As Razlov was browsing the system Item shop, he noticed that almost all of the things listed are World War 1 or World War 2 relic like Renault FT, M4 Sherman, U-boat, Panzer 1, etc, etc. The list contains guns, land vehicles, planes, ships, and even artilleries, all are war machine used during the two World Wars in his previous life.
Razlov keeps searching all the categories and all he found was those relics from the World Wars. There's actually zero modern weaponry at the Item shop, all he could do is just give up and just settle with those that are currently available.
Selecting the 'Ships' category then going to the 'Patrol Boats' section. Razlov searches the list for a suitable boat that their remaining funds can afford. He needed the boat because of the issue of travel between Kurlian Island and Sanloris or mainland to be specific.
Traveling from Kurlian Island to Sanloris takes 3 days and it's already the fastest if the weather is good during the travel and it would take 4-5 days when the weather is bad which is a pain in the ass and not time efficient. So what Razlov needed right now is a boat to ease travel in the sea between two places.
As Razlov was searching for a boat, he could see that all kinds of it, from small boats which can be manned by a 3-5 crew to big ones that can carry up to 30 crew and all of them are affordable only if he has the money to afford it. The biggest patrol boat that he saw was 8000 CP in price and it can be operated by 10-12 crew and can carry up to 30 people; Razlov really wanted to buy this but right now he doesn't have the amount to purchase it.
After searching for a while, Razlov finally found the right boat, it's an Activity-class Patrol Boat that was used during World War II and he could afford it cause it only cost 1500 CP which is important cause he's funds are limited right at the moment. He really wanted to buy it immediately but restrain himself from doing it cause right now the harbor is still not complete.

The next day
{Ding!}
{The building of the Harbor is now complete}
{Host can now view and use the Harbor}
When Razlov heard the system's notification, he immediately opens the Item shop window and purchases the boat that he found the other day. As he saw the boat in the Item shop window, he did not waste any time and immediately purchase it.
{Ding!}
{Purchase Complete}
{Transfering Purchased Item into the Harbor..... Transfer Complete}
{Host can now view the item at the Harbor}
Razlov heave a sigh of relief when he heard that the boat has been transferred to the harbor cause his inventory is limit and cannot put it inside because of it's size. Right now he is in the camp, just imagine that a boat of that size suddenly appearing in the middle of the camp would certainly cause panic and headache to him.
Arriving at the Harbor, Razlov could see that everything was in place. He continues to walk further inside into the place where boats or ships are usually anchored. When he arrives at the place, he sees the boat that he purchased.
The boat is maybe 10-12 meters in length, it can be operated by 5-8 crews and there are living quarters and storage room for food inside the boat's deck. Its arsenals are one 40mm anti-air gun which is the main gun and four .50 caliber Browning machine gun emplacement, one on each side of the boat and two at the back of the boat.

Satisfied with the boat, Razlov keeps nodding as he checks every part of the boat. In this age that the ships or boat are made out of wood, Razlov boat would surely decimate any ship or boat that tries to attack them. In the future and even right now with the acquisition of this patrol boat they have already gain naval superiority making them invincible in the sea.
Before going back to the camp he already converted 300 gold coins into CP and bought ammunition and fuel for the boat then he stored it inside or load the guns and refuel the boat in full making his state of funds back to being poor again but Razlov was satisfied with his spending; it was worth it.
Arriving at the camp, he summoned the two teams and the 2 helpers and ordered them to follow him. On the way to the harbor, the group was confused at first, they have never been in this part of the island cause usually their lives revolve around the camp and its surroundings to the beach where they park the fishing boat that they use to travel between the island and Sanloris.
When they arrive and saw the harbor they were all stunned speechless at what they saw.
"W~What is this?"
"Is that port? It's a port, right?"
"I've never seen a port like this, it's much more impressive than the port at Sanloris"
The group keeps looking around like country bumpkins first time visiting a big city and keeps making a ruckus as they continued on further into the harbor.
When they arrive at the place where the boat was anchored, Razlov stops and look back at the crowd that was following him then he pointed at the boat.
"From now on, this boat is the one that we will be using instead of the fishing boat that we have been using in the past."
Looking at where their Commander is pointing his finger, they were all stunned again at what they saw. Then they look at their Commander in disbelief thinking 'How is this a boat? It doesn't even have a sail on it' or ' What kind of boat is that, does it even float since it's made of metal'.
Seeing their disbelieving look, Razlov could understand that since it's their first time seeing something so unreal like the fact that metal doesn't float in the water, so why would they believe that this boat can actually float.
"It seems like you all don't believe me, in that case, I just have to show it you all"
"Come on. let's board the boat"
Arriving at the helm of the boat, Razlov press the start button to start the engine. With the sound of the engine starting, Razlov reminiscence and thought 'Ah, the sound of civilization and modernization'.
Razlov couldn't be blamed with these thoughts of his since this world is really outdated and its still in the medieval age. So the sound that he always hear back on his previous life that was sometimes annoying is really music to the ears right now.
After the chain that ties the boat to the harbor was release, he slowly pushes forward the engine lever to move the boat forward.
When the crowd saw that metal boat or patrol boat at how their Commander address it start moving further into the sea and away from the harbor, each and every one of them gawked and speechless at what they are experiencing right now. They would have never believed that something like this can actually float even though its made of metal and can move even though it doesn't have any sail.
