Hello RAN Family. I am a 73 yr old man living in Ballard, WA. I have been sailing with you from the "git go" speaking for myself, it matters NOT where you sail. Its about your love for each other. How you treat your lovely child. Your Husbands sailing skills, maint skills are amazing. Mom you do a damn good job as well, so star safe, be thankful for all. God Bless..."And if the wind is right you can find the joy Of innocence again" written by Christopher Cross
No, thank you for making your videos. I’m one of those who’s watched from the start and you’ve fed my dream. We now have the boat and will sail away after Christmas.
it's amazing how so many channels have inspired me to take the splash much much much sooner than planned so thank you I agree i should be splashing myself in the next 45-60 days i hope to see and meet everyone at anchorage
We're former boaters for years. Due to my husband having a bad hip and a knee, we had to give it up. Seeing places, thru your eyes, is definitely a joy for us to watch your videos! Well done brave souls!
What a pleasure to see Vera growing up. I’ve been following your channel for many years and it remains one of my favorites. Thank you for sharing your family’s adventures.
Thank YOU! my wife and I have been watching since the beginning, you've inspired us to buy a small catalina 22 to learn while we prepare to retire, buy a bigger boat and sail around the world. you guys rock :)
I think one of the main things I get from your videos is the incredible amount of Tranquility in your lives. It will seem strange to you, but I am so envious of what it must feel like to feel that calm everyday. I know there are stressors No Doubt. But my general daily feeling is one of anxiety. And I know many people feel the same way. So thank you thank you thank you.
I like how together you consider your experiences in diverse locations, kind people, forming a balanced opinion and shared experiences. Your love for one another, care and respect for those and things around you, shine throughout. I have fond memories of your fabulous videos over the years. You have always conveyed a skill at combining multiple elements of images, music, narrative, timings, and more. Pre-pandemic (Feb-2020) videos of Alaska, helped me to cope with a broken arm, sleep, and then rise for a demanding day at work on a new project. Would love to support you more, but still have big constraints.
6 years is no surprise! every episode is a wonderful adventure and your video and stories are absolutely the best!!-here's to as many more as you feel like inviting us!... bon voyage!
My husband told me about you guys. We have been watching from the 2019 but went back and watched from the beginning. It is now my weekend ritual. Thank you.
Your videos are so popular because you 2 at first and now Vera are beautiful people❤️❤️❤️ I love this channel because you guys are relatable and kind and I get lost in your adventures🤙💪
I enjoy your channel very much and.have watched from the beginning. I still sail, but at 76 years old, your adventures ate out of the question for me. I still get to enjoy these destinations through you.
The great thing is the 'no drama' allows them to create even better videos. Their focus is on higher level content, and I guess is more satisfying to create, a virtuous circle.
Of course, I enjoyed this episode. You make them so enjoyable, would be tough not to enjoy. I have also been from the beginning. Hard to believe it's 6 years. ❤😊
i paused the vlog when YOU thanked US - you have a brought me and many others so much pleasure over the years and watching Vera grow and develop is a joy to behold, just wish you had more views which you thoroughly deserve, stay safe and well XxX
I love your peaceful low key, approach to sailing. It is so relaxing, and your underwater footage makes me feel like I am there. Thank you for sharing your life on the water. I have missed my window to take to the water but watching your channel brings me joy and peace.🥰
I started watching your channel a few episodes before Malin almost chopped her toe off with the hatch cover. Not sure how long ago that was, but I subscribed the day I started watching. You guys have been showing top quality videos ever since and yours is one of the video channels I hit the like button before I even watch the video. I always know it will be good. Thank you for keeping us in your life and the work you do with the videos.
Jag har följt er nästan från början och ser fram emot varje fredag för att titta! Åkte visserligen stor båt till Australien 1967 och hem igen 1969.Ena vägen runt Goda hoppsudden(Zues var stängd) och den andra genom Panama! Vi stannade på så många platser!Så Tacksam. Lycka till i fortsättningen.
We watched right from the first. We thought with the cold and a certain person being sea sick, we expected about 6 videos. That worked out differently. Still just as interesting today.
I have been watching your videos for a very long time now and have never been disappointed. You seem to have the ability to present beautiful places in a calm and informative manner, thank you for that. Watching Vera growing is an added a joy, such a beautiful smile. Thank you both for sharing your journey as you travel to places many of us will probably never see. Fair winds and safe travels.
Thanks so much for taking us along with you on your sailing adventures. It's our Sunday morning treat watching you while we have a cup of tea in bed! We have lived on boats for many years so we totally get you, but now we have a cottage up in the forest in Aotearoa New Zealand, where you would be welcome any time.
No need to say thanks .. i have followed from the start and i cant imagine a Saturday morning without Ran … super quality, highly professional, amusing, informative … you guys are the very tops !
Thank you for the wonderful videos! This is the only channel I have donated to, I only wish I could send more because I have gotten so much pleasure from watching!😊
We are so fortunate that you share your beautiful life with all of us and just thank you seems inadequate 😊 You are an incredible family and Vera is more adorable with every vlog.👍👍💕💕 Fair wind and stay safe ⛵️⛵️⛵️🥰
Its a 2 way street! Thank you for inspiring us to take the leap ourselves in retirement. We bought a Najad for our adventure and were so interested when you did too. It has been a privilege to watch your family grow and meet tha challenges of the sailing life. Your videos are so well made and a reflection of your lovely way of life. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing your lives with us! Grateful for seeing Vera growing up... An you 2 look so content really happy... It's been a complete joy to watch your family grow an evolve.. ✌🏼💗😊❣️
Alas, I was not here in the very beginning, BUT I GOT HERE AS FAST AS I COULD! Two remarkable things about today's video, #1, I don't know what camera you're using to film underwater, but it's fantastic, very sharp and clear. The underwater colors are remarkable and every bit professional grade photography! And #2, Thank you so much for spending the time filming Vera! I really enjoy the boat life videos, but Vera is so precious, she's a real superstar! And, thank you so much for taking the time to post your videos! We thoroughly enjoy watching them and look forward to each Friday's video drop!
Great cinematography, edition, music and of course, places that we are able to experience each week thanks to you. Please, keep up your great work. And as always, Godspeed for you three!
Love your vlogs, followed you for years and thank you for putting them out there, it's been a real pleasure to watch your lives and the travels you have been on. Wow, what an absolutely beautiful place, the beaches the clear water and marine animals. You look like you are all having a great time, wonderful to see. Love the vlog.
Although you mentioned that many of the islands are similar, each video is a new adventure for those watching. I hope your family is enjoying these trips as much as those of us that are watching. God Bless your voyages, safe travels.
My husband and I love your videos way from the beginning! We would love to meet all of you someday. Vera has beautiful pig tails! We live in Florida😊We are seniors who are disabled. My husband was in the service whose job was in the engine room on a ship. So he knows all about repairs.
Been following since you sailed in a snowstorm & still enjoying every minute of your video’s, and now that you have a daughter with the same name as my late mother & sister I guess I’ll be around for a few more voyages 🙂
I caught your video where you announced there would be an addition to the crew. Have no missed an episode since. I really enjoy the tours you have taken us on. I learned a lot about your country while you crossed Sweden on the canals and locks. Thanks for a great way to start my Saturday mornings.
It was so surprising to see a Blue Jay (at the very end of the video). It is the only common thing between your “backyard” and mine. Vera is such a delight. She should have her own “Vera Cam”!
I too have been watching since your 1st video and I love them. I watch other sailors also but enjoy yours the most. I live in the Rocky Mtns. and because of you I have reacquainted myself with sailing on a lake in Colorado and plan to buy a boat soon. My family live on the east coast so hopefully summer on the water and winter on the skis. I've looked at many boats online and all are being compared to RANII. I just love your boat. Keep enjoying your lives and I hope one day to meet you in person.
Hello, yes have watched you since first departure when you were two, now three. I was thinking whilst watching this episode with Vera, the timing in life, covid forced you to stay home in Sweden, where you were able to show us your lovely country and quality time with family whilst Vera a baby, how time flies or sails by..
it's interesting watching your adventures. watching your family grow. watching vera explore. don't stop exploring. looking forward to your next adventures!
I recall the first video of yours I saw. Leaving Sweden (I think) in the snow on Ran. Have thoroughly enjoyed following your adventures since then. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Hello RAN Family. I am a 73 yr old man living in Ballard, WA. I have been sailing with you from the "git go" speaking for myself, it matters NOT where you sail. Its about your love for each other.

Ditto. I'm quite a lot younger than you (71 ha ha), but everything you just said. I've been watching since the very beginning.
No, thank you for making your videos. I’m one of those who’s watched from the start and you’ve fed my dream. We now have the boat and will sail away after Christmas.

Great music choices. We love watching Vera grow. She’s an amazing child.
What a pleasure to see Vera growing up. I’ve been following your channel for many years and it remains one of my favorites. Thank you for sharing your family’s adventures.
Thank YOU! my wife and I have been watching since the beginning, you've inspired us to buy a small catalina 22 to learn while we prepare to retire, buy a bigger boat and sail around the world. you guys rock :)
When you talked of gratitude for your supporters, reminded me to give you a thumbs up.
I think one of the main things I get from your videos is the incredible amount of Tranquility in your lives. It will seem strange to you, but I am so envious of what it must feel like to feel that calm everyday. I know there are stressors No Doubt. But my general daily feeling is one of anxiety. And I know many people feel the same way. So thank you thank you thank you.
We love going along on the small island adventures with you and your family,...thank you for sharing. Safe travels.
I have just realised it’s a long time since I have said,thank you! So thank you so much!
There's so much to love and admire in your family and destiny. Highest Blessings
You're welcome but, following you is a weekly pleasure that brings us a part of you.
So a big THANK YOU right back at you.
I’ve watched everyone since that frigid morning in 2016 when you first left Sweden.
I like how together you consider your experiences in diverse locations, kind people, forming a balanced opinion and shared experiences. Your love for one another, care and respect for those and things around you, shine throughout.
I have fond memories of your fabulous videos over the years. You have always conveyed a skill at combining multiple elements of images, music, narrative, timings, and more.

Thank you very much for taking us with you.
Every port/anchorage is wonderfully different.
Awesome! Please don't stop!
Been with you since the first video. Your videos are peaceful, relaxing, and just plain beautiful. And it's amazing how fast Vera is growing.
You are very welcome!!!!! Thanks for the videos!!!!
What a life!
What a beautiful beautiful life 🥰
I enjoy your channel very much and.have watched from the beginning. I still sail, but at 76 years old, your adventures ate out of the question for me. I still get to enjoy these destinations through you.
Hi from Florida. Thanks for 5 years plus of your Sailing. Please Be Safe.
Wonderful no drama content. Been watching pretty close from the beginning. Thanks for sharing!!!
definitely, " loved"- the no drama content 🌞
The great thing is the 'no drama' allows them to create even better videos. Their focus is on higher level content, and I guess is more satisfying to create, a virtuous circle.
The pleasure has been ours. Thank you so much for making the videos to share with us.
Love seeing Vera, she is growing up so fast. So sweet!
I've enjoyed every episode since 2016! Thank you for putting in the effort to entertain us all.
Of course, I enjoyed this episode. You make them so enjoyable, would be tough not to enjoy. I have also been from the beginning. Hard to believe it's 6 years. ❤😊

Sweet to watch Vera climbing with the rope in the playpark. Her sea legs work well on land. Really lovely video.

Wow, what an absolutely beautiful place, the beaches the clear water and marine animals. You look like you are all having a great time, wonderful to see. Love the vlog.
Another beautiful episode!
Happy for you. Thanks, as always.
Another great episode. The water quality in the underwater footage, while snorkelling, was amazing. Stay safe out there.
Although you mentioned that many of the islands are similar, each video is a new adventure for those watching. I hope your family is enjoying these trips as much as those of us that are watching. God Bless your voyages, safe travels.
I enjoy your videos because hey have a real genuine, authentic feeling. You are both good communicators
My husband and I love your videos way from the beginning! We would love to meet all of you someday. Vera has beautiful pig tails! We live in Florida😊We are seniors who are disabled. My husband was in the service whose job was in the engine room on a ship. So he knows all about repairs.

Been following since you sailed in a snowstorm & still enjoying every minute of your video’s, and now that you have a daughter with the same name as my late mother & sister I guess I’ll be around for a few more voyages 🙂
All pleasure on my side,thanks a lot for the movies ,it helps to switch off.
The brain coral and the coral at 16:07 would make for amazing jig saw puzzles. Thanks for sharing another beautiful island
I've been watching you since the beginning and your chanel just keeps getting better and better! Vera is quite the little boat girl these days 🤗💞
I’ve been here since Episode 1 so long ago. I love your channel and watching you become a family has been wonderful. Continued blessings for you all!
Thank you!
Love all the videos, never boring & I like all the different islands, they are beautiful.
I caught your video where you announced there would be an addition to the crew. Have no missed an episode since. I really enjoy the tours you have taken us on. I learned a lot about your country while you crossed Sweden on the canals and locks. Thanks for a great way to start my Saturday mornings.

As always, beautiful footage. I love seeing the water surface from underneath it. Vera is quite the strong climber! I love watching her grow.
I too have been watching since your 1st video and I love them. I watch other sailors also but enjoy yours the most. I live in the Rocky Mtns. and because of you I have reacquainted myself with sailing on a lake in Colorado and plan to buy a boat soon.
