The Whale Almost Landed On Our Sailboat! - Ep. 164 RAN Sailing

[@larrimos]

I’ve never seen Johan so animated! I guess I would be excited as well seeing one of the most majestic inhabitants of our planet up close like that. Malin is such a great narrator. I find her voice very calming and serene.

[@Scruffers2011]

You two are the real deal, no gimmicks, no pix of women in bikini to attract views, no artificial drama....just two lovely people sailing around the world and sharing their adventures and experiences with others through high quality videos. Thanks so much for being the type of people the rest of us respect and would like to be friends with.

[@RenegadeADV]

Johan, you are normally a really chill dude, I think this is the most animated I have ever seen you! lol

[@TheTeknikFrik]

Don't worry about missing filming the whale breaching. Your reaction describes it better :)

[@edrosenberger6947]

I'm used to Johan being laid-back and when he excitedly yelled, it startled the heck out of me! From the looks of that splash, that whale had to be a large one. You sure captured those large swells at the end. This was another enjoyable video adventure....thank you both!!

[@davidnierzwick2775]

By far the most excited I have ever seen Johan😃😀

[@kathrynhaynes7068]

LOVE the sleeping sea lion, the whale, and the dolphins!!!

[@daveoverton2095]

Still being excited by the presence of whales and dolphins at sea is a wonderful thing. Some people are excited but we need more to help us save them. They are a fabulous part of our planet!

[@livingthedream669]

I loved watching Johan get excited about the breach. That was great!

[@andytremlett7511]

Yes, the calmest skipper on the high seas got very excited. All we heard was native tongue ! Very funny and I'm pretty sure a couple of expletives would have come out of me so perhaps editor had to make a decision ? Brilliant stuff.

[@yehudarex529]

you all probably dont care at all but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot my account password. I love any tricks you can offer me

[@loganarmando8204]

@Yehuda Rex Instablaster :)

[@yehudarex529]

@Logan Armando I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@timothysaddler8581]

Brilliant. And hearing Johann describe it in Swedish! Just wonderful.

[@michaelvanwinkle7919]

That whale breeching in the sunset was amazing.

[@billb.6109]

We loved this episode, and seeing Johan so excited. Thank you!

[@cathyt502]

Johan, as someone who has had 7 molars extracted to date, drinking before was not a good idea re: blood clotting and pain. However, my last 2, which I paid in cash (no dental insurance), I was charged $165 for each molar... and I'm in Chicago. I tried someone new in my neighborhood, Polish middle-aged female dentist, all state of the art equipment. I was given a mask, similar to a welders mask, tinted in red... which helps w/ visuals/splattering. But, both times I was told to use cooled tea bags ... hold them in place as you gently bite down... it helps w/ healing/clotting. Other than that, she said reg. pain meds and just rest if you can w/ a dark towel on your pillow. Not looking forward to the rest, as I need false teeth (don't want implants). Hope this helps and you heal fast.

[@orobiller1]

That was Awesome! That was the most excited I have ever seen Johan! Lol

[@thylacinenv]

Finally the calmest Mr Cool on the planet in a state of shock, Malin can you believe it?

[@perrysaperstein3773]

The law of attraction...a beautiful couple attracting the beauty of the ocean

[@christopherjones8168]

Thank you Johan and Malin. This was another amazing video.

[@chriskincaid2923]

Don't think I have ever seen you that excited about anything Johan! What an awesome thing to have seen that whale breech next to RAN - thank you for sharing that enthusiasm - much appreciated!

[@1robertmkelly]

That was a beautiful day at sea - great seeing all that sea life. Thanks

[@ocxb]

I always feel privileged when I’m accompanied by sea life

[@mosca3289]

Johan, your reaction to the whale was 👍🏻. I really envy you for that experience.

[@damonrondeau8416]

Your closing footage with the sun and the swell and the dolphins is exquisite and inspiring. Beautiful.

[@MJGruskin]

Thank goodness you have medical insurance! You paid about double what it costs on the West coast of FL for an extraction. Glad your better! Too bad the RUBY ROSE wasn’t nearby - he could have done the extractions for free! 😎👍🍺🌈

[@stephendinnes2568]

we dont remember the days we remember thr moments

[@HopeOfJoe]

Just a fabulous vlog !!!! Happy you got your teeth fixed. Could be a sad state of affairs at sea. A beautiful ending to the vlog with the gentle swell, sea life and sunset, yet no indication of poor Malin and her condition in the swell. Hope all is well with our girl. ✨💕🙂⛵️⚓️✨

[@rj7411]

Thank you for sharing that California coastal wonderland with us. All the best.

[@BB_Chaptsick]

Super video. The last few seconds of it with the rolling swells and dolphins was spectacular... Looks like Malin is feeling better. Safe travels.

[@woo4062]

Thank you for your wonderful videos - they never disappoint.

[@captainfatty6852]

We used to take our four girls there when they were young and they loved it. Brings back lots of great memories. Now we take the grandkids and hopefully the great grand kids god willing.

[@todaysrealhealth8153]

The sleeping seal was the cutest.

[@manuelcastro6737]

YOU WERE TRAVELING MY HOME STATE. I miss home. Now I live in the midwest of the US. Guess I will never see the ocean again. Thank you for the pictures.

[@MingetRacer]

So cool to see the whales! Hoping Malin is getting past the phase that’s making her seasick.

[@Mindy56743]

What a amazing sail!

[@belaboured]

Loved the last shot with the swell. So good to see all the life around out there!

[@jimanderson2518]

You could see the excitement in Johan's eyes .... that my friends was what made this video. Thanks for capturing the excitement. Cheer Fairwinds from the @captains.chair

[@christinepalola5148]

Wine at the dentist? Gonna ask mine about that! And the little seal drifting and sleeping, blowing bubbles ... cutest thing ever! Great shot of the swell at the end. I am just north of Point Conception, you are missing some beautiful CA along the central coast. Safe travels to the channel islands. My Dad turned me onto your channel and I’ve got a lot of catching up to do.

[@wombatdk]

Super glad you have insurance! And even happier that the pain is gone. :) Lovely video as always.

[@jeanettedawson5166]

Sat here crying watching this my brother passed away Wednesday and was such a big fan and got me into your videos and I love you both thank you so much Malin and Johan xx😢😢🙂

[@andypennybrown6848]

Wow! Exciting times!

[@inguzjc]

You probably figured out that you’re traveling the Humpback Highway. if ever directly downwind from a close blow it will be be something else you never forget, you’ll have the sights, sounds and then the smell. It’s a most wonderful stink!

[@Choppermurman]

The sheer joy and excitement in Johan’s voice during that magical , spiritual sundowner evening with the whale and dolphins- wow! Thanks for taking us along. I’m just going to cue it up again and watch again. Best to you both.

[@clionspaw5711]

Beautiful, whales 🐳 and a sunset! That might be the most expensive wine of your adventures😜 cheers!

[@minimalistinlife]

Bästa tandläkaren och vilken historia till barnen

[@mytube0969]

Wow. That is expensive dental work. I just had a tooth extraction in Canada for about $200 (without insurance). Yes, he should have given more wine! That's dental robbery! lol Glad that you had it done... It's no fun dealing with infected teeth. Be well.

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

Wow what a fun day on the water! I'm pretty envious over here!

[@frankd2301]

Those were some nice long pacific rollers. Doesn’t get much better than that.

[@tommyedodson2412]

Epic whale encounter. Don't think I've seen Johan so excited. Gonna have to talk to my dentist. Never been offered a glass of anything. Thank goodness for insurance.

[@dungagin7896]

insurance keeps the criminal classes in business...

[@colinboniface194]

I didn't know you ever could get excited... The viking came out in you... Nice to see. And yes I would have too...

[@jaymoore6190]

Ive traveled that route many times and it seems like every passage has a close encounter with humpbacks. Actually had one hit our keel under the water (we didnt even see the whale until we looked behind us and saw the whale surface and give us a stink eye). Glad that you had such a close encounter. They truly are magical animals.

[@staroceans8677]

Your videos are the best of all the sailing KZbin ventures. They're well paced, extremely professional, and makes one feel immersed in the experience. You are both so personable...I'd consider naming you International Goodwill Embassadors! Your new addition is going to be one lucky little sailor. Hope to meet you someday. Hydrogen peroxide gargles go along way in healing extractions and infections. Safe ⛵

[@MikeSantis]

Those are some big swells at the end of the video! How nice!

[@MrTodd76123]

That sunset is fabulous !

[@terrypen]

7:17 I don't think I've ever seen a $2000 bottle of wine! 😜

[@crismoore6811]

Yes yes yes...from S in Morning, from N in evening. I experienced it thousands of time

[@jeepjeff9131]

Fantastic! I lived in Santa Cruz back in 1982 and spent a lot of time at the boardwalk. I volunteered at the soup kitchen that was across the street from that old train bridge (and spent a few nights sleeping on the beach near it). I lived about a mile north of it one block off the beach. It is great to see how much the boardwalk has grown and brought back beautiful memories of fishing off the pier. Thanks for the memories and great video!

[@davehoover8853]

Think it must feel very good to get back out to sea - and what a day it was! Fantastic video.

[@gwensutheran1812]

That was Awesome Guys ....your Face was a picture when the whale breached near the boat Hahahaha .....safe trip Loving the Videos ! My son is looking to crew , he’s been watching Videos Of Barry Back to Back , now he’s watching yours too x

[@mm8ball]

Love to see the whales! I had to help a friend put up barriers to keep the sea lions off his boat there in that marina, back in 1974. They were really a nuisance, and sometimes quite destructive.

[@lrselk8066]

It was fun hearing the excitement in your voice. Nothing like seeing a whale for the first time, ours was in Long Beach Ca.

[@bayareablues2255]

Those were some good sized waves following you down the coast. The Santa Barbara surfers must have been very happy! ;-)

[@SailingArgo]

Great sailing, really makes us want to let go of the lines and just sail away. Great episode 👍

[@janhjorth965]

Fantastic to keep following your journey. Surely Malin will feel better after another few weeks into the pregnancy - I hope for her and you. All the best from Copenhagen....su

[@ldirk58601]

The look on your face Johan when the whale came by! That was priceless! The sleeping sea lion, so cute. I miss my home state and especially her ocean so much. Its been fun watching you travel there. I can't wait for the southern part as I will recognize and reminisce as you go. I collect empty bird nests and am always amazed at the things that are woven in them. Safe travels!

[@trevhedges]

Thanks again guys, another great episode.

[@BobbieGWhiz]

I payed $4000.00 for my daughter’s 4 wisdom teeth extractions here in Massachusetts, and no bottle of wine, so sounds like you got a pretty good deal! I grew up outside of San Francisco so it’s exciting to see your recent videos. Thanks.

[@ancientmariner7473]

STREWTH! After that bill, I'd have asked for the rest of the wine case!

[@lilid910]

Beautiful video especially the last part; most animated I have seen Johan lol. Malin looks like she's feeling better. Safe travels you three.

[@VentureWild]

Woah! That was intense! Loved it! ❤️

[@Gunnie1961]

Did the amusement park remind you of Gröna Lund? Glad you were able to take care of your achy tooth Johan and yes $2000 for an extraction is a lot, but also glad the insurance covered some of the cost. The seal must have been checking your hull out for buildup. Johan's excitement seeing the whale is great! Memories for a lifetime. Malin hope you are feeling much better and get to enjoy more of what our west coast has to offer.

[@gatemana5]

I really appreciate how you match the music to what is going on in the video. You are so popular, either one of you could run for president and win. Not a bad idea. God Bless!

[@bartwesp4303]

I think seeing your excitement may have been better than seeing the actual whale!

[@hampelrutledge4624]

Really neat having a whale breech so close. I hope Malin soon gets passed the Morning sickness so she can also get passed the sea sickness. Best wishes to all three of you.

[@juanca928]

Great Episode guys! Sorry about the tooth Johan. Congratulations on the Baby! Warm wishes.

[@larrymacaluso9051]

Another great video Malin & Johan, seeing that beautiful creature come out of the water like that must be an amazing sight. Fair winds and safe travels.

[@MsSteveroth]

I can’t describe to you how calming that was to me. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@PedroThai]

wow that was a great vlog guys, really enjoyed it, a bit of everything and then ending with the humpback, fair winds

[@richardparish8835]

Loved Johan’s reaction to the whales and dolphins. I’m sure it was a special day!

[@courtneygorman6491]

Amazing!

[@hakanjohansson6405]

Thank you for another awesome episode. I passed Öresund strait some week ago. Saw a couble of small black dolphins. In English don’ t know but in Swedish they are called tumlare. We were exited about them I can imagine how a big whale brings out emotions. Far winds.

[@ruthpeeler2754]

Thank you for sharing your travels, looks like Malin is feeling better. Good luck with the sale and sail.

[@keessturm2804]

What a beautiful show by nature, al these sea creatures, I hope Marlin was fit enough to get on deck and see something of it.

[@philippechevereau9818]

CA doesn’t do things small, Wales splashing on your hull and dentist overcharging! All the best!

[@marionhill3886]

Wow, that whale was amazing.

[@davidnierzwick2775]

Wait all week to see you 2 soon to be 3😊

[@durvalserraodaveiga8453]

I have bean watching you from the beginning what a fantastic experience hope you're teeth get better never been to a dentist that gave me wine but then never payed that much,may god sail with you 👏

[@bayanicustodio3998]

Love the skies and the sea life that try to reach the sky

[@bunyipdan]

Hi Johan, loved this episode, looked like you got to enjoy some wonderful visitors in the blue, the dolphins bow riding looked like Northern Right Whale Dolphins (Lissodelphis borealis), couldn't quite get a good view of the others that turned up later, thanks for sharing.

[@lancechristy2595]

That’s a massive swell thanks for sharing

[@terryg3921]

great video. Great filming, to bad you missed the big whale!

[@owenpotter2459]

Johan sure was excited! He really started to sound Swedish again, not just because he yelled in Swedish, but when he spoke in English again, his accent has come back real strong! LOL. Then it faded away again as he calmed down. That must have been an amazing experience to have one breach that close!

[@mikeferris8033]

Just a great reminder from another sailor, beautiful!

[@bertski60]

fantastic show as always. i hope one episode soon you will say that malin's seasickness troubles have passed.

[@scarletbegonias2359]

Love the over-the-portside shot with the reflection.

[@trumpetmano]

Exciting for sure! Nice to see the ocean is healthy off the California coast.

[@johnparker7945]

what a beautiful sail! thanks for sharing!

[@ascott6804]

For that price, should have left witha case! Lol!!

[@somadevo]

It's great life keeps you inspired and Malin is able to have comfortable breaks as you make your way South. When my wife was pregnant milk was what kept her from becoming nauseous when sailing.

[@thomastaylor6991]

Welcome to the left coast. Land of fake smiles and other body parts. You just contributed to the cause. Average price for extractions in the real part of this great country is less than Three hundred U.S.

[@teejay7157]

Sorry you were subjected to our crappy and ridiculously expensive health care system, but nice job carrying on anyway. The whale breach must have been so exciting. I'll probably never be in a situation like that in my lifetime... but thanks to you and your videos I get a small feel of what it might be like - from the comfort of my couch. Thank you both. Best Wishes.

[@dantco]

Great video...even with the splash of the humpback!!! Most Americans would rather have you two in our country than 99% of the people here! Stay cool!
