[@AlluringArctic]

Thanks for watching and now for a short advertisement: I've prepared a new limited-edition print run available at art.alluringarctic.com . These prints are only going to be sold until the end of August. Starting from $99, shipping worldwide, and with free shipping if you order 2 or more prints. These are really high-quality prints with the ink printed directly onto the aluminum panel! They look amazing, super happy about how they turned out! The print sales are actually a kind of a kickoff for our Northwest Passage project. After the end of August we should hopefully be busy dodging icebergs and polar bears in Greenland so I won't have the time to keep up with the webstore, and that's one of the reasons for doing just a limited-time run ;) Have a look at art.alluringarctic.com and I hope you find one you like!

[@woundedwhale786]

Are the prints waterproof as I would like to out one up in a bathroom?

[@sdcofer52]

I didn’t quite understand how Lumi was managing to stay upright. I know the full keel and skeg help but still she doesn’t go on to her side.

[@vblaas246]

Amazing work. I think panorama one was the favourite of your wife. Christmas indeed.

[@merjamannonen430]

No huh huh teidän kanssanne 😳 7.6. luki että tällä jo miljoona katselukertaa , wau ! Hyvä te, influensserit 👍😄 !

[@lc285]

Hey, Artic Sailing, havent had any updates lately. how are you two doing?

[@mildsauce5019]

The aesthetics of this video are sublime. Winter in that forest ? Beaching a boat in a really shallow inlet? Absolutely BEAUTIFUL

[@J.K.productionsDE]

At first I already thought: This is EPIC. Then, the drone shots came in Then, you went paddle boarding. Then, you went SKIING? What more can I ask for? It just kept on getting better!!

[@immanuellasker4273]

Then a bear showed up

[@robertgregory8936]

Agreed.

[@robertgregory8936]

The skiing made me happy. You really distinguished yourselves. You are Hardy, energetic northerners, reminding me of my parents from Denmark. They used to swim in freezing mountain rivers and ski like you. Thank you.

[@IanCrouse]

What a life. As a US Naval sailor, I've always wanted to return to the open sea but never had the chance. This cures my aches.

[@DisposableEgo]

You can call to the sea, but it may not sing back. It's okay, Shipmate...your feet were where they needed to be.

[@newtagwhodis4535]

Rest easy bro. This channel is really great, for sure! You may also enjoy the Sailing Frenchman, a solo, worldly sailor. Very cathartic. I fear the deep ocean now, but it is really nice to watch. I haven't felt that serenity of calm sea for a long time.

[@keeledover4218]

is possible you can crew with me i have a similar yacht

[@brianholmes849]

Stunning cinematography.

[@HayesHaugen]

He's really good. And that is a lot of work to get those shots

[@johnq.public2621]

It's great to see people with lifting centerboard/swing keels actually showing the capabilities of these vessels! 😄👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@zillyoldfart]

I still don't get why the boat does not swing to one side with so much slack on the ropes. Is the boat a dual-keel or ... ??

[@Fossillarson]

Right ! As kid in 80s I always see the big sails out water in winter. Lake superior always baffled me how the smaller ones could be in yards

[@craigwalker3541]

Love my 26' Balboa swing keel, can beach it, but sometimes have to pick rocks and sticks out.

[@wildwaters8348]

First video I've seen from this channel, haven’t got to the actual beaching yet and I was wondering "how are they gonna beach a boat with a keel?" Now I realize

[@TheOfficialTentoumushi]

i was wondering about the Keel, Ive had one sail boat and wanting another, ill definitely be checking these out.

[@srf2112]

I've faced enough life/death situations in the ocean to not really want to have anything to do with sailing and small boats but thank you for letting me live vicariously through this video.

[@IonOtter]

19:22 Those weren't bear tracks, those were wolverine tracks! Excellent find!

[@basilbrushbooshieboosh5302]

Damn you're in a beautiful spot. One of your most enjoyable episodes guys.

[@AlluringArctic]

Thank you! Yeah it was one of the nicest spots we've been to..

[@VictoriaPitt01]

The BEST Sailing channel, bar none. THE BEST.

[@michaelbartyzal1306]

Yes, I much prefer this to all the equator KZbin sailers.

[@miatamt]

There's a cpl other good ones there just not on the water ATM But I do agree ATM this is the best channel on the water ATM and they have a very relaxing channel and content

[@ElizabethMargerle]

I love it too, but I don’t have the guts to say that.

[@ajsmallz6167]

[@maxhartman8414]

“Its so nice to sit on a very sharp rock” seems like such a lovely Finish way to express joy. Lovely channel to stumble across, looking forward to the north west passage,

[@y0uRF4t3]

A beached boat during a snowstorm sounds like cozyness overload.

[@richardrichard508]

Just when one thought a vlog could not get any better this comes along...sublime. This is on so many levels very professional. The fantastic work on camera angles allowing the viewer to imagine they are there: at the same time telling a story without endless and repetitive narrative. Sohvi says so much by saying so little which is so refreshing to find on vlogs. Really the scenery is so spectacular and your drone shots of the vessel in such isolation are mesmerising. With such a high standard of filming just demonstrates why narrative and music are not only not required but an annoying distraction. Looking forward to the north west passage. Many thanks for you hard work in producing this. Sohvi’s favorite “Granite Cove"

[@philipwilkie3239]

Such a treat - fast becoming one of the handful of channels I really look forward to.

[@Celtic-Films]

As someone who has lived in the Yukon winter and sailed in British Columbia, as well as a Colorado Rockies skiers, what you two are doing is pretty amazing. Calculating the tides and marking it well. Smart and kind people to follow in this world. Thank you for this.

[@astronorthwet636]

I can’t imagine how strenuous it would be to climb from the waters edge to the top of a mountain in skis. I wouldn’t make it 100 meters! Very impressive that you two are able to physically do that!👏👏😊😊

[@jaytowne8016]

Those Suomi are tough people!

[@nskimharris]

how did she turn her skis into a snowboard is what I want to know

[@Pilotik85]

And me too)))

[@Captainhaddockthethird]

It called splitskis, so you can tour in them as skis and then join them together and snowboard down.

[@nskimharris]

@@Captainhaddockthethird Want! Thanks!

[@olgaciocca8213]

Sohvi's favorite should be the one with the window. It's different from your usual ones, and talks about a home, not only a boat. A home with very nice, always different views from its windows 🤩

[@MaryAustinup]

I used to eat saltine crackers with grape jelly when I was a kid. I had forgotten all about it until watching you and Sohvi eating crackers and jam.

[@peterwager6938]

I believe it’s the first picture, so crisp and reflective of what you are describing. Enjoying your videos

[@lkirkby3]

The two of you work together to do manouvers many sailors never try. Impressive

[@diane_24]

Aside from my interest in your homeland traditions, your ability to show off the remote locales is superb. Definitely the best channel for authenticity and relaxation. Thank you.

[@michaelbrownlee9497]

Sophies fav is where she enjoys being, nice and cozy in the boat looking out the window.

[@Erin-Thor]

Your wife is a trooper, exceptionally helpful! My wife would have looked at me over her cup of coffee and just glared at me… to mean “Me? Run holding lines? No.” LOL! 😂

[@kevnorth9812]

The purity of this channel makes my heart warm... Icebreakers indeed.

[@shanep5121]

I love when you speak your native language. You guys are the best. I tbink Sohvi picks the last one, with the sunlight from the right.

[@MikeBrown-dk7or]

I loved the paddle board and ski footage the best. Excellent video. A big thank you.

[@jasonncoxx5837]

I think Sohvi's favorite shot is the first one presented. The shot where you can clearly clearly see the bow lines and stern lines

[@suziederkins3310]

Love your content. I’ve seen so many vlogs of tropical island hopping but what you’re doing is so unique.

[@johnbivins]

Absolutely wonderful! I love the serenity of your adventures. We grew up in Alaska, and my brother was born in Anchorage. I still remember the sky, the blue ice, and the moose everywhere! Thank you for sharing and your prints are stunning, I believe the "Dreamy sailing" is her favorite.

[@johnwest7993]

My favorite channel. Thank you for your high quality, thoughtful videos. I think Sohvi likes the Glacial Moraine Paddle Boarding print best.

[@MateoAranzadi]

I think Sohvi's favourite picture IS the first one because is spectacular and you can see the boat so clearly

[@hillfarm7044]

I agree with you about the paddle boarding. I always thought it looked boring until I tried it and realized the as you did the view is better. I prefer it over kayaking for exploring calm waters. Also if you are in warmer water you can swim off of them which is my favorite part. I would say Sohvi's favorite is the view through the window. I think that is where her cosy spot is.

[@richbrooks9250]

This is a fantastic video showing a safety practice that most Boaters will never use in their lifetime, however when it is needed will prove invaluable to the few who utilize it. An excellent educational tool... and a reminder to reserve chocolate for those special moments! 😅

[@HayesHaugen]

The same snacks with your same person on another day in a new place is a beautiful life to live.

[@aaronr.9644]

Sohvi's favourite : the one looking out Lumi's window . I can picture Sohvi sipping on some hot chocolate while looking out of that window :)

[@donwp]

Yeah, but not American hot chocolate. :)

[@10knotsvt]

Sohvi's favorite: The aerial shot of Lumi front a distance with the fog and mountains. Capture's the essence of your adventure in Alaska. Thank you for all your great videos. Love your perspective and laid back jive!

[@endrefasong]

Love this, looks like you're having a great time. My wife and me had the same realization about SUP boards, we thought they were boring and lame but now it's our favorite way to explore the coast, and almost better in winter than in summer. Enjoy your travels!

[@baldymagoo]

Cheese and jam are awesome, Sohvi is "The Snack Bandit"

[@merilynkron8750]

The best cinematography of all the sailing channels

[@mariannewinkelman7255]

I think she likes the second big horizontal print with all the snow falling. Wow this was an amazing video. I was glued. Thank you for sharing your adventures, glad your subscribers are growing

[@mikemallery913]

I’m impressed hiking, climbing, skiing up a mountain. looked like a beautiful view from up there - and skiing down - wow

[@moblack5883]

Just randomly came across this channel and I'm blown away. I thought this guy is crazy to think he can put his boat there. Then I was surprised it worked and how it just stayed there. Impressive channel.

[@blegi1245]

Being able to do that is one of the reasons to own a french aluminium centerboard sailboat.

[@MountainMariner]

I worked in the Chukchi Sea with several icebreakers, one was the Fennica! Also the Nordica icebreaker. And a Swedish icebreaker Tor Viking which rescued a mariner and his cat from a sinking sailboat. I was on the Aiviq icebreaker.

[@waderogers]

Perfectly done. I imagine you have higher tides coming after the high tide you went in on. Such a secure feeling to know you can retract the daggerboard and beach the boat. Makes doing any bottom repairs in remote locations possible. Plus, you don't have to anchor a half mile out and do a long dinghy ride in questionable conditions to get to shore! I owned a 22' sailboat with a retractable keel and I loved it. If there was a sandy beach somewhere here around Juneau, Alaska, I've been on it. The boat was small enough, I could beach it on an incoming tide, tie a rope to the anchor, go to shore for lunch or to explore for a few hrs, then come back, pull the anchor and the boat to shore, and go somewhere else!

[@MrMurl]

The knowledge is remarkable. It is always so satisfying to watch someone who knows what their doing accomplish tasks which would baffle the rest of us. The thought to do this would never cross my mind, of course I’m not a sailer, but this is next level. Amazing!!!

[@gaylespencer6188]

I appreciate how much work went into setting up those shots, particularly the skiing ones.

[@tylert6887]

How was that shot even done?

[@mackbolan5126]

Hi Juho. I think Sohvi's favorite print is the "a look out of Lumi's window" . Good luck!

[@johnwehrle7206]

Fantastic adventure! My wife and I have been sailing together for 53 years. We wish you all the best! Thanks for the beautiful video.

[@loubonaparte5063]

I'm a newer subscriber... but I LOVE what you're doing here, and I find myself looking for your content.. that is how loyal followings happen!!! Very calming...I love it.

[@annelambert3029]

Sohvi's view out the lumi window. That's my favorite too.

[@stevelawrie9115]

Love you two kids, playing and imagining which ice breakers you are. 🙂

[@hackisack]

My guess is that Sohvi's favorite is the boat out in the bay „half frozen anchorage“ This was a fantastic video! Not sure how you do it, but you make the cold (and wet) somehow feel cozy.

[@crabapple1974]

Your little “fika” with coffee and a beautiful view looked so nice and as a Swede I approve :) Cheeze and marmalade is a good combo. Nice to follow along on your trips!

[@AngusJohnson-ei1kk]

This clip was really special.

[@sv_endless6340]

Sohvi's Fav: The Sun pic last one standing

[@rickhern15]

This was one of my favorite videos you have made. Nice job. I look forward to your journey on the NW Passage.

[@weinerdog137]

Truly an unique look at the Alaskan coast. Cool.

[@nicodenhertog]

Sohvi's favourite would be the one of your yacht tied up 16/9 format

[@ImTheDudeMan471]

Hot coffee for the Fin who doesn't like coffee. I guess bringing it was instinctually Fin, no?

[@MaShcode]

You’re jammin’. I once spent a stormy winter camp perched in a tented hammock. While the spot was in a protected swale the groan and cracks of the surrounding trees in the howling gale definitely made sleeping a challenge.

[@lewiskinser8320]

I can’t agree more, more helpful information than rest of sailing channels combined. I knew when y’all bought this vessel that beautiful things would happen as a result and not let us down yet. Thanks for being real with us

[@stevencohen4580]

Amazing video's thanks for sharing.

[@Valerian1Ardelean]

Sohvi's favourite : the one looking out Lumi's window

[@elwhagen]

Amazing photos and cinematography! Real down to earth people living a real adventure!

[@Belle501]

Looking out from the window is her fav. Such gorgeous scenes. I love them all!

[@jesmarina]

Great video. I must say, I think you are the drone-shot master of YT. Of course the scenery helps, but still - they are truly beautiful. The BBC couldn't have done it better.

[@pnuttheclownh2254]

Watching "LIVE" from Quakertown, Pennsylvania, USA, and aspiring to be the "VIEWER OF THE EVENT"!

[@distrachan2671]

Takes lots of skills to create and star in this vid. More than enjoying yourselves. Thriviing on adventures and making it look easy. Not easy. Even down to the most effective knots to tie for each situation!

[@darrininverarity4297]

You two are awesome and very kind,thanks for sharing your adventure.

[@DiabloSpearguns]

Spectacular 🤙

[@Blogger2020]

Eiköhän Sohville mene tuo ikkunanäkymä merelle😊Terveiset Rovaniemeltä, näiden videoiden laatu eiku vain paranee, upeita😊

[@AlluringArctic]

kiitos paljon! terveisiä Suomeen!

[@donkraus1991]

Cool, grounded and more fun cranking turns with silence!

[@robertdoyle8972]

Wow, what beautiful views even though I’ve been living in Alaska for over 30 years, I never get tired of seeing all the parts of Alaska and someone who loves to do photography myself. It’s such amazing place to do photography at.

[@gwenniemay2304]

So happy I found you guys. I know nothing about sailing- never been on a sail boat and really don’t like cold weather but I absolutely love what you do. I get so excited when you put up a new video. Thank you so much and much love to you both from outback Australia 🌸✨🌸✨

[@timothywaterworth8649]

Her sitting by the window shot. Are view looking out together. Both dreams held together in one beautiful picture.

[@laska907]

I watch a lot of KZbin and I have for over a decade now. This is one of the most beautifully shot/narrated videos I have ever seen. Without a doubt one of the top 5. Also, I’ve literally never bought anything off of a KZbin channel, but those aluminum prints are gorgeous!! Honestly the first time I actually thought to myself wow I would totally buy one (or 2 😜) of those! Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey with the world!

[@fredread9216]

You guys are just absolutely in your element. I love it. This is all so foreign to me being a tropical sailor/cruiser. Can’t wait for your NW adventure.

[@robertclark504]

Sohvi's favourite is all of them. Best favourite is the shot over the top which show her 4 things she loves snow, boat, snacks and you. Thank you and many blessings safe sailing

[@MaBlake]

He is such a confident sailor/captain! Videos are always beautiful and you make difficult situations looks very easy. I love all your videos

[@colleenbalch328]

Thanks for another wonderful view into your Alaskan adventures!

[@einarquay]

Many of us here watching are living vicariously through your videos. We hear the sounds, see the images, but miss the tastes and smells..the whole experience. Seaweed, coffee, crackers and jam, and for me, imagining the heat coming off a cabin heater is the what I miss most. Cold and heat.

[@scdrescher1]

I never would’ve even considered doing this. What a true master. I have so much to learn.

[@handroids1981]

Another a scenic video, thank you both very much.

[@SneakyCheeseThief]

It’s always a beautiful thing to witness a unique ‘love language” in action! “Finnish Ice-Breaker as Spirit Animal” is definitely a new one in my book. You two make a wonderful pair!

[@johnandrews3568]

Love the ice paddle boarding. My wife and I often kayak in winter and do some icebreaking. So much fun and some bizarre ice noises. Great vid.

[@davidc6510]

Another great video Juho. The scenery and drone footage was amazing as usual. Thanks for sharing!

[@stephaniestearns2493]

Sohvi's Favorite I think is #1 the boat with ties from the shore. So beautifully you are making your moments memories for all of us. Thank you!

[@Charlie-ht2bf]

Love the skiing! I have the ripstick tour skis as well, they’re fantastic. Very agile for a long ski.

[@ElizabethMargerle]

Sohvi’s favorite is the one that you’re beached with the beautiful snow dusting on the trees. I must make a confession though, as much as I like all of them that particular one is my favorite.😊

[@aeastman59]

We think Sohvis favorite is the view from Lumis window. Thanks for the video today!

[@lilabarreto5361]

Sohvi's favourite must be the second picture, a sublime eagleye view through a lens of snow. You have a very unique way of being and living the experience. Thank you for letting us in.

[@peterwinchester7796]

I think the window view print is her favourite. I think it is beautiful and would brighten up my windowless workspace x

[@srf2112]

What an adventure to live in. The filmwork is done very well. Thanks for sharing this.

[@brianfields4479]

Absolutely incredible video, and great to see what our planet can offer to those like yourselves who have a free heart. Cheers from nz.

[@saltydog42]

Terve Saksasta. Minä rakastan videoitasi. And I think, Sohvi loves the view from inside the boat through the window. Your content is so relaxing, real, down to earth. And very finnish, I love both your mood. Thanks for sharing your experience with us ❤

[@christianmittasch8972]

I did not known that the tide difference is that big. Thank you for teaching.

[@scbp71]

That 1st print is absolutely stunning

[@Dennis-Hare]

I think Sohvi's favorite is the one looking out the port. She spends much time there doing her research and such. Either way, good luck to you both.

[@sixtenjohansson4246]

Wow! This was the coolest video I've seen for a very long time. ❤ Kiitos.😊

[@paulmadden4090]

Great photography, and I always love the skiing excursions. I have one of your Prince William sound pictures on my office wall, and am very pleased. It is a beautiful backdrop. Keep the good videos coming guys.
