Once everyone has made their selections and are ready Nier assigns seats in the boat and disappears into the water. The water around the craft swells as the boat accelerates forward at an unexpected pace, fortunately everyone was seated. The boat seems too large for some portions of the streams and tributaries but as you approach it’s as if the boat rides upon a wave easily traversing even difficult areas eventually leaving the glade behind.
There is a drastic change in the natural surroundings as you leave the glade, the trees and vegetation thin and are far from healthy looking areas of the water are stagnant and swampy looking, you notice a few swirls in the water where creatures are moving about but at the rate you are traveling nothing approaches the boat. For many hours you watch the miles fly by, until by around five in the afternoon. Nier's aqueous form sloshes over the rail and she stands before you all, looking tired, "That's it for today, I must rest. Please keep a look out there are frogs about."
If there was anything you wanted to do during the hours of traveling feel free to describe your trip. Everyone roll a perception check please.

Umbriel quite enjoys the trip, mapping what he can as they go. The tiny fae in his pocket even peeks out at some points.
Mapping roll: (wisdom+ advantage from Survival) 19
When they come to a stop, he puts his tools and the partial map away to study the surroundings and watch for 'frogs'. Somehow he doubts they are the normal type if Nier is worried about them.
Umbriel sees a set of bulbous eyes just under the surface of the water as he make a round of the boats perimeter then hears a croak from the shore, it seems that a stationary boat is attracting some amphibious attention.
Initiative will be PCs first then filth toads currently there are 2 underwater near the boat and possibly more near the shore 15-30ft away.
Umbriel whips and drags a large toad out from hiding.
Tyr ices the surface above the black toad.
Faelin goes to the edge of the boat, using his pipes of the sewers. (They will show up in one round)
Sylnache goes to the opposite side of the boat to attack the large toad, uses inspiration but still fails to land a hit.
The gray toad swims to the front of the boat its tongue lashes out at Tyr attack 21 Tyr’s arm is grappled and bitten for 3 bludgeoning damage.
The black toad swims under the boat emerging on the opposite side and tries to tongue grapple Faelin, attack Crit Faelin tips over the edge of the boat his head is bitten for 10 bludgeoning damage & grappled.
The large filth toad opens wide lunging to swallow Sylnache. Attack 21 for 9 bludgeoning and grappled.
As the filth toads all surround the boat everyone except Umbriel make a Con save DC 10 vs poisoned condition.
end of round 1
begining of round 2
a swarm of rats scurries into the water surrounding and attacking the big toad, they slip slide and fail to actually sink in any good bites.

(Sorry! Trying to get caught up) Tyr chats with Nier while the others make their trades, happy to be in the company of a being who seems to share similar memories to his own. Once they get underway he also enjoys the trip, and will jot down notes on the settlement idly as they travel.
Heeding Nier's warning, Tyr will send a Ray of Frost towards the toad Umbriel didn't whip on the shore side of the boat, hoping to slow its approach. To hit: 11. Damage if that hits: 3.

Faelin noticing the large toad with barely concealed disgust will attempt to get as far away from it as possible without going into the water or overboard, being extra careful with his newfound garb. He will start to play a melody on his new pipes and attempt to summon some rats to his aid.

Would Faelin need to use his action to control the rats or would they just do whatever and attack the toads?

Check the spoiler and the toad jerks violently and lets loose with its grapple... as Faelin wades through the water on his way to shore.
