I guess the seagulls in panel 1 are to explain why everything goes so smoothly (plus if I recall correctly there were no dangers on the water all the way from Saimaa capital to Väinö’s) but still, this is ridiculous.

Ok,you are right, it’s still good value for its price so I shouldn’t complain BUT
