[@montymontano8618]

What an episode. You covered several thousand years of nautical history including current engine maintainence as well as printing from runes to computers.

[@selsyn73]

Johan and Malin, you did a great job on this video. Seeing your beautiful country and the fascinating treasures was great. Glad you are back safely on Ran. Peace

[@slimpickins3425]

Well I have finally caught up with every video from the beginning to the present! Thank you so much for sharing your adventures from departure in Sweden to transiting the Panama Canal to your Pacific crossing to Hawaii, then North to Alaska! I love every one!

[@davidnichols147]

So nice that you were with family over the Christmas & New Year Holiday's.

[@michaeltaylor520]

Loved the tour of Southern Sweden. The ancient burial grounds look a lot like those we saw in Ireland. Your country is absolutely beautiful !

[@smokedoliver1]

I especially enjoyed your travels around your homeland. Beautiful countryside!

[@davekrochenski]

Sweet, local ancient history legend and lore, That's exactly the reason I'd be traveling the seas... Good on ye folks for sharing, I'm tickled.

[@robfraley4210]

Interesting history back home there in Sweden 🇸🇪 Glad the new sails made it on the plane ✈️ though. Bummer about the engine work,that was a lot. But it’s all Over and done with now😬. Now to get your recovered sails back for RAN two 🤭👍✅🤫

[@akselsonne]

Thanx for the meeting i Malmø. Nice to get the histori about AlesStena i relation to other vikings site i south sweden.

[@RANSailing]

Thank you for watching!

[@nena4215]

Thank you very much for the tour, that is the land of my great, great grand parents! I have these strange bumps on my hands and when the hand surgeon looked at them he said “Oh, you’re a Viking, only Vikings have these.” That is sure a lot of work to do on the motor, I can’t believe you can do all that! Looking forward to seeing it. Welcome back! Nena

[@frankd2301]

Always fun to VISIT the cold 🥶. But not so fun to live in it

[@MrRJBooth]

I often wonder why people don't bother to like a video/vlog . It costs nothing and does a little good for the people who make these videos/ vlogs that we watch after they have put the time and effort in to edit the film they have taken for our pleasure to watch . Spread the word . LIKE LIKE LIKE :-) . Another brilliant watch guys . Many thanx :-)

[@geraldtonjjeeper]

I really enjoy the calmness you two bring to your continuing adventure and the connections you make to your ancestry! The lack of hype makes your videos very enjoyable. Best winds and fast passages to you. Enjoying very much! Where to next?

[@normanboyes4983]

Professional job all round.👍😀⛵️

[@dk2428]

Never took the time to visit Skåne while visiting my brother who lives near Jönköping, thats going to change now... Another excellent video!! 🙏😍

[@rerolley]

I didn't know that bagpipes were played in Sweden. I learn something new with each of your videos. Glad you made it back to Ran. I am sure she was missing you.

[@RANSailing]

Bagpipes isn't a Swedish tradition. The bagpipe guy just happened to be there... :-)

[@freedomrider30]

[@tombarker3608]

Such a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing your home and family. It was fun to see your Christmas traditions much like ours in the states. It was also fun listening to you speak in your native voice. I hope to hear more in future videos. Safe travel you two from Minnesota USA home of the National Football League Vikings.

[@peterculverwell2030]

What a great episode, such interesting material from your Sweden trip, quite fascinating. Thanks for sharing and I am looking forward to the surgery on the “iron heart” of Ran.

Swedish bagpipes. Who knew?! Great episode. Proud vikings from RAN.

[@Vyldstar]

They are like Scottish bagpipes, only they cook quicker and are flatter.

[@larrycase2762]

So nice to get a glimpse of your home country. Good to see your family also. Safe travels.

[@TexSavage]

My grandparents emigrated from Sweden. I’ve visited briefly a number of years ago spending a day In Stockholm and Gothenburg. Thanks for sharing.

[@RANSailing]

Thanks for watching!

[@Mxxxxxxxx610]

Johan, don’t worry, smoke is just the indicator that your Volvo engine is running. It’s a feature, not a problem. 👍

[@RANSailing]

Hahaha! True, but it could run better... :-)

[@suzanneouimet6977]

Every since we read Henning Mankell's novels, we have been fascinated all things Swedish!

[@RANSailing]

We were pretty close to Ystad in this episode! 😊

[@UweBehrendt]

[@timmahaffey4895]

Half of me is 100% Swedish. I really enjoyed the tour of Sweden, the weather and landscape is similar in many ways to Wisconsin and Minnesota. I look forward to RAN sailing again. As always, thank you!

Really great to see a little more of some Swedish history and really great photography as always! Thanks you!

[@LoriG75]

The tour of your beautiful homeland was amazing. You have a delightful country, from the ferocious winter sea to the gentle and beautiful landscape. I love history so I think that was my favorite part and I was amazed how you can just walk up to the ancient artifacts and explore and enjoy. The snow adventures were fun to watch as you all enjoyed each other’s company. Thanks for sharing and continued fair winds wherever you go.

[@maiconbezerra01]

amazing everthing

[@SkylinersYeti]

so many great places to visit and a life time is just not long enough to visit them all, Thank you for sharing.

[@HopeOfJoe]

[@shirleybaker-jones9191]

Great visit to Sweden and the history of the Vikings.... You are very blessed to have a man that is knowledgeable with his mechanics and hands. Y'all make a perfect match for one another. See you on your next video.

[@stevenskinner8532]

Thanks for sharing some of your home country.

[@adam8642]

So by definition you are víkingr. Awesome.

[@marcusornroth6388]

Thanks for the commercial video for the southern parts of Sweden!

[@davehoover8853]

Thanks for sharing a bit about your homeland. I lived in Seattle for many years and always kept a boat. Nice to see.

[@dharleyfan1]

What Beautiful scenery, you guys make even a very cold place, look and feel warm and inviting. You have such a good eye for capturing very visually pleasing moments, it's an art really, and you are both artists, very nice work, like usual.

[@andrewruble7706]

Thanks for the tour of your homeland. While I enjoy your sailing videos and seeing all the beautiful places you go, It was nice to see your tour of the Swedish countryside. What a beautiful place. Hope we can visit someday. Happy and safe sailing,

[@gaflaview6476]

Thanks for a glimpse of Swedish history, glad you had a good trip home.

[@somadevo]

You have a good eye for photography...in each episode the photography is special

[@pkane5472]

Completely agree!

[@Greggspies]

Hard to comprehend we are just a snap shot in history, Europe gives some amazing facts to our past and where we came from. Would love a time machine

[@RANSailing]

Yes, it's a bit mind boggling for sure... :-)

[@tkpaulsen1]

Most excellent, love the historical stuff like your Dad. I'm told my people are from Denmark so always interested in that part of the world. You guys never disappoint and look forward to the engine overhaul. Please keep 'em coming.

[@MikeSantis]

Tom they have departed from Copenhagen airport if you have noticed that.

[@joakimlemstrom53]

Skåne, the southern part of sweden, was actually part of Denmark back in the days.

[@Re5ist_ance]

You have a beautiful country. Looking forward to boat work video next week - I enjoy those a lot. Keep up the good videos guys :)

[@alanlovesmusic6442]

We have always been been big history fans. Thank you for showing some sight seeing areas of your country.

[@patrickjamescollins5323]

Magnificent!

[@RANSailing]

Thanks Patrick!

[@ryanh4889]

Great historic tour of Southern Sweden and I am looking forward to the engine refresh videos! I live in Friday Harbor and see that you were anchored in Roche Harbor today. If you are still here tomorrow it would be great to meet you 2! I will be around Roche all day working on my boat on the guest dock. Ryan

[@rchopp]

Thanks for the tour of your homeland, I really enjoy your videos.

[@rayrayy5444]

Two thumbs up…..Thanks for taking us along on your travels and meeting your family. Great video….Cheers from Canada

[@RANSailing]

Thanks Ray! :-) Have a great weekend!

[@Mumbo_Jumbo_Kiwi.1]

7:55 the sides to the entrance to the main chamber appears more sophisticated than it's immediate surroundings , polygonal perhaps!?

[@suzanneouimet6977]

And series on t.v. Got us started

[@okayfine298]

It’s always good to be back home whether in your home country or on the boat

[@RANSailing]

True!

[@rw5092]

[@dreamvideotelevision4540]

Great video! Looks soooooo cold and windy on the beach! The chop on the water is very powerful. Very interesting to see you come from such an old civilization of explorers and sailors! Fun to watch. The Volvo engine rebuild will be interesting to see. Thanks so much!

[@TheHillpeter]

My family is from the old Finland. The Winter War with Russian displaced a lot of Finn's at that time. I love the picture. I'm looking forward to returning to find more of my family History and visit Nordic countries.

[@keithcope8113]

Thank you for the video of sweden ive never been there vut found its history and the viking stories quite interesting

[@sphinx2k210]

Drone footage and stabilization during high winds is very impressive, nice work.

[@GTAGGARTIST]

Again good history lesson especially from your home country. So many thousands of years there. Long enough for changes in climate! Not so much here. However I had to put on a neck scarf just to watch you in the cold North wind. =:-)

[@tsamson2606]

Nice video. Love the history. It was a little scary seeing your brother head towards that tree while on the sled. Fair Winds

[@419thmilitia]

That was a great history lesson. I wish yall could do one like this in your language from over there and we could see what its really like. KZbin does pretty good with sub titles. Thank you for the work you all put into making these videos.

[@rickczainski9856]

Very nice video of home. I must say, Sweden looks very much like Canada. Looking forward to seeing the upcoming engine work.
