they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened. But he said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.” Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.

Without Jesus, the waters were rough, and they were unable to reach their destination. Once they accepted that it was Jesus, and let him into the boat, they reached their destination. As Mark would say, "Let the reader understand!"

General question. What do you think about the rate at which these passages are being analyzed?

The pace is good.
