Itinerary advice - Sweden to St Petes

Hi folks, I'm looking for some advice on an itinerary for an upcoming trip in May 2017.

May 8: arrive in Stockholm at 12-noon
May 9-11: explore Stockholm, including one day trip (Vaxholm, Uppsala/Sigtuna, or other)
May 12-13: car ferry to Gotland. One day to be spent driving around the island.
May 14: overnight ferry from Stockholm to Tallinn
May 15: explore Tallinn
May 16: ferry to Helsinki
May 17: Helsinki then overnight ferry to St. Petersburg (on St. Petes line for visa free travel)
May 18-21: St. Petersburg
May 21: overnight ferry back to Helsinki.

Overall thoughts on this route? This is my first time to the region and just looking to get a taste of each spot. However, I'm wary of trying to pack too much in to the tight schedule, so open to advice on changes to the itinerary. Any thoughts appreciated! Thanks.

Thank you, Laura. Yes we plan to get the early ferry back to the mainland on the 14th and off to Tallinn the same evening!
