Shipping losses when no enemy presence?

Just had this happen in my server game was moving a divisions from Danzig to Leningrad via Sea transportation---lost 25% of the division due transports being hit in route.
This seems really odd as the Soviets have 0 interdiction on any of those hexes and have lost all of the ports. Working as designed?

Yes, there's always a small chance of loss when moving by sea.

to randomly lose 4k or so men to super low odds random stuff seems alittle daft.
I could understand if the Soviets actually had a port or some air interdiction up, if the other side is doing nothing/has nothing operational in the area you shouldn't just lose 25% of a division.
Even in 1945 the Soviets did a relatively piss poor job of stopping German naval movements let alone in 1941 with nothing operational at all destroying 1/4th a division in transit.
Its just dumb.
