You're right it's not a very accurate map. The depiction of Europe is fairly primitive. It's not correct as to Labrador and Newfoundland, either. The upper indentation looks like the water leading to Goose Bay. The lower "finger" looks like the northern peninsula of Newfoundland, where L'anse was IIRC, but if so they hadn't followed the east coast completely around, and didn't know the water between Labrador and Newfoundland was not enclosed.
But the real problem with the map a failure to have a hysterical label for Greenland warning the glaciers are melting and we're all gonna die if we don't raise taxes. :-))
