Merry Christmas to you guys.

A very Merry Christmas, fair winds sailing, from my house to your boat!

Merry Christmas ! Many thanks for sharing your adventures.

God Jul, og Godt Nyttår til dere også!

[@betty-loucreamer112]

Thank you for showing parts of my beautiful country I have never seen before 💞💞🇨🇦

[@catherinehackett7722]

Another beautiful video! I love your choice of music and I also love the times when you let the scenery speak for itself. You two are fantastic!

[@danteishadrouin1279]

So great to see my country in a sailing channel. Thx RAN! ❤️🇨🇦

[@williambremner9022]

So beautiful...so calming. Your videos are pure candy for the senses. Thank you, once again. P.S. I really don't know how anyone could possibly dislike any of your videos. They are all pure sailing/cruising bliss.

[@hankreardon8919]

Commentary. Music. Scenery. Always perfect. Thanks!

[@urlkrueger]

Of course when the stress builds (i.e. passing through the narrow shallow channel) Malin resorts to her native language. Love it.

[@sveula6454]

Belts failing frequently, sounds like a pulley alignment issue, another absolutely brilliant episode, just cant get enough of that exquisite scenery, i think your decision to sail to Alaska has been a wise one 👍👍👍

[@geodesy2009]

Very enjoyable as usual. The slow pace and peaceful beauty of British Columbia are delightfully captured by your increasingly professional production values. 👍

[@kunstmol]

I love it when you speak swedish. we can read, don't feels shy, speak your mother tongue. Skol!

[@VictoriaWargaming]

Nice to see my local area from a visitor's perspective. Shame I didn't catch onto this channel until after you've been by.

[@bluenose6795]

Everyone that follows ran sailing and watches their videos, need to drop them a like! 1027 views and only 187 likes. Give something back people, their videos are well worth a press of a button!

[@californiakayaker]

I guess it mainly changes the search results ? I'd love to know more about what it does. And if you really want them to feel good, donate a small amount on Patreon, or a large amount for that matter. Have to say though, a dollar from each viewer per video would make things very nice for them. A measly dollar ! Think about it. www.patreon.com/ransailing

[@JustMe-pp1mp]

I hit the 'like' button even before I watch the video Haven't been disappointed yet.

[@Niva20011]

Superlikes from us :)

[@oceandrew]

18% like to view ratio is pretty good for YT. 10% is closer to the average. 0.1% is the average for dislikes.

[@bluenose6795]

@@oceandrew This isn't an average YT site, it's a very well filmed and edited journey around the Oceans! Brings a lot of happiness to people in their mundane lives being able to follow these 2 around! Only takes a click to pay them back!

[@crustysworld167]

So many memories of our time cruising those same areas. Thank you for taking us along on your voyage. Cheers, MVPairadice

[@moleisrich1]

Incredible work and scenery. You guys should win a pulitzer prize,or whatever equivalent for these amazing high quality videos. You left the rest of the fleet way behind! Very calming too.

[@laser69beam]

Out of so many sailing channels yours is about the only one I can watch. ;) keep up the good work ;)

[@laser69beam]

Quick question - how far can you guys motor with one full load of diesel..? Thanks in advance..!

[@hunsadersrockinranch]

Just got done watching the Pacific 30-day crossing. Vid. 103-104. Great 2 episodes. Thanks!

[@bonniecavanaughsvcontent3565]

Merry Ho Ho... Wish I could have been there in Seattle to meet you both... I was born and raised in the Seattle area.... I'm on my own adventure right now, I just bought a 47' vegabound ketch.... Currently on the east coast of the US... About to sail around the globe.... Hope to run into you one day...

[@nomadequipment2177]

Woohoo!🤗🙏🏻👍🏻😃I wish you safe and beautiful travels

[@marcoantoniofederico7891]

Thank you again for gifting us with the beautiful images of your journey. We take advantage (my wife and I) to wish them a Merry Christmas and that the year 2019 be full of good achievements.

[@krisqk4589]

Wow. Great scenery and nature and everything. I never thought of Alaska as a sailing destination.

[@sweetgirlsoles]

Johan, I hope Santa Claus gives you a warm shower again. I love your both adventures. Thanks for 2018, health and good luck to you both. Greetings from Germany!

[@barneyrubel8703]

Merry Christmas from Cape Coral, FL. Just wanted to say, have seen all your episodes, you are by far the best and most consistent cruising channel. Keep it up. God bless you and keep you safe. Thank you. 🔔🔔🔔

[@desertdanblacksmith1394]

So Peaceful and easy going presentation....so calming...........Merry Christmas folks!

[@michaeldouglas6872]

He he using the rest of hot water for dishes and Yohann having to enjoy an icy shower ...that’s cheeky 😎

I hope you were far from the area during the INTENSE winds the last few days around Vancouver. Love seeing our west coast through your eyes. You’ve reminded us what a treasure we have. Merry Christmas!

[@Duncanj29]

Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year

[@RenegadeADV]

Man the scenery up there is just so damn beautiful!!

Both the food & scenery look spectacular.

[@brieneaton8578]

GOD JUL from St. Catharines, Canada, Malin & Johan. And to your families. Also wishing you a safe and Happy New Year.

[@HopeOfJoe]

Sooooo peaceful and serene !! You guys certainly know how to find the 'it-looks-like-home' spots to cruise. God jul!. Ha en bra vinterledighet!. Ses nästa år!. ✨🎄✨

[@jorgeconcheyro]

Joahn, maybe a misalignment or a worn support bushing is wearing off the belts? The pulleys should be always coplanar. Merry Christmas to you too, cheers from Buenos Aires.

[@nooneanybodyknows1321]

Merry Christmas Malin and Johan. Thank you for your beautiful footage of the Inside Passage. I love your sailing channel. The two of you are awesome. 🤟

[@yentlc.wiersma6108]

Awhuh... Spirit bears bring a lot of luck but I reckon you didn’t get to see one, for you had to have a cold shower 🤗 God Jul 🎄

[@alofns]

Merry Christmas folks from Canada's East Coast.

[@SVImpavidus]

Great video guys. Belt wear seems excessive. We have multi V belts, but the current one has now been on the boat from new (4 Years) if your using the toothed belts you can reduce the tension from standard V belt as they grip better. If not check the alignment, and possibly stone or emery cloth the pulleys to rough them up a little. ultra smooth pulleys can induce slipping and overheating. Shortening belt life. Sail safe. Have a great Christmas. Ant & Cid xx

[@donb4386]

As always, brilliant! Best of the season to you. Don SV Sweet Motion Bayfield 32

[@chrislee1435]

Always calms me to watch your videos! So well put together!

[@stokkioutdoor1894]

Ha en riktig God Jul. Utrulig morsomt å følge turen deres gjennom Alaska og Canada.

[@pricedives]

Merry Christmas Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey with us.

[@pkane5472]

Very beautiful country and you capture it marvelously. A slow pan is so much better than rushing the view. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@crafoo]

It's a beautiful, wonderful boat. It's so well maintained and clean too. You both must love it greatly.

[@Jocke-W]

Fantastic photo(as usual) God Jul!

Merry Christmas! Another awesome episode. Thank you.

[@CarBjorn]

Kanonfint filmat som vanligt, börjar bli väldigt bortskämd med era fina filmer. Vill önska GOD JUL och hoppas ni får en riktigt fin nyår. Tack för att ni delar med er !

[@billroberts9182]

If you're breaking fan belts frequently, double check the pulley alignment; use a straight edge and make sure the center of each pulley groove aligns perfectly.

[@sf100800]

Merry Christmas and a safe passage

[@bking0220]

I wish I could give you more than one thumbs up! Your photography is beautiful. Merry Christmas!

[@jochenludewig8857]

Merry Christmas to you two travellers!!! Thank YOU for sharing....just a pleasure to watch each episode......! Keep safe and well

[@knittiotsavant]

Catching up on past videos of yours and I don't know what you were eating, but it looked delicious! Your videos make me want to do what you're doing. Very well shot and edited. I've been binging since I found you.

[@voilierbagatelle6592]

In addition to the preceding comments bellow, when changing the belt, check for rust in the groove of the pulleys. If needed, remove the rust to avoid having your belt heated and eaten away by friction. If you find black rubber powder on and bellow the pulley system, it a sure sign of the belt being eaten by friction. If the sides of the belt are polished and glossy, its the sign of belt slippage. Merry Christmas Malin and Johan. I like your videos, and the fact that you do not put too much loud music in them. Let mother nature speak by herself.

[@davidnierzwick2775]

Merry Christmas you two☺

[@tombarker3608]

I hope I am saying this right God Jul to you and safe travel you two.

[@RANSailing]

God jul! :)

[@KingCountyMetroSTC]

As you get closer to Seattle I get even more intrigued by the Canadian waters. I’m new to having a sailboat and so far have only explored south and central Puget Sound. My next goal is to make it into the SanJuans. I didn’t realize how deep inland some of the inside passages are further north. Going further north into BC could happen later as my frontiers expand. I hope that I might have a chance to meet you before leave Seattle.

[@dalesandretzky3945]

Hope you find Angle Falls, best little hole in the wall village , with water falls right in the " Popeye the Sailor Man", movie look. Than there's a long short cut fjord, don't worry about the Rock, the BC Coast Guard goes through there too. This whole area on down south through Cambell River, is a lifetime adventure . Glad your seeing it. May you always find good anchorage !

[@zerofox7347]

I love this channel and i love it when you talk in Swedish too..... with subtitles obviously haha! Merry Christmas!

[@huffster6344]

If you plan on coming near Seattle, look up Poulsbo, Washington. It's called "Little Norway" and maybe it will remind you of home. Nice work on the videos. I appreciate the geography lesson and the fact that you're not focused on where the next party is, like so many others. Merry Christmas!

[@gunsmoke6230]

Thank you again what a beautiful part of Canada! Merry Christmas and Happy New Years! Matt & Liz Houston, TX.

[@jeepjeff9131]

Merry Christmas to everyone and Johan - don't forget to order some replacement belts!!!

Merry Christmas to you guys too! 😊 See you next year!

[@LearnToSailMexico]

Beautiful video guys, makes me miss home home...other than the sun and warmth every day down here in California! lol. Suppose you two will be heading down this course come June/July or so. Enjoy our home in BC in the meanwhile. Hope to share an anchorage with ya sometime in the near future :)

[@prober45]

I used to think Sailing La Vagabond was my favorite of the sailing genre vids until I became a fan of Ran Sailing... without a doubt you have surpassed them both in content and sheer beauty of your destinations. Congratulations to you two and hoping to be a fan for years to come! Thanks for sharing your adventures and the Happiest of Holidays to ya! Stay safe always

[@bertieperret]

Johan, On the Volvo engine, turn the pulleys by hand without the belt on, to see if the bearings are fine. Is the alternator aligned? Better lo leave the belt too loose then too tight. Run outboard without fuel when putting away, remember to use the choke when it’s about to die on you.... always something on a boat that needs attention.....

[@tjitse003]

i enjoy your beautiful video’s and journey on your sailer . very nice to follow Johan en Malin

[@nialloconnell5895]

Thank you and Happy Christmas.

[@klasbockasten9840]

Aye m8’s! God jul och Gott nytt år! Hope to see more about the belt/pulleys issues in next vid. Maybe some wearing on a pulley edge? Maybe some alignment issue? Anyway I’m sure you sorted it all out before leaving RAN. Cheers and go for some glögg! 🍹

BEAUTIFUL camera shot always

[@mikehicks4086]

Merry Christmas from Alabama. Glad to see you're bringing another year of sailing to a safe and successful close. If you decide to make a run back through to the Atlantic, you might consider running the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Start in Cancun and run all the way around to Key West. Plenty of interesting stops along the way. But then if you're going to continue west to Russia, Japan, India, etc., that route would probably be much more interesting.

[@garye4145]

Thank you so much for another wonderful video of your trip. Wishing you both the very best and a Merry Christmas to you and your families. Safe travels and fair winds.

Thanks again...

[@kensherlock6475]

Great clarity in the video, great job panning slowly so the view is beautiful. I had to unsubscribe a different channel because they pan so fast & so much I get seasick. Great job keep up the great work.

[@enzocarrara2948]

Merry Christmas guys and thank you again for such beautiful videos and great editing. But if you don't want things to go wrong get rid of the bananas, they are bad luck on a boat, or so they tell me, fair winds

[@jgmiller5044]

Johan, Just a suggestion for the belt problem. When you get a chance check the alignment of the pulleys. I've had the same kind of belt failures when the pulleys are bent and or out of alignment. Love your videos. We look forward to them every week.

[@santosbay]

I hope everything is ok now. Thanks for sharing this wonderful spots I wish you all a merry christmas and a save trip.

[@owenpotter2459]

Alaska and B.C. have been one stunning vista after another! We have stunning landscapes like that here in New Zealand, just not as much of it. Funny, I just before watching this video I was watching another Swedish sailing couple, Sailing Hilma, and they were adrift too. Probable not funny really though, they were adrift in the middle of the Pacific with no rudder! They did ok though.

[@treehugger9809]

I currently live in BC and it is beautiful. I also visited NZ a few years ago. Beautiful country and beautiful people. Always said if I have to live somewhere other than Canada, New Zealand would be too of the list!

[@owenpotter2459]

@@treehugger9809 I always said the opposite! Canada instead of New Zealand.
