    It's very encouraging to see the level-headedness with which you approach everything you do, how you speak about costs without sensationalism or excuse, but just stating facts. Also, it was heart warming to see the "Inspector" so bushed she crashed in the sled. I feel blessed (and a little bit envious) to be able to share your journey. Please keep up your excellent work and look after eachother. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪.

We lived at the resort for a couple years and grew to be skiing fanatics! I am so happy for you to enjoy such a break and recharge your spirits.

    It's such a joy to see Vera take to skiing so quickly! The skiing trip with the whole family was a true gift...and the Swedish train looked very comfortable and efficient. I miss good train service as here in the US the trains are an after thought, at best. Many years ago as a student traveling through Europe I had a Eurail pass and learned of the value of great train service.

    Both of you are an inspiration for any young sailors , especially with distant shores in mind. Not only do you entertain with travel but give so much practical advice and guidance.

    You should definitely keep all the wood and parts of the framework for the build, they could be made into really cool Ran memorabilia, I bet you a local wood craftsman would partner with you to make such items for sale. Something like a Ran compass clock or boat wheel clock, wall plates, knife handles, ... lots of creative items that could be practical at the same time... Really like the new layout inside and on the windows, perhaps the portholes could pick up the same angle, or somehow you could make it a motif on the boat... So happy you got a skiing trip in, now on to making sawdust!!!

    Very interesting stuff! I’m surprised your work to date hasn’t cost much more. Lumber is so expensive these days. You’ve done quite well.
    You didn’t touch on the cost of the design process. I understand specific information would, and should be confidential but if you could provide a general budget of what those services would cost on the open market, that would be cool to know.
    Great videos and your building a magnificent vessel.

    The build is really coming along well and is looking fantastic. Since you could potentially sell the mold once you have completed that stage and you have all 22 frames numbered. Would suggest perhaps also numbering / colour code the internal bracing and supports for each frame if they are different. This would help when reassembling the mold again. Thanks for sharing your project with us.

    I've been following a half dozen sailing channels, just recently stumbled onto your RAN Sailing. Not sure why the UA-cam algorithm hasn't hooked me up before! Anyway, you guys have the most enchanting story--I started back with your #1 and it'll be a few months before I catch back up to "here". In regards to the present I must say that your new arrangement for the forward slanted windows really sets off this design. Round portholes would be highly complementary of this stylistically, IMHO that's the way you should go.
