[@RANSailing]

Such a good feeling to have finished the big lamination jobs! Thank you guys so much for watching and commenting 😊

[@wilfwilliams]

Johans’s day off jackhammer and concrete, the man’s a machine!!

[@johanswede8200]

Nah...he is just another Swede

[@jorgeconcheyro]

50 years from now, somebody is going to say, my grandparents build this boat on a shed by hand... wow . What a work guys!!!

[@PAINFOOL13]

The attention to detail and how meticulous you both are in building this Ran is overwhelming to me. Much respect, guys . Thanks so much for letting so many come along on this wonderful journey. 👏👏👏👍🏻

[@fredrikbergman9455]

Tanks for another great episode. I am equally impressed with your building skills as your efforts to create high quality videos. Different angles of views, different themes of music every week. I genuinely think you have a perfect blueprint in the art of making KZbin videos. Tack!

[@nooneanybodyknows7912]

Framing the staggered tractors in the field with your sunflowers. Brilliant filming 🌻 Congratulations on completing another backbreaking stage of the build. 👏 I love the roofing tiles. Johan 💪 Taking time to go for a swin with Vera and look for fossils is so wonderful. ❤ Thank you for sharing.

[@oscarw9889]

Nice work! Remember that there is no such thing as overbuilding, certainly not in key areas of the hull! Keep on going!!

[@martijnvandervlies7074]

Again very nice to watch, with nice music as well. Thanks!

[@amham48]

The choice of music is always appropriate and unique unlike any other channel.

[@TheThreebucks]

Gorgeous time lapse, Malin! Like an amazing surprise gift in the middle of the video! 🤩🥰

[@bryansmith1920]

Thank you so much for that End shot of the Sun Flower, Next to a Cultivated Crimson Rose, My most favorite of Flowers, I a Brit living in the NW of East Anglia, I have messed about with Plants and flowers in pots and growbags, over my lifetime, I am currently trying to Nurture a young Grapevine, It's a Learning curve for my home farmers head, But the Engineer in me, Is mesmerised by the boats construction process, Thank you again for sharing,

[@johnbaxter8569]

My favourite flowers (Sunflowers) looking really colourful. I think you have a lovely farmhouse in a beautiful rural location. The work on the boat looks to be coming along nicely. Well done, the three of you in all your endeavours...

[@BrassLock]

Goodness Gracious, so much work done!

[@ThomasEJensen_TEJ]

The Du du du du Machine. Loool! Malin You are priceless. 😂😂

[@frankd2301]

You have really made that farm into a beautiful home.

[@davidnichols147]

Love the "Time Lapse sky" Malin, not sure of the back cracking at the end of your glassing day. Taking a break from the boat build, Johan jackhammers the concrete steps. The man is amazing! The cinematography is off the charts combined with a perfect sound track, makes for another episode we shall not forget. The farmhouse tile is perfect, just perfect. Thank you all three for making my week complete.

[@stevenr8606]

👍🏻❤ without SMELL-O-VISION your upload is always 🎉 enjoyable 🌻 😊

[@c.a.mcneil7599]

Nice to see the keel laminate down. What a way to end that with hammering out stairs. That’s never an easy job specially in an older build.

[@louissparks2496]

Those roof tiles are beauties.

[@michaelwilliams5234]

Definitely, I was thinking the same. Wonderful aesthetic to match its history!

[@druid201]

Thanks as always guys! Hope you're all well. The camera angle or lens at 3:50! The hull looks massive. It's hard to gauge the size of this beast watching on a laptop. 😃

[@brucerazor5202]

I love your lifestyle, the word of the day is “envy” Blessings

[@claremaccarthy7308]

Kudos fra utöver i Skovshoved. Tell Vera that her tree house is great. (You’ve inspired us to build one for our grandkids!)

[@GVandeBovenkamp]

Whooooooooiuuuuuuu you all deserve so much respect, what a dedication what a team / fam …… you are being an inspiration for many and keep it up it is something very special you are doing . Greetings from the Netherlands

[@hansgorcumvan5390]

So much hard work done. And still going strong. Quite amazing how manage to keep going.

[@MarcelEling]

Beautiful rooftile🎉

[@freedomrider30]

Your bottom is going to be the apitamy of a TRUE "Blue Water" boat!!! Gezzzz!!! A+ guys!!!👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎

[@boomerangfishact6754]

Weekend is here!

[@michaelvanwinkle7919]

Good to hear about the keel grid you will be laminating into the inside of the hull.

[@colleynberesford4382]

you chaps never stop !!!

[@rudiarnstein5056]

Nice presentation with a great choice of music.

[@donb4386]

About fifteen years ago I bought a house in an agriculture and ranching area of Alberta. The very day I took possession of the house there was a very rich odour of manure. Needless to say this took me by surprise. I asked my neighbour what was that smell. His reply was west wind, feedlot, north wind meat packing plant. He went on to say, It’s the smell of money. ;-). As I’m sure it will be at your home the odour at mine was seasonal and I learned to accept it as the smell of money.

[@bensouthwell1339]

Fiberglass, Fiberglass, Fiberglass, you both must dream about the stuff!!!

[@DAVIDMILLER-nc9vo]

I have noticed the nice big doors that you must have built for the boat shed. If you have video footage of that build, I am sure that many people on this channel would appreciate seeing them built! Your videos are appreciated for more than just the boat; I love the picnics, garden, fields, wildlife, and tree house. Thanks for limiting the music; natures sounds and lack of it and the sounds of working tools and machinery could not be better, so thanks.

[@еленадемина-е8ч]

Молодцы, продолжайте. Всегда приятно смотреть ваши видео.

[@flightplan1000]

Both of you have a wonderful work ethic!

[@_blento_2637]

Thumbs up before even watching the video - one of the rear feat for me on youtube. Just cant get past the separate entrance door for guests. Scandinavians have been know as hospital folks as long as one looks at its own business. It is a Quite opposite from where I am originally from - Balkans where guest(s) were treated as family at any time. Nowadays living in USA (south) and the lifestyle is somewhere in between. Love this channel and can’t wait to see new episode.

[@imar758]

You are doing very well.

[@geekdomo]

love the sky timelapse

[@triplem2345]

😂 Oh man, when I saw that blue color in the concrete of the stairs, I immediatly felt sorry for you

[@brianpottinger1263]

You both work so hard and such good quality

[@souzajoaquim1]

Man, you are a warrior. Great JOB.

[@dianaperkins1910]

You two are totally amazing!!!!

[@juliedouglas2888]

Great job guys, good luck in the future.

[@ronaldwarren5220]

It is exciting to see the progress

[@nick.caffrey]

MITADPNHPI to you too, Vera! 👋

[@hoodoovoodooyoodoo]

Yay!

[@kerrymettert8962]

Incredible work once again! 💪💪

[@geraldtribbe6363]

Upcoming grid work will be interesting. Looks like the designer built her like a tank. Reassuring on a cold night in high seas.

[@benrusi2289]

I still think that a nice SAUNA after day like that would be great with a cool beer, eh?

[@barrypierce9100]

Great job guys.😊

[@markchodroff250]

You guys have so much work ! Thank God your young and strong, LOL the boats looks great

[@fastfreddy]

Excellent content and as always great preparation . Keep up the fantastic work !

[@dorianzittle7710]

Glad you were able to find a very pretty place to build your new home!. It it's going to be a very big boat. I know you will be happy with it.😊 Ps. Roof is looking great

[@Abeynmrl]

Enjoyed the video. Make it a great week! With love from Seattle.

[@andrewjames7616]

Thankyou 👍

[@Tomm9y]

That's a solid piece of lamination, looking forward to see the keel grid. I like that the keel design is a longish section with the hull, I hope it is a genersous width too. It makes it so much tougher and therefore safer.

[@adamkay9897]

Well edited video. Some great scenes

[@cattaraugustonawanda4426]

You make such fast progress maybe ready to sail by spring 🙂 The one part of boat building I dread is sanding which never seems to end. Nice PAPR mask!

[@donpardo9093]

I get tired just watching them! Keep up the great work! Very cool.

[@3d-printingmaniac700]

love to see the vids! its about building the dream of life. keep on going!

[@erikjalefors9377]

that keel is gonna be bombproof =)

[@DVolvoguy777-x7o]

You guys. Got the same Volvo I had! Nice! Great progress on the hull! Stay safe!

[@05stones]

Sure, this guy Johann is a robot ! 😊😊😊

[@amarieshearer2591]

Thank you for sharing, look forward each week to seeing you. We’ve been busy here also, but take time to watch just don’t have time to comment

[@edwardmacintosh9476]

A big job to have being completed, you be very careful lifting those cement pieces. They are a back killer & it happens so quick you won't even know until it's too late. ( very hard to fix or recover from). Enjoy your vids always, and I must say you will have a beautiful boat when completed, tks .

[@5fingers1]

good video 👍

[@billhollinshead]

To more easily find fossils in slate or shale, consider getting a bricklayer’s/mason’s rock hammer, which has a chisel instead of a claw. Find a pile of slate or shale, and use the hammer’s chisel to split the slate or shale into thinner layers. Then inspect the two fresh faces for a fossil😀

[@NatTate-f7e]

Nice music.

[@LoseYourself001]

It would have been even nicer to use the 2nd entrance to build a closed garden area where you can have a dining table or coffee area with some really nice plants and all walls made of glass, so that it's like being in the garden, except for the thing that you can stay there even when it's raining or windy and that you can control its climate as its a closed space. Not sure what the 2nd entrance led to on the inside of the house though, so you guys probably have your reasons to want to close it

[@trevhedges]

1:10 what an amazing place that is.. love it!

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

We had that temp drop ... then it bouced back up again for two days.. 😂 The great smell of the countryside ... Lol. .. buy an old farm and thats what you get. Just avoid when the farmers crop spraying if the winds blowing towards your place.🧙🏻‍♂️👍🏻 Mind your knees and backs... both get slow to heal especially in the colder weather.

[@thomasstorrs6345]

The camera makes the hull look like it is 100 feet long. LOL.

[@paulkube3901]

Best be real cold! 18 lams at 1"+/- using 40 some-litersof resin? Gonna get a mite warm 😮

[@DirkDiggler-qp3vm]

You probably covered this and I missed it by why use Expensive Epoxy instead of Vinyl Ester?

[@trevhedges]

Thanks guys!

[@ArcticSeaCamel]

Nice progress! Well planned is half done as they say. BTW, do you happen to be visiting METS trade on November?

[@RANSailing]

Yes we are! Would be cool to meet up if you go… 😊

[@knotwerken]

It's still a bolt on keel. right? Can't wait to see the keel and attachment

[@bertplank9892]

Brrrr...an approaching Svedish Winter......that seem to drag on forever.....it's bad enough in Britain!!.....

[@FRkiddo]

So you guys are building a boat and a house at the same time?! 🤯Next thing you are telling us that you have full time jobs as well?

[@simonrose7514]

Great work! I was wondering how you managed the heat build up from the epoxy doing so much at once? Was the ambient temperature low enough that it wasn’t an issue?

[@RANSailing]

Since we used a fast hardener the layers cured well before we had too much “wet” epoxy on top. Every layer took between 30-40 min to roll out, so 2-3 layers later that first layer was already solid. 😊 Cheers!

[@JeffBrookes-wy7xo]

Can you please explain how you decide what’s the next step? Are you following an architectural plan.? For example, how did you decide on how many layers of fibre glass for the keel section? I’m curious how you make these decisions. Great videos guys, I’m a big fan!

[@RANSailing]

We have a naval architect that has made the design together with us. For every step in the build we discuss the details with him. Cheers!

[@jimhermann5381]

I watch almost every week and love what you are doing it will be amassing I'm sure. So I have a question. Are you farming the land by day and boat building in evenings and weekends??

[@RANSailing]

Thank you so much! The fields around us used to belong to the farm but it was subdivided about 10 years ago. Our lot is on 5500 m2.

[@terrybassett2.0]

Is there a reason you don’t put a long handle on the rollers? That might help with the back ache.

[@paraweir]

My goodness, the two of you work like TROJANS. Non stop...

[@solanlangballe]

11:32 New pet on farm? :-)

[@rotorgator]

Is this farm going to be your "home base" after your boat is finished?

[@davidcummings6299]

Will you regret not using the same core material in the hull better than the wood ?

[@TVCanT]

Do you own the farm and some else does all the farming work for you?

[@ralph_sloan2331]

I’ve watched almost all your episodes, but I don’t remember you discussing your plans for the stern.

[@RANSailing]

We’ll leave it out until most of the interior is done. It will make the work a lot easier not having to climb over every time. 😊 Thanks for watching!

[@aspees]

What cleaning product (orange/red jug) are you using? It was probably a good thing the temp dropped. (18) layers of biax soaked in West 105/205 would exotherm at normal room temp.

[@sailing_el_jaleo]

Great vid as always, stupid question, with an attached keel how does the bilge work?

[@tobiaslindblom2187]

Good old thinking -why use a five inch nail when I can use a ten inch one?

[@dougklettke8833]

🍾😊🍾

[@kennethpole2439]

Idle curiosity here: keel's aspect ratio, chord and draft?

[@curacao11]

😎

[@MA-cc9nv]

Grymt bra jobbat!! Vad heter taket ni får installerat? Vi är på jakt efter ett liknande.

[@RANSailing]

Tackar! 😊Taket är från Randers, RT821

[@lugnet_1]

Jisses…I feel I don't want to tell u about all problems I've had building an optimist dingy for my children

[@martinnugent4105]

Ahhh..... a left hander is juhan

[@frankd2301]

When you start sailing Ran III will you sell the farm?

[@RANSailing]

If we can afford it, we’ll try to keep it. 😊 Cheers!

[@briandale8386]

What’s that 1 1/4 inches of fiberglass . 18 layers

[@psblad2667]

🥰
