses on the Western shores, otherwise it would be ridiculously easy for the Earth Kingdom to invade. Also, who says they haven't tried? There are many battles we don't hear about.
