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 🇸🇪.
What a nice train and a great way to travel. America is so car centric, everyone would be sitting in their SUV in traffic. That green sleigh certainly came in handy!
Family time is so important! Glad you made the effort. I am learning so much just watching the build. Surely your boat-building Viking ancestors are smiling upon you.
That's the first time I've seen how to teach a child to ski. It's fascinating to learn at such a young age. Your family skiing vacation 7 people in one cabin. 🤗
Really like the design changes, agree forward leaning window reducing glare. With the cost of lumber $3000 isn't bad. So glad you could go skiing and take a break.
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.
First of all we love your videos, it’s not only educational but so interesting to watch. Now as my job as a Fire Fighter here in the UK I hope you have fire fighting equipment and plans in place incase of a fire as I’d hate to see all you hard work go up in flames. Heaven forbid anything like that happens but always best to be prepared.
Johan mentioned a to me very important issue. ''A One Off'' boat. I've always been like that. Regardless the extra costs the satisfaction to have something nobody else has is worth tons.
Wow! What a treat this episode is!! When my sister and were young teenagers, our dad was the Manager of a ski resort in Banff, Alberta. 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. I hope for you sailing open waters brings the same sense of freedom and the same Joy's. Thank you from us here in Victoria BC. Happy Friday by the way!
Living in the Pacific Northwest I feel blessed that I can go skiing with my grandchildren in the morning and sailing in the afternoon! It is so good to see you starting out Vera at her age!
Very interesting episode. Waiting 2 weeks was worth it. Vera seems to be a ski-kid - maybe living on a boat gave her balance 😉 Ran III looks wonderful. Thank you and all the best.
good idea with putting the galley on the centre line, and moving the shower to the centre where you have more headroom, maybe think about having a hatch above the shower to let steam directly out which will help with mould etc
How could you possibly be from Sweden and not know how to ski???!!! So cool you are teaching the little one to do it. It's a gift she will have for a lifetime
Every time I watch one of your episodes, my admiration for the three of you as people grows. You are decent, smart and focused group. It would be a joy and an honor to know you personally.
I only found you about two months ago and have been watching all you videos. The best box set ever 👍 don’t know what I will do now with only one a week 😢 Congratulations to you both and you new crew mate Vera on a fantastic journey over the last seven years, I think Vera is as bright as a button, she’ll be at the helm soon. 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. I’m so looking forward to your new boat build and if you ever in the Solent UK , let us know, would be great to meet you. All the best for the future from England
What a wonderful family vacation! Seeing Vera skiing and sleeping in the sled was precious. You folks are doing a wonderful job with the boat. Respect!
For an ocean going boat I think the rudder and prop should be protected by a substantial skeg with the prop in an aperture in the skeg. Any small loss of maneuverability will be more than justified by greater safety.
I've got a son who's just turned 14.. when he graduates high school at 18 my plan is to surprise him with giving him one of my Harleys and I'm getting ready to start building a custom Harley for myself and upon graduation his other surprise and a dream of mine is to have our bikes shipped to Sweden and spend the summer riding throughout the country including Finland and perhaps Norway.. you have a wonderful motorcycle especially custom built Harley chopper culture over there that i have to see with my own eyes instead of just online
Going skiing for the day, on Monday, in the local mountains above Las Vegas. Late March, and there is still lots of snow and more coming. Never been this much :)
Västjämtland (where Duved is) is my former home area. Now living in Kalmar is closer to you😉 I did hope for that change of windscreen angle. Much more suitable and adds more space for solar panels.
I would make the short wall in the head longer so that the door is facing the hallway and not into the galley. It is a small thing but you will be staring into the head all the time you are in the galley. Just a thought
Just arrived at our Swedish forest house and recognized that weekly episode was uploaded 1 min ago 👍👍 Thanks, it be a great evening in front of the fireplace with Ran 🇩🇰🇸🇪🇩🇰
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!!!
Great to see the progress with the barn and the mold/frame. Will be a lot of fun to follow along as you get even further. Thanks for uploading your ship building adventure :).

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.
Just a note on screws, those with non-destructive head types (not slot or Philips, but, say Torx or similar box-type head), although a little more expensive, for any large construction project, well worth the extra in terms of saving for not destroying the head during insertion (so you can later take apart better) and just for accuracy of insertion too. What a great episode, and glad you all got some skiing time in.
Brilliant episode - loved the skiing bit, how lucky Vera is to be able to learn so young. The budget section was great - open, honest and informative. The proposed redesign of the front of the wheelhouse is a major improvement in terms of aesthetics as well as practicality. Just great - Thanks
I have been watching your adventure since before Vera was born and really enjoy seeing your progress. You show tremendous patience in getting everything as perfect as possible before moving to the next stage of the project. It’s going to be a beautiful boat.
Ms Vera took to skiing like a duckling to water! Malin; you mustn't allow Johann to sleep the whole night away - schedule him six hours working, two off - around the clock. Think of how much progress he will make on the new RAN! The Strongback looks SOLID.
I've been following a half dozen sailing channels, just recently stumbled onto your RAN Sailing. Not sure why the RUclips 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.
That's fantastic! A great trip away to ski and be with family. Vera is doing such a great job at it. Cool skiing with Mum. So funny seeing Vera out like a light. Wow, ready to start the actual build is such an amazing achievement. Thanks for sharing the cost and redesigns. I am so excited for the both of you. The boat looks beautiful and has that connotation of an older elegant design. Love the vlog. :)
I’ve been looking all over for your “weekly” ..and searched…and search again to no avail. I’m glad to find out that you took some well deserved vacation with the “ski bunny” in tow. Your ways of going about this endeavour is simply remarkable…I.e. cool and focused on making this an experience for all. I would hope that Bosch is supporting you in some ways with all the free add (exposure) they are getting from your project! Tks for making this a very pleasant episode! 👍🇨🇦
This is a great video. I sometimes like to just get to the point, but I found myself enjoying the longer, more conversational style of this video. Very interesting.
Vera sleeping in the sled …too funny 😆
She looked tired and I said that she could lay down and she literally fell asleep in one second! ☺️
@@RANSailing Like dragging a sack of multi coloured coal LOL

Thanks you so much for the kind words 🤗
Thumbs up Even before I have seen the video
Me too.
Me too! Haven’t quite finished watching the video but have been waiting for it for hours! A big thumbs up!!!
What a nice train and a great way to travel. America is so car centric, everyone would be sitting in their SUV in traffic. That green sleigh certainly came in handy!
I would imagine you saved $K's on the sweetest deal on timber and machinery I've ever seen!!
Family time is so important! Glad you made the effort. I am learning so much just watching the build. Surely your boat-building Viking ancestors are smiling upon you.
That's the first time I've seen how to teach a child to ski. It's fascinating to learn at such a young age. Your family skiing vacation 7 people in one cabin. 🤗
Cosy like on a boat 😆
At that age they will often tie the tips of the skis together to always make pizza but Vera is already doing French Fries !!! nice
@@jackblah5842 🍕and 🍟. Brilliant 👏
I like the tilted front. 😁
And the price to build big mold like that sound very reasonable to me! Cheers!
It’s a cool design feature! 😊👍🏻
the design has a vintage elegance to it and not all modern funky looking
Can’t wait to celebrate placing the whiskey plank with you. It should be live streamed.
Good idea! 😊👍🏻
Enjoying your progress folks.
Thank you so much Andrew! Really appreciate it 🤗
Vera sleeping on the sled says it all. 😂 What a fun trip.
Bonus comment to help out the algorithm
Thank you RAN for 339...
Really like the design changes, agree forward leaning window reducing glare. With the cost of lumber $3000 isn't bad. So glad you could go skiing and take a break.
I like the forward window look. And I learned something. The forward window has less glare. That makes sense.
Hi from New Zealand, love following your boat build and look forward to seeing the finished build.
Thanks for watching 🤗
Added bonus of Swedish night train travel! Enjoyed that.
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.

Heaven forbid anything like that happens but always best to be prepared.
The frame may be a really nice bonfire party when the hull leaves the farm!
You deserved the week off for some skiing, relaxation, and time with family. But, seeing you back in your barn working and planning is wonderful.
Johan mentioned a to me very important issue. ''A One Off'' boat. I've always been like that. Regardless the extra costs the satisfaction to have something nobody else has is worth tons.
☘️ Happy St.Patrick's Day ☘️
If you mark the frames on the port and starboard side and top with numbers it would encourage someone to purchase them.

Mom's dragging Vera cross country in the sled and Vera is sleeping all the way. Thanks for the video.
sleepy Vera, so damn cool, sweet, and many more adjectives. Cute, Cool, Collected. Awesome
Very interesting episode. Waiting 2 weeks was worth it.
Vera seems to be a ski-kid - maybe living on a boat gave her balance 😉
Ran III looks wonderful.
Thank you and all the best.
She has always had really good balance and I definitely think boat life helped ☺️
Try a little bit of bike and horse riding - she will also be great!
Riktigt frän båt. Älskar formen på "hytten". Otroligt fin investering...Tror jag🥰
Tack så mycket! 😊
I just want to say how much I enjoyed this video.
good idea with putting the galley on the centre line, and moving the shower to the centre where you have more headroom, maybe think about having a hatch above the shower to let steam directly out which will help with mould etc
How could you possibly be from Sweden and not know how to ski???!!! So cool you are teaching the little one to do it. It's a gift she will have for a lifetime
Because there are no many high mountains in Sweden!
South of Sweden is pretty flat and not much snow.
I too was very impressed with how you teach a youngster to ski! Good job Vera! The boat is coming along nicely thanks for sharing 🥰
Every time I watch one of your episodes, my admiration for the three of you as people grows. You are decent, smart and focused group. It would be a joy and an honor to know you personally.
I only found you about two months ago and have been watching all you videos. The best box set ever 👍 don’t know what I will do now with only one a week 😢
Congratulations to you both and you new crew mate Vera on a fantastic journey over the last seven years, I think Vera is as bright as a button, she’ll be at the helm soon.

I’m so looking forward to your new boat build and if you ever in the Solent UK , let us know, would be great to meet you.
All the best for the future from England
I agree m8 - cant understand why the subs aren't much much higher
Loved the sking! Looking forward to seeing the build
What a wonderful family vacation! Seeing Vera skiing and sleeping in the sled was precious. You folks are doing a wonderful job with the boat. Respect!
Family time is good time always. great vid guys.
I love this kind of boat build . Real craftmanship. 😎
For an ocean going boat I think the rudder and prop should be protected by a substantial skeg with the prop in an aperture in the skeg. Any small loss of maneuverability will be more than justified by greater safety.
That boat needs a couple of those classic forward facing vent cowls. They're useful and very cool.
Sweden looks like a very nice country
I've got a son who's just turned 14.. when he graduates high school at 18 my plan is to surprise him with giving him one of my Harleys and I'm getting ready to start building a custom Harley for myself and upon graduation his other surprise and a dream of mine is to have our bikes shipped to Sweden and spend the summer riding throughout the country including Finland and perhaps Norway.. you have a wonderful motorcycle especially custom built Harley chopper culture over there that i have to see with my own eyes instead of just online
Great episode. So glad to see the family taking a break. Vira looks like she enjoyed herself too.
Vera, Viking Princess of the sea has now conquered the mountains! Such a beautiful family.
I am pretty sure you will do such a good job you will be able to sell the mould, strongback, barn and farm to the next boat builder!! 😂
😆
I wouldn't sell the farm it's just too beautiful where you're at
Going skiing for the day, on Monday, in the local mountains above Las Vegas. Late March, and there is still lots of snow and more coming. Never been this much :)
Thank you
Västjämtland (where Duved is) is my former home area. Now living in Kalmar is closer to you😉 I did hope for that change of windscreen angle. Much more suitable and adds more space for solar panels.
18:20 I think it looks great! For the portholes, I would choose rectangular ones but it's up to you!
One of the best benefits of the negative angle of the deck house windows, is that it eliminates glare from the instruments in the cockpit.
I would make the short wall in the head longer so that the door is facing the hallway and not into the galley. It is a small thing but you will be staring into the head all the time you are in the galley. Just a thought
Just arrived at our Swedish forest house and recognized that weekly episode was uploaded 1 min ago 👍👍
Thanks, it be a great evening in front of the fireplace with Ran
🇩🇰🇸🇪🇩🇰
Enjoy 😊
Vera is a quick learner! Also really like the new design choices!
Awesome seeing all this come together with the boat and life.
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.

big support from spain really like the project !
The ski trip was a wonderful interlude, very much enjoyed, thanks for sharing. Boat seems to be progressing nicely.
really like the new deck house window design

Fascinating to listen to the new build I would have horizontal windows to give it the modern look take all of you 👋
Hello from Fort Wayne Indiana. another great video. Vera who’s gonna have some wonderful memories. God bless
Interesting to follow your concept of shipbuilding and that of "Arctic SeaCamel" at the same time.
You want to check out SV Seeker
Wonderful Vera, wonderful family, wonderful Sweden!
Go RAN!
-19c, that's t-shirt weather in Calgary, we were -28C a few days ago (LOL). You guys are awesome!!
Omg that’s cold! 🥶
I very much am enjoying watching the boat build but the skiing today was a nice change.
Just a note on screws, those with non-destructive head types (not slot or Philips, but, say Torx or similar box-type head), although a little more expensive, for any large construction project, well worth the extra in terms of saving for not destroying the head during insertion (so you can later take apart better) and just for accuracy of insertion too.

VERA Skiing was AWESOME!!!! TOO COOL I Learned at her age too
Awesome vid guys. Wonderful to see the break. Like the changes. Thanks for sharing :)

Very good video !
Thank you for sharing 😊
Another great video!
It's tough not to fall in love with your " CH" sounds.
I love your videos! Look forward to them every week :) Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks for watching 🤗
I am surprised at how reasonable the costs have been so far. $3000 is cheap for what you have constructed so far!
Just watching adventures of an old seadog, Panama Canal now I will have to watch your back catalogue 😊
I LIKE THE NEW LOOK OF THE PILOT HOUSE, A LITTLE BIT OF GARCIA
Awesome 👌 I get excited for your new boat more and more every episode
Ok hold on, you had 7 people in one little train cabin? You guys are real sailboat people. 😳😳😳
Haha 😆
She's a beauty! Onassis would definitely approve! Happy Saint Patrick's Day to you and all your family! 💕❤☘❤💕
I like the new shape of the deck house.

So exciting! I am very to support you through Patreon. Your skiing trip looked like so much fun!
Thanks!
