Bus 583 via MarstaorSilja Line ferry to Helsinki, by SL train, metro and bus 76?
The short answer
These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Bus 583 via Marsta reaches Stockholm City and the central station above it; the Silja Line ferry to Helsinki, by SL train, metro and bus 76 does not. This goes on by overnight ferry to Helsinki, landing at the Olympia Terminal, which Tallink Silja puts within walking distance of the Esplanade; it does not reach Helsinki Airport.
The Bus 583 via Marsta is quicker: 1 h 01 against 18 h 56.

Journey
61 min
This is the whole point of the page: SEK 43 against SEK 200 for the same journey with the same operator, because it starts at a bus stop rather than a ticket gate.
It takes 61 minutes against the direct train's 38, and it needs one change at Marsta. That is what the 157 kronor buys.
Bus 583 runs from Terminals 2 and 3 as well as Sky City, roughly every 15 minutes.
SL tickets are not valid on Arlanda Express, on SJ trains through Arlanda, or on Flygbussarna.

One boat a day, at 16:30 from Värtahamnen, landing at 10:30 the next morning in Helsinki time. To be at the terminal an hour before, leave Arlanda by about 14:00.
Tallink says to arrive an hour before. Registration closes 30 minutes before departure and boarding 20 minutes before; late arrivals need a new ticket.
SEK 157 of the SL ticket is the Arlanda passage fee, charged once at the station gates; the single on top of it covers the metro and the bus. Under-18s pay no fee.
