Sailing across the Atlantic Pt. 2 - Ep. 35 RAN Sailing

[@chrisdoris1]

I've been binge watching your videos with more enthusiasm than any Netflix series I've ever binged! I'm impressed with your skills at sailing, planning, and video editing. The most chill couple I've even seen!

[@snowdingo7283]

You two are such a lovely couple you seem to compliment each other .

[@RANSailing]

Thank you so much Shane :)

[@svbacchus4949]

A great crossing, a memory for life! Good job crew!

[@RANSailing]

It definitely is :) Thanks!

[@krisqk4589]

I don't know how I came across RAN Sailing, but I've been binge watching it. Looking forward to finding someone to sail across an ocean with.

[@krisqk4589]

Wow, so many likes for my not-so-worthy comment! Give me 9 months and I will be in the Mediterranean Sea, sailing toward Greenland!

[@chrisdowning9626]

Such joy, such contentment and such growing confidence without a gram of arrogance. You are truly marvellous and compelling. It's such a shame the same technology didn't exist when we did our big adventure. X

[@katejackson524]

That was just the best episode out of all the hundreds of episodes of regular sailing vlogs I watch. That was the absolute best. Thank you!

[@richardjones7984]

I like the chilled out way you accomplished the crossing. The details on the long passage are fascinating and give a real idea of the variation of experience in such a voyage.

[@drdoody]

The boat is beautiful and the boat work is interesting but seeing these two together is the real joy.

[@inixio11]

The big hug at the end got me very emotional. I guess I am getting old. Thanks.

[@RANSailing]

It was a quite emotional moment :)

[@davidmedlyn7401]

Jeez, you blokes are great. Here I can sit in my cabin house in Avalon Beach in Sydney Australia on a balmy night and yet enjoy your remarkable crossing of the northern Pacific without the lightening and the swells. You're a cool couple. Thanks for enriching our lives.

[@grantevans9431]

I have watched all the videos, from the start and have enjoyed them very much. Such a touching moment at the end of this video when Malin and Johan spontaneously hug and kiss - they are a lovely couple. Thank you and blessings for the new year and your continued journey. Fondly - Grant

[@RANSailing]

Thank you so much Grant. We're glad you liked it. It was an emotional moment making landfall after so many days at sea. Happy new year and all the best to you!

[@HopeOfJoe]

Y.O.U. M.A.D.E. I.T. !! There was never any doubt in my mind. One of the things I have learned from going back to the beginning of your series is that Johan is an amazing Captain! And that you, Malin are the best First Mate!!

[@TheJttv]

I love the hand plotting, not only is it cool but its always good to keep those skills handy encase your plotter fails.

[@RANSailing]

It's great to do it, especially during longer passages!

[@MrPaulcm1]

Wow, that was a beautiful sunrise. Great vlog, thank you for sharing. :)

[@atir4u]

When you two were laying on your deck, and setting foot on Grenada, so sweet 💕

[@haroldgjr]

When we see the storms,sunrises and sunsets, I marvel at how close you must feel to nature and it's majesty. Enjoy!

[@petermathewvanaardt74]

Great vid! Luv u guys. God bless you and your beautiful relationship

[@RANSailing]

Thank you so much Mathew!

[@vikz5786]

Brilliant! Love watching your guys' journey. In this digital age watching Johan plotting progress on a paper map with a pen is really cool.

[@MrSharkphoto]

Congrats on the passage. You make it look easy, and I really enjoyed the views of the ocean and waves.

[@dunnmcdee2302]

Started at episode 75 to 90 something then decided to go back to start from 1. What a amazing journey.

[@AdventuresofanoldSeadog]

Brilliant guys, well done.

[@lcdemack]

Congrats you two on a good and successful, uneventful Atlantic passage and welcome to the new world. Much love. 😁🎉💐💚☀️

[@rockyseasplainsailing8007]

Hi Guys, I have enjoyed this video more than any other sailing vlog I've watched. You are a lovely couple, so balanced, thoughtful and happy. I'm looking forward to hooking up with your channel now. Big love! RIck from Kent UK.

[@benc65753]

Enjoyed this video immensely. It brought back memories of the past for me. It doesn't matter which century you sailed in, or decade for that matter, all sailors seem to think the same. You anticipate savoring the very last of the fresh food before living out of cans or packages. You get channel fever anticipating what you're going to do the first day or night in port, and you start thinking of what that first meal will be, etc. Planning on which repairs to do while in port before setting sail for some other adventure. Here's wishing you all the best for a great New Year.

[@luuk8165]

Very well done!👍👌

[@RANSailing]

Thanks! :)

[@tigervw007]

Great job guys I'm very happy for you

[@RANSailing]

Feels great to have accomplished our longest passage so far :)

[@billhewitt]

Great episode guys. Your video editing and composition is really improving. Welcome to North America.

[@dalegraham4058]

Ran- thanks for sharing the crossing. So authentic. Good preparation paid off. In the moment living changes people you know. It's a very Canadian state of mind! Getting connected by getting disconnected. Nice work Sweden.

[@bowlinggreenoil]

That was a trip down memory lane. I crossed in 1984 on a Bowman 47 yawl. 18 days from Hiero to Guadalope in Feb-March. Much as changed and much remains the same. Cheers!

[@franklinrice3361]

life is good live live live guys live

[@zennmomma2801]

Ahhhh!!! Such a cute arrival clip at the end. Love it you two 💕

[@davidc6510]

Great passage. Thanks for sharing!

[@Dan.Whiteford]

Congratulatios on a successful crossing

[@RANSailing]

Thanks a lot Dan!

[@SuperLaplander]

Very nice video. Been following you since the beginning. So proud of you both, congrats on the crossing! Best part was the huggin&kissing at the end of theis video, special thanks for sharing that!! Keep the love flowing and fair winds.

[@RANSailing]

Thanks a lot! We know you been follow us all the way :) Happy new year!

[@command7772]

A dream come true, congratulations on making the Atlantic crossing! I have followed you all the way from Sweden, what a great achievement! Can you please make comments on your gear, what worked well, such as the solar panel, alternator set-up, rigging and wind-wane?

[@RANSailing]

Thank you! :) Great that you have followed us the whole way! We are actually very pleased with all the gear, everything worked well during this passage. The towing generator was really great because we didn't have to run the engine to charge the batteries. Happy new year!

[@saltyduck9435]

great stuff you two....congratulations on crossing. I love the ending on dock....just you two celebrating your achievement....really touching!

[@RANSailing]

Thanks a lot! :)

[@thatdutchguy2882]

Great video again you guy's 👍. And I'm still impressed with that cockpit instruments panel Johan made,...it looks like it was made by the factory as part of the boat, so it doesn't look out of place 👍.

[@VictoriaWargaming]

Johan - best thing about the crossing FAIL - "The Company!"

[@robertburnett1970]

Wow great job I'm very happy for you guys!

[@RANSailing]

Thanks Robert :)

[@sjd9214]

Such a lovely video again. The feeling of crossing your first ocean has got to be one of the best feelings you can get. I don't know about you, but I constantly stare and marvel at how well a wind vane works. Wishing you both a brilliant 2017.

[@RANSailing]

It is a very nice feeling :) The wind vane impresses me too a lot! Such a simple but yet so complex thing.

[@stuartmcmichael5250]

Fantastic you guys you got to remember the work and preparation you both did prior to your crossing, which made the 3 weeks seem like you were doing nothing, awesome .... I love the loving hugs on the jetty at the end of the video.... Congratulations on your crossing of the Atlantic together. I’m so happy for you both⛵️❤️

[@SirHackaL0t.]

An amazing trip.

[@RANSailing]

It sure was! Thanks for watching!

[@Art790631]

That was a great episode. It's like a breath of fresh air. Stay safe out there.

[@RANSailing]

Glad you liked it! Take care and Happy New Year

[@Art790631]

The same to both of you. Keep enjoying life out there.

[@pnwesty7174]

I was gonna say the chat with you guys on the deck talking about the passage was my favorite part, until the big hug at the end on the dock. Awesome. Hope the meal when you landed was good, and you guys have a safe and adventurous 2017.

[@RANSailing]

Thanks! We had a lovely meal and walk :) Happy New Year!

[@mobiltec]

A dream come true... Congratulations to the both of you....

[@RANSailing]

Definitely! Thank you :)

[@franklinrice3361]

LOVE IS LIVIG UNDER THE SAIL. THAN Y,ALL FOR SHARING . WE LOVE YOU GUYS

[@RANSailing]

:) :) :)

[@ernstjoseffelbinger2825]

Hallo Malin & Johan, Thanks for all your Videos. Best Wishes and have a very nice, good year!

[@ronschwolsky1626]

Best part.... the ending. Congrats on a fantastic experience!

[@carbidegrd1]

Best new word....'Lightnings '

[@pinehillk9]

HOW AMAZING IS THIS!!! Congratulations you two! Such an amazing couple, I was so excited for you, watching this!

[@RANSailing]

Thank you Tony! :) We're so happy to be here and to have sailed across the big ocean together. Happy holidays!

[@robfraley4210]

I like the Total of All the things you did and used on the trip when it ended... Cool 😎 👍✅

[@pauloake6107]

I would to be where you guys are, keep going cheers 😊

[@01Pospa]

Congratulations... Happy New Year and many more miles to sail :)

[@qristv1912]

i like you guys positive attitude. glad u arrived in the daytime

[@thejourneyofmalu3495]

I only found your Your Tube channel a week ago and liked its so much that I watched ever episode in just 6 days. We will be following a similar route as you when we pick up our new boat (August Moon) next January in Bordeaux, France. Can't wait! Keep up the good work. Excellent video quality and very well done. Be safe.

[@billyarseface]

Congrats. You just got a new Patron.

[@RANSailing]

Wow thanks a lot! Welcome to the crew :)

[@whitestar3]

Congratulations!!!!!! Good on ya mates

[@moejaime2654]

Thumbs up guys ; fair winds and full sails !

[@arthurpryor773]

so glad you made it....always enjoy your videos....thanks..

[@far-flung8356]

Yes, I think my favorite video yet. Great job.

[@jonathank5289]

God Jul och Gott Nytt År! As always a great video produced by you two! Was hoping to see some fish being caught. Enjoy the luxury cruising over the holidays and I hope Malin heals up quickly and doesn't suffer any long lasting discomfort! I broke my big toe a few years ago mountain biking and it wasn't fun.

[@RANSailing]

Tack Jonathan! We had to sacrifice the fishing for the towing generator to give us electricity during this passage. I also hope my toe heals fast so I can start to walk again. Happy new year! /Malin

[@jonathank5289]

I kind of figured that was the case regarding the towing generator. It wouldn't be fun to get a couple yards of fishing line tangled in it. Being a fisherman I see it as a giant teaser that is attracting fish to the boat.

[@davidgriffith1513]

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!

[@RANSailing]

Glad you liked it! :)

[@kenpole3058]

Tack sa mycket (only thing I recall from a visit to Stockholm 30 years ago) and best wishes going forward.

[@RANSailing]

Tack för att du tittade! You have to translate that I guess :)

[@marclonte3059]

Kia Ora Guy's, congrats on your Atlantic crossing. I still can remember the first time I did it on my own in 2009. Now I'm in the Seychelles spending Christmas and New Year. I wish you happy sailing and favourite winds on the other side.Take care and greetings from the Aotearoa 1

[@RANSailing]

Thank you Marc! It feels great to be here. Hope you're having a great holiday in the Seychelles. Enjoy and take care! Malin and Johan

[@acedono]

That was a brilliant video guys, they just keep getting better and better.

[@arekkaniewski4442]

It's funny that after a passage it always seems like an evening landfall. Go figure. Great series from you two.

[@jamesedwards1588]

Welcome to the Americas. Thanks for sharing.

[@BegToDiffah]

Congratulations and happy holidays! I love all your vids but this one the best!!

[@seanhaugen2437]

My favourite episode yet. Loved the ending. Congratulations on the crossing.

[@KM2399]

A Big well done guy's. 👍⛵☺

[@murrat]

Congratulations to you both on the Atlantic crossing. Great channel by the way. You two make a great sailing couple and it is obvious you two know what you are doing.

[@janereynolds7555]

Well done! Lovely to see you achieve this together. Bravo. Love your channel.❤️

[@cdnadventurer6028]

Fantastic videos and what an adventure!!! A couple of days ago sitting in cold Canada, very near where our local Swedish hockey hero, Daniel Alfredsson, currently is in Ottawa, I found your videos. I've now watched them all and all were awesome!! Great filming, video (love the drone footage) and narration. Well done, you should be very proud of all you've accomplished. I'll be watching for more videos to come! Happy New Year!

[@RealFrankyDog]

Nice update!

[@RANSailing]

Thanks Tim!

[@johnhamer7157]

Another great episode guys. Congrats on a successful crossing and best of luck in the New Year!

[@kevinbwillson4161]

Thatsa some smooth sailing you two do I hope it always will be Thanks for all the wonderful adventures Love

[@Davebbell1]

You seem so happy and relaxed

[@moz1953]

soulful and uplifting guys, happiness for you in 2017, best, moz

[@RANSailing]

Thank you Moz, happy new year!

[@scoobydo6454]

Great film folks, a wonderful achievement too! Loved the bit where you stepped ashore....

[@andremsn]

Great episode!!! I am enjoying so much! Best regards from Natal (Brazil).

[@RealLuckless]

Congrats on your transit. Something that I think would make some great content for your channel is going into detail on your navigation and chart plotting. Seems like details such that that always tend to interest viewers who aren't often around boats. You've hinted at your plotting and navigation, but so far it has mostly felt kind of glossed over. (Unless I missed a part of a video somewhere.) Keep up the awesome content. Wonderfully relaxing to see while I'm sitting up here in a Canadian winter.

[@oceandrew]

Funny you mention details that would interest you. I was wondering about the workings of the windvane... which points of sail it can handle and how much effort it takes to adjust it when the wind shifts to stay on course.

[@RealLuckless]

Lots of interesting gear on a boat to go into more detail on.

[@RANSailing]

Thanks for great feedback! I think it's a great idea. We'll think about it for future videos. Thanks for watching and commenting! Take care! /Johan

[@Leomurguia]

Congratulations, beautiful scene at pier dock, Merry Christmas

[@RANSailing]

Thank you! :) Merry Christmas!

[@pualanidante3750]

When you said he is looking like a viking! Thats what I always say when I watch your videos. He is soooo Viking. Love the videos, please have a very Happy New Year. Love U Guys. Aloha, Pualani

Awesome video guys. One day we will be out there living the dream and I hope we can make it as fun as you guys make it look. Even on the bad weather days you still rock it. Keep it up.

Impressive, Malin: editing down below in a swell - I sometimes get dizzy editing on dry land, when I go without a break for too long! You are a true mariner now - congratulations! Happy New Year to you both!
