WOOOW! Never mind the sailing (or the editing), great to watch regardless; midsummer is like Catnip for swedes, and I'm no exception! Looked so wonderfully nice and enjoyable, and it's always cool to get a 'forrigners' take on, and involvement in our - sometimes to the outside eye - exotic and nutty traditions! (and as you might have picked up, a favorite activity for many swedes is trying not to show [too much] how we almost birst of pride when people from abroad actually find our tiny little corner of the world as intriguing as we ourselves [secretly] do). And that's me having the greatest time atm., cunningly escaping the Swedish winter in a warmer location, but watching this makes my heart melt and longing for next Swedish summer! AND blend in the beautiful archipelago with that, and just WOOOOW! Great career move, btw. - you seemed to be pretty well sorted already, but going for marine electronics/ electrics seems to me like a "combining fun and work" kind of move? Good on ya'! Is midsummer btw. a big thing in Denmark as well?
Hi, thanks for the great comment, we really appreciate it. I hope you are enjoying the warmth away from Swedish winter at the moment. Sweden is a special place for us too, it's really grown on us and will continue to even with the nutty traditions :) As for the career move, it was something I had to try, I say try because well it didn't work out exactly the way I had hoped and I also got an offer from my previous company I jsut couldn't refuse and went back. I am however glad that I tried it, I learned a hell of alot about myself doing this and looking back I wouldn't have changed anything. It's something I just had to give a go in life. As for Denmark, they don't really celebrate midsummer, but I am sure they would think of any excuse to break open a beer given the chance :) Thanks once again, cheers, Chris
Hi! Great to see document from midsommar celebrations in Sweden. In Finland only Åland and swedish speaking coastline have this tradition for majstången. But I have never seen anyone jumping in bags, that was hilarious!
This was really both fun and nice to come back to our fantastic midsummer 2022 :) I was so happy to meet you guys also there :) Lets have a barbecue soon :)
I like it a lot!! Just what you need when its frezzing - looking forward.... to the spring. Just great fun - Viking traditions in Sweden. Best regards Sy Vilma Benetetau Oceanis 48, Svinninge Brygga 2 Captain Anders
Hi Anders, glad you enjoyed it. This one was fun to edit and now really looking forward to sailing in spring. I will keep a look out for you and see you when we get on the water again. BR Chris
Hi, just wondering how the keel is going? I watched the repairs that was done and how an awesome job they did . Also what was the torque setting on the keel bolts when you checked later? Thanks 👍
Keel is going great thanks. By eye inspection the bolts have not loosened and I really doubt they have. It's on my to-do list to check this spring though
Nice! Already looking forward to the next one 👍
Thanks! 👍
Likewise, I'm glad you're back. Hope to see you guys soon!
Very nice to see your movies again. It's a treat for the soul to see midsummer celebrations now that it's freezing temperatures outdoors 👍🏻
Hi Ulrik, you are very welcome. Glad you enjoyed it

And the dog was great!
Thanks, yea the "sack race" was something the club island put on, it was a lot of fun
Nice to see your videos again. I was afraid you had sold the boat. Still very much to discover and enjoy your upcoming 2023 season.
Thanks Staffan, no worries more content to come

Hi Mange, for sure, always great to come back to the island especially for midsummer. Nice to meet you guys, we will be grilling again soon :)
We love it🏋🏻♀️🤟🏋🏻♀️
Thanks :)
Well. As a recent subscriber, this was a nice suprise in the middle of pitch black winter with a meter of snow and -15 celcius outside the window :)
Your welcome, indeed it's gone a little cold again but we were enjoying the sun today on a nice walk
