Love the tour of Mustang. Once, during rough conditions , I got knocked off the boat during a 'chute set by an overly excited mid-bow crewman. My Mustang auto inflating PFD did its job perfectly or I wouldn't be here to post this comment. Love their products. Great video as always!!
Being an avid RUclips Sailing channel viewer, I can say the quality of story telling told by Malin and Johan is the best. Amazing tour of the City and life aboard Ran.
I'm an American living in Taiwan. I am new to your channel and I love it so much. IKEA is where we eat for holidays. Christmas Day I took the kids to eat at IKEA and had an amazing crusted ham and mashed potatoes. I love seeing you guys go there.
Wow, so glad you and your beloved RAN are okay, what a scary start to the day...this video had so much packed into it! Vancouver is a spectacular city, so cool to see it by bike! So interesting to go with you to the PFD/ foul weather gear manufacturing facility too! Will always smile and send you good thoughts when I see IKEA now! Safe journey!
Great episode, with the proper way to add a commercial to your material. It's nice to get educated (as always) while enjoying your episodes. Fairwinds, S/v Raja
Great Vid guy's. Nice to see that despite the incident you went and helped and did not make a drama in to a crisis. We got hit last year and it did cause damage. But, staying cool it makes the situation less stressful and you can then sort it out. Never panic! Sail safe. Ant and Cid xx
I love seeing how other people view great spots in Canada. The False Creek area is one of the spots we love to visit! We always like checking out the 9pm cannon that's in Stanley Park.
Wow! More memories... I used to live in Vancouver, on the North side of False Creek. Every weekend I'd go shopping at the Granville Island Market and just tour around... The Floating Village was one of my favorites... Close to the market is a fantastic Sailing School, which offers courses Up to and including Captains License. As part of the course students will sail out to the Gulf Islands for several days. Then, over next to Stanley Park is the "Royal Vancouver Yacht Club". I was expecting you two to drop in there for lunch or something...Oh! And there is the Tea House in Stanley Park, overlooking English Bay... I'll shut up now :-)
Thank You again for another excellent video. Vancouver is a very beautiful city, and I know You are enjoying it immensely. The Mustang coverage was very informative also. Take care, and be safe.
Great video… glad your boat wasn’t damaged. Since Covid the Creek has become filled with squatter boats taking up transient anchorage and detracting from the beautiful area.
thank you for showing us your tours of Vancouver, the Markets, IKEA and Mustang Survival. I'm stuck inland from Lymington, Hampshire, UK so can only dream of sailing at the moment. Your videos are very interesting & filled with good stuff. I enjoy watching them. Your trip through the Panama Canal was an education, seen other sailors try the Cape Horn route, so this was great to see, and you met so many great people. good luck on your sailing adventures.
... loved the whole episode ... Vancouver is a great city ... and the Mustang factory visit was the icing on the cake ... wish I woulda had one of their suits when I went thru USAF water survival training instead of the [deliberately] leaky survival suit I boobed around in Biscayne Bay trolling for sharks ...
Nice tour of Vancouver. The Mustang Survival story and plant is cool. I have used Mustang PFD exclusively for years, now I feel good about it. Hope you get a sponsorship from them.
My wife is from Vancouver and you both hit some of our favorite spots and things to do! It is fun travelling with you and this being home made it ever special.
Great video, Vancouver is one of best cities, the Mustang overview was super, and your eyes light up when you see IKEA and all your native eats. We have one in Atlanta and we make a point of having time for lunch and the Swedish Meatballs, Enjoy.....
A great tour of Vancouver, thanks. It is such a lovely place, a few too many people for me but still pretty laid back as most Canadians are!. Another very interesting video, great stories and always something interesting to give to the viewers. Thanks for sharing! I have to do some work now, my morning coffee is gone and jobs to do. Thanks for taking me away from work, I really enjoyed the trip! (lol) Keep safe and well.
I love the area. Beautiful! IKEA great stop. Very interesting to hear about the all weather gear at the Mustang plant. That's cool they gave you some gear. Great marketing for them.
So glad you had a good experience in Vancouver....except for the collision. Was wonderful to meet you at the meet and greet. The search for an aluminum sailboat is happening in earnest now.....
You guys are so awesome! You did well in the city. Although Vancouver is a nice city to be in. I love that company too. I use to ware a mustang float coat when I commercial fished. They are the best.
Hey Marlen & Johan, it was funny to see you so happy in Ikea. Sometimes its nice to feel a little "home" abroad. Enjoy! Hope the winter now is not to hard for you. Hugs, Franziska
I’m always interested in seeing how Vancouver looks from a visitors perspective, thank you for showcasing my city. I love this place and I’m proud to call it home, but really my real home is in the nature that surrounds the city. Well done! Bryan from Vancouver
Love this video. We took a cruise and it ended in Vancouver, but we never got to see the city due to a dash to the airport.. It looks like so much fun.. thanks for sharing..
Derelict boats are a big problem in Vancouver and Victoria. We lived in False Creek for 4 years aboard our C&C 32 in the 80s. We paid livaboard licence fees and taxes. Great times when we were your ages. Now homeless people have to live on anything that floats because if you can't afford a $1500 studio apartment in the city, you're on the street. Enjoyed your video. Thanx and happy sailing to you. I have a 20 foot twin keel sailboat now that is my retirement project. Hope to get back on the water again.
Nice gear . Didn’t know about Mustang. One item in your video you missed, and it’s a local phenomena, was the sulfur pile. I believe there was a brief view of it when the float plane took off. It’s a local thing , not a tourist thing. It’s across the harbor on the north side. Nice to see YVR.
It was so nice to meet you when you were in Vancouver , I hope your Christmas was a great one . I hope one day soon we can bump into you on your travels. Figuratively of course.
Great stuff, once again! Thanks Malin & Johan! You are the best! Have been several times to Vancouver, and love it! Better than any US city I know ;-) Of course Mustang Survival is a great COMPANY :-)
Sad to see about the crash. They trying get those boats outta false Creek. Too bad you missed aquarium in Stanley Park. Can't wait for next video. Hope you saw view from Grouse Mountain
Another great video guys glad you didn't get much damage from that piece of crap boat it should be taken out and sunk not really allowed to be on any body of water where there are other boats but glad you are enjoying your stay there looks like a beautiful city be safe
Maybe start a lobby for only the affluent to be permitted in harbors, or not allow any boat registration unless they're over $1000/ft. The free mooring obviously creates a problem.
i'm glad you had a great time in YVR ( sorry about the False Creek experience ! ) i have fond memories of biking in Stanley Park as well. Safe travels .

I rarely comment but you two are awesome. Your videos are calming, educational and I really appreciate the time you put into each one. Stay safe.
I FULLY CONCUR. Thanks again, Johan & Malen for blessing us all with such a fine production.
Thank you so much! :)
My thoughts exactly. It is rare to find such an interesting, well produced channel with such nice people!
Thank you for showing my home so well. I miss being up there so much maybe I will return home someday
Another outstanding post
Two thumbs up 👍 👍
Sweedish meatballs at IKEA is the cure for most things. Enjoyed the tour of the city and the Mustang facility. Great video! Thank you!

I'm glad you mentioned the 1977 date for the steam clock. It was created as a tourist attraction and plays no other role in Vancouver's history.
I love seeing how other people view great spots in Canada. The False Creek area is one of the spots we love to visit! We always like checking out the 9pm cannon that's in Stanley Park.
You folks make great ambassadors for the city of Vancouver and Mustang products.
Granville is my fav part of that area!

That music when the old boat was being pushed away...haha!
Thank You again for another excellent video. Vancouver is a very beautiful city, and I know You are enjoying it immensely. The Mustang coverage was very informative also. Take care, and be safe.
Canada has very friendly people and Vancouver so much fun! The foul weather gear is fantastic!
I could watch these - like - forever.👍😀
Great video… glad your boat wasn’t damaged. Since Covid the Creek has become filled with squatter boats taking up transient anchorage and detracting from the beautiful area.
Fabulous episode. Thanks.
really interesting tour of mustang. Chap was very proud of working there. Video of Vancouver awesome
Nice to some Slovakians from home town Kosice on sailing channel!! ☺️☺️
*nice to see**
I must agree I did get a giggle when I saw Freddie Mercury, after all these years!!! I really enjoy your presentation and the music you use. Thank you

Thank you so much! Johan has rounded Cape Horn before but this time we took the faster way to the Pacific :) /Malin
Our Vancouver is one of the most beautiful setting for a city in the world. Glad you had a chance to visit.
Thanks for shining a light on my home town. Glad you enjoyed your time there and sorry for the boat issues. There is no explaining some live aboards.
We love Vancouver. Been there in June and January. Lucked out with very nice weather both times We really liked walking around Granville Island.
... loved the whole episode ... Vancouver is a great city ... and the Mustang factory visit was the icing on the cake ... wish I woulda had one of their suits when I went thru USAF water survival training instead of the [deliberately] leaky survival suit I boobed around in Biscayne Bay trolling for sharks ...
En underbar stad, Vancouver. Tack för att du delade ditt besök med oss.
Vancouver looks beautiful. So great that you could sail there.
Great video as we've all come to expect!
I have a Mustang worksuit that really keeps me warm when it is cold and rainy.
As always brilliant video, loved the "Freddie Mercury" outboard.
Great video, so happy there was no damages on the boat. IKEA😀 very nice tour of the Mustang factory.
Wow - Your videos keep getting better and better. The Vancouver Chamber of Commerce should sponsor this episode. Keep up the good work.
What a great tour of Vancouver Canada. Must go there some day in summer. Happy you were able to get some foul weather gear. Love the vlog.
Used Mustang products since the 80's, welcome to my City so pleased you enjoyed yourselves
Nice tour of Vancouver. The Mustang Survival story and plant is cool. I have used Mustang PFD exclusively for years, now I feel good about it. Hope you get a sponsorship from them.
Congratulations on scoring some swag from Mustang! Always wanted to live in Backorder Vancouver.
My wife is from Vancouver and you both hit some of our favorite spots and things to do! It is fun travelling with you and this being home made it ever special.
Hello!! Thanks again for your movies.
Great video, Vancouver is one of best cities, the Mustang overview was super, and your eyes light up when you see IKEA and all your native eats. We have one in Atlanta and we make a point of having time for lunch and the Swedish Meatballs, Enjoy.....
Binging the last ten episodes. We have to save it for some weeks, so we can have a RAN Saturday morning. Love your channel. Best wishes from Norway.
Awesome, tusen tack! :)
Äntligen fredag och den nya traditionen med Ran-video.
I have a Mustang survival jacket. It is nice when it is cold out and I am on the water. Nice seeing where they are made.
I bet it was great to be able to have some food from your home country that was pretty cool.
So happy that you enjoyed my country.
I can't imagine anyone not being able to enjoy visiting with you two delightful people.....
A great tour of Vancouver, thanks. It is such a lovely place, a few too many people for me but still pretty laid back as most Canadians are!.

Saw another RUclips video where the vlogger's sailboat was struck in the very same area. Great showcasing of Vancouver and what it offers.
Yea, note to self, stay away from False Creek.
We really enjoyed Vancouver when we visited 2 years ago. Great video!
I’m always interested in seeing how Vancouver looks from a visitors perspective, thank you for showcasing my city. I love this place and I’m proud to call it home, but really my real home is in the nature that surrounds the city. Well done!

Another excellent episode you guys are amazing!!!!!
Johan, your dinner looks delicious! One of my all time favorites! Cheers U guys!
You should head over to Tofino and Ucluelet. Its amazing over there. I have lived in Vancouver all my life, 42 years.
Great episode in one of my all time favourite cities, and the Mustang visit was particularly interesting.
Nice, well done .. I always wonder if those old boats having insurance..
Major thanks for the tour . That was awesome
Beautiful video of Vancouver I haven’t been there since 1980. Cheers
That Granville market looks great, but I bet the prices were crazy!
They were a bit more expensive!
great and informative as so many times. thanks
Love this video. We took a cruise and it ended in Vancouver, but we never got to see the city due to a dash to the airport.. It looks like so much fun.. thanks for sharing..
Excellent video showing one of the most liveable cities on Earth. Thx, Adam, Tofino.CA
Fantastic tour!

Great post as always, loving all the places you have both visited.

I spent a lot of time (in a previous career) riding around the BC coast in zodiac's. Those floater coat 'beaver tails' are great!
Great stuff, once again! Thanks Malin & Johan! You are the best! Have been several times to Vancouver, and love it! Better than any US city I know ;-) Of course Mustang Survival is a great COMPANY :-)
Sad to see about the crash. They trying get those boats outta false Creek. Too bad you missed aquarium in Stanley Park. Can't wait for next video. Hope you saw view from Grouse Mountain
Mustang Survival makes great stuff!
Mustang is my favorite PFD maker. I have bought a couple of them.
Excellent I’m always so excited for the next video awesome!!! Thank you for sharing 👍👍
Aw! Got my Ran fix, good to go for the weekend. Say, for the video coverage of your encounter with the other boat, you sure do seem cool about it.
Excellent episode guys. ....
Thanks for the tour of Vancouver!
Tack för reportage 👍🌹 segla lugnt 🇸🇪
That was a funny & interesting one! Thanks to you!!
Hi guys, great film production, very much enjoyed.
Another great video guys glad you didn't get much damage from that piece of crap boat it should be taken out and sunk not really allowed to be on any body of water where there are other boats but glad you are enjoying your stay there looks like a beautiful city be safe

Thank you Johan And Malin.
Very interesting! Foul weather was very cool!
As soon as I saw the Ikea sign I thought their is no way you two would pass up the opportunity for meatballs =)
Great episode, very informative and great tour of Vancouver 👍
Great video of iconic Vancouver. Thanks for sharing!
i'm glad you had a great time in YVR ( sorry about the False Creek experience ! ) i have fond memories of biking in Stanley Park as well. Safe travels .
Mustang, really very good! A happy customer from Belgium.
Very good footage and excellent recording as usual . Vancouver sure is boat friendly . Fanx guys :-D
