Hello first time visitor to this video log. If you are looking for a beautifully edited family sailing diary, honest and decent, with practical examples and adventure waiting in every episode, look no farther. Well worth subscribing. I am a penurious RAN Sailing addict, but if you find yourself in love and in pocket, please give to them on Patreon. Vera is incredibly bright, Johan is a 21st C. Viking, and Malin is his smart Freya. But my secret love is the RAN ll (Najad 440) as maintained and constantly enhanced by Johan. The perfect cruiser. And when the weather lifts - the Bay of Biscay! In case you haven't noticed, I love this channel and these guys. Peace!
Lovely video...great seeing Vera playing with her new Swedish pals...and of course performing her favourite task - the laundry! 😎.....btw that Cat must've been crazy to head south in those conditions!!......stay safe and see you next Friday 👍
It is amazing how you guys have grown as parent and right under our eyes your beautful child is growing up doing what you guys love to do.thank you for sharing
Interesting to hear Vera singing while riding in the back pack carrier. And to see how engaged she was in the music. Looks like you have a little musician in the making.
Fabulous place. Have only been once, on a cycle tour. Took our bike across the channel from Plymouth to Roscoff and cycled most of Brittany. Stayed two days in Camaret-sur-Mer. Such a beautiful place.
Hi guys! I really like your videos. Really. The quality is good. The comments are interesting and "intelligent", the soundtrack enjoyable and relaxing. You are so nice. So natural. So "human". Your daughter is so cute and smart, a bright flower in the spring sun. I love her communication skills. Your boat is great, you really made a deal. And made she even better, then. Thank you for all that!😀
Wow, that weather was insane, sunny one minute then wind and rain the next. Oh my goodness those crepes looked lovely. Great seeing Vera helping out, awesome. Hope the weather gets better for your crossing soon. Great vlog, thanks. :-)
Oh so fun for Vera to see other children and play with them. I love her little shrimp hat! She is such a great lil helper. The other day I saw a play housekeeping set and thought of Vera :-) I am glad you are not like that Catamaran captain who took a big risk to cross in bad weather. Too much precious cargo on board.
Hi from the state of Nebraska in the USA! My husband and I love watching your video's, what a lovely family you have, and we love watching Vera help so much. You two are such good parents and your videos are so informative and relaxing and you have set such good values for your daughter! Thank you for sharing and we look forward to your video's every week. Safe travels.
The wind and rain was crazy, but as always you made the most of the little bit of sunshine. Vera was a great laundry assistant 😊 . Sail safe prayers for calm seas and gentle winds. ⛵️⛵️⛵️🙏🥰
Camaret sur Mer, has a an abandoned fishing fleet on the shore that we showed in one of our videos. The beaches to the North West are great for kids to explore with lots of rock pools and sealife. Two classic wooden sailing vessels mooring there. If you talk to the right people you can get a sail on them. Nice video. Sail Safe Guys, Ant, Cid & the pooch crew.
As always a beautiful insight into your travels ... and all it brings.

Wow it looks like the weather has been very harsh to do much traveling on the water. The aquarium looked like a beautiful place for a day on land. Maybe little Vera was a bit afraid to think about what’s beneath the home she lives, and travels in ? She is growing fast, and she is such a beautiful little girl. Before you know it she will be at the helm of the boat all by herself. Thank you for taking us along on your adventures 👍 yesireebob
I lived in Brest 20 years ago and the scenery (and the weather too !!! ) remind me of my time there. Vera is a little pixie sparkling joy everywhere she goes. The filming, the music, the tecnical bits, the explainations, everything is captivating. So I rewatch the video to feed my dreams of beautiful images. Thank you.
You guys make such great and enjoyable videos! I could easily watch 30 minutes! Thank you very much for making these and sharing your adventures and lives with us!
We were feeling for you as we watched those weather systems roll through. We were also pinned down in Brest for a week when trying to cross Biscay back in August. Safe onward passage. Looking forward to your Biscay crossing 😊⛵️
Wellcome in our beautifull Brittany ! Mind you going south , you 'll find better shelters , and even nicer places ( i am from south Brittany) ! may we suggest to you Benodet/Sainte-Marine ( you can go up the river it is worth it), then going out if the weather is ok , dont forget Glenan islands . Then super spot in Belle-Ile ( Stir-Wen fjord very technical mooring) , and you must absolutly go inside Golfe du Morbihan, a lot of islands , and spend a few days in Vannes ( you'll be 50 meters from the magnificient medieval city), in a shelter where even 100 Knts of wind are barely noticeable. Have a good trip and take care. PS: if in a few month time you are not too far south , we might catch up with you , may be in spain or portugal , since we will start our own journey mid 2022....
The Bay of Biscain is always a terrible weather location for sailors. I have been privileged to race across it four times, twice in Catamarans and twice in Mono Hulls. I always felt better in a Catamaran. Good luck and wishing for safe passages wherever you may travel.
You were in my area, Bretagne , but I'm central and missed all the bad weather. But glad you managed to see some of the beautiful places we have here. Vera is doing really well but suspect she is capable of a tantrum, well edited out .😉😉
The Kids in france, learn Surfing into the school. The Best surfspots are in Camaret, cap Sisun, The beach at cap du raz and the bay of Audierne. There are Surfers evrywere. Last year i am visit PEN Hir and under my feets are hillclimbers into the Cliff Thats very nice to see. Habe fun in spain Olli
30 knots true is the highest I ever saw, personally. It was more than enough. Wind pressure increases logarithmically. i.e. 40 knots has 8 times the wind power of 20 knots, not twice as much. Go RAN!!!
Be careful! Vera is going to steal the show. It must have been nice to be with other Swedish families of your own age and interest. Great video as always; nice balance.
i have loved your videos for years .i have found them to be well put together ,informative and not the stupid t&a videos of other sailors .plus you get respect for sailing in Antarctic waters
Too bad you have to wait to sail on due to the weather. But where you are blown inside is a great place with a lot of stories through time. Le Mont Saint-Michel is definitely worth a visit. If you have to stay for several days. Thank you for your stories and videos. Looking forward to more great videos and stories.
I thought that with Vera carrying a basket in the chandlery, that she would have to carry the new anchor back for you! Nothing like having Vera participate in the chores. I thought Johan might give her several items of clothing to take to the dryer, but, NO, one at a time! Good plan to stop there and NOT continue to cross the Bay! Did you get the name of that catamaran to see if it made it south to Spain? It looked like one of the other Swedish boats was also a Najad. Family sailing is more enjoyable to watch!
Замечательное соединение Швеции и Французской Бретани,ребёнок- суперпозитивчик,просто волшебная девочка,никогда не видела такого мировосприятия в столь маленькой крохе!❤
Ahh yes the days of blockade at Brest! Back and forth, back and forth and yet again back and forth! Wind and Storms, Biscay and Brest have forever gone hand in hand!
"Camaret sur Mer" is a lovely little place to stay for a few days with such lovely beaches in the area... Thanks for the upload... It was enjoyable to watch...
See that you are late, you arrived to Porto yesterday. In same harbour is an other youtuber from Ireland, Zora. Think he need some good advices..... Have a nice trip...
Beautiful area and looks like a nice time had by you and your friends. Have you thought about fender boards to help keep your boat docked in bad weather? Looking forward to next week!
Great stuff ,, we actually live 30 mins from C s m it’s gorgeous and the whole area is so interesting ,,, that storm hit us inland 30 km and was v v strong … it didn’t last long but was a good one ..
glad you've reached Porto safely so really looking forward to your unique take on that great city, as always my thanks for making Friday evenings special, stay safe and well 😘

Love watching Vera growing up. She's such a sweet little helper and watching her enjoy the music was priceless
Seeing Vera enjoying life and growing up guided by her wonderful parents gives me much joy and i admit hope too.

Vera is the star of the show and she knows it ;-)

It is amazing how you guys have grown as parent and right under our eyes your beautful child is growing up doing what you guys love to do.thank you for sharing
Beautiful boat, beautiful family, beautiful life. Johan, you are rich beyond measure!
I think he and Malin have worked hard and made lots of good steady choices.
@@Tomm9y It is clear that Johan and Malin are very intentional people.
Vera is, absolutely, the best assistant. I love watching her mimic both of you!
Interesting to hear Vera singing while riding in the back pack carrier. And to see how engaged she was in the music. Looks like you have a little musician in the making.
Vera is AMAZING how she watches, imitates, helps, observes. And she is musical. Super parents.
Vera is such a sweetie and such a big helper! 😁❤️
60 knots! Wow that's really howling. Hope the weather improves soon
Thank You for sharing your adventure, Vera certainly enjoyed the other children to play with. Safe travels.
The little one looks more and more like her lovely mother1
Cheers RAN
Fabulous place. Have only been once, on a cycle tour. Took our bike across the channel from Plymouth to Roscoff and cycled most of Brittany. Stayed two days in Camaret-sur-Mer. Such a beautiful place.
I’m not a sailor and even I know the Bay Of Biscay is notorious for bad winds. Be careful you three.
Vera is so cute when she is "helping".

CRAZY weather VERA is AMAZING she is going to Have it ALL Down and be able to Captain all by Herself!🥰😁😁
What a great episode. Thanks for sharing your view of the world 🌍
What an adventure! That little mate is really a helper! Glad all is well and no damage from storms.
Wow, that weather was insane, sunny one minute then wind and rain the next. Oh my goodness those crepes looked lovely. Great seeing Vera helping out, awesome. Hope the weather gets better for your crossing soon. Great vlog, thanks. :-)
Nice to see you having a good time with another Swedish family with children.💙

The other day I saw a play housekeeping set and thought of Vera :-) I am glad you are not like that Catamaran captain who took a big risk to cross in bad weather. Too much precious cargo on board.
Indeed, it's so good for Vera to socialise.

I am so happy you found some other family sailors for companionship. Hoping smooth sailing comes soon, Gloria 🐂
Awesome as usual. Loved the forts and the WWII fortifications. Stay warm and dry in that French weather.
Thanks!
Vera is soooooo cute and learning soooooo much! Thanks for the educational field trip again!🤠
We all are😊
i cant wait 20 yrs from now watching vera make a solo atlantic crossing live on whatever comes after youtube im jealous of you all
The wind and rain was crazy, but as always you made the most of the little bit of sunshine. Vera was a great laundry assistant 😊 . Sail safe prayers for calm seas and gentle winds. ⛵️⛵️⛵️🙏🥰
You have the sweetest little daughter!
Very nice...Vera is going to become a real sailor very soon..

Great content great production. You guys really get it done! Fair winds from Marblehead MA ☮
Never fails. Vera always puts a smile on my face!😊
Always nice to watch. Glad you are back traveling.
Looks like you eventually found your window and have made some good progress south.
As always a beautiful insight into your travels ... and all it brings.

Congratulations, great episode filming. Greetings from the beautiful romantic island 🏝of Kauai
Love love love all the parts of this video.
Just stunning from start to end . ✌🏻💗😊❣️

Thank you.
Thanks you so much guys 🤗🥰
Have a look at ‘sailing gently’ = a more comfortable way to go to the Med. Great videos guys, thanks
Vera is so adorable! Loved the episode
wonderful, as always . . .
Lovely video, as always. Glad I don't live on my boat and I can take it out when it's nice weather, and don't have to deal with that weather!
You guys make such great and enjoyable videos! I could easily watch 30 minutes! Thank you very much for making these and sharing your adventures and lives with us!
Johan I use a powerful laserpen to check if the mast is straight.

I have read that the Bay of Biscay can be quite a rough passage. Be patient and have a safe journey.
Thanks for the video.
Thsnk you RAN for 272
Wow! They were some big storms!!
The Bay of Biscain is always a terrible weather location for sailors. I have been privileged to race across it four times, twice in Catamarans and twice in Mono Hulls. I always felt better in a Catamaran. Good luck and wishing for safe passages wherever you may travel.
Vera is a great helper! Nice to meet other families and kids can socialize!🇨🇦❤️
You were in my area, Bretagne , but I'm central and missed all the bad weather. But glad you managed to see some of the beautiful places we have here.
Vera is doing really well but suspect she is capable of a tantrum, well edited out .😉😉
I have followed you from the beginning, I love you guys and your work just gets better. I am also a seasoned sailor, I can relate.
Stellar you guys! Just a fabulous episode. Best to your family and to your dreams!
So cool to see you all doing what you love! It’s amazing how much Vera has taken to this way of life too!
Bryan from Vancouver
Another great video. Really enjoy watching your travels. Vera sure is a doll.
Wonderful episode! I absolutely love each and every one!
Great job of narrating and filming thanks
Vera still the best... her hair is also lovely....
Your "camaret sur mer" is said with the perfect french accent ;)
The Kids in france, learn Surfing into the school. The Best surfspots are in Camaret, cap Sisun, The beach at cap du raz and the bay of Audierne. There are Surfers evrywere.
Last year i am visit PEN Hir and under my feets are hillclimbers into the Cliff
Thats very nice to see.
Habe fun in spain

30 knots true is the highest I ever saw, personally. It was more than enough. Wind pressure increases logarithmically. i.e. 40 knots has 8 times the wind power of 20 knots, not twice as much. Go RAN!!!
pressure is function of wind speed squared, so 2x speed is 4x force, not 8x... ;-)
Wish you good weather!
Be careful! Vera is going to steal the show. It must have been nice to be with other Swedish families of your own age and interest. Great video as always; nice balance.
they grow so fast .
i have loved your videos for years .i have found them to be well put together ,informative and not the stupid t&a videos of other sailors .plus you get respect for sailing in Antarctic waters

If you have to stay for several days. Thank you for your stories and videos. Looking forward to more great videos and stories.
I hope you guys get the weather window you all need
Good to see you move
I thought that with Vera carrying a basket in the chandlery, that she would have to carry the new anchor back for you!

What a beautiful old church. Great film work.

Thankyou👍
Lovely video.
Vera is quite the helper.
Very nice video.
Vera working hard in the laundry room again, no easy passage for your crew.. 😂😂
Cheers.
I come from just across the water at Guernsey.Its a beautifull area.Try to get to Herm.
Beautiful video!
Go to the inner port. Less roly, closer to town :-)
good stuff
You guys are great Parents. Just like I knew you would be. GOD bless. JC
if you want to, you can take the main halyard get it through a cleat on the jetty, back to the boat on a winch and winch it to reduce the heal :-D
I like that idea. ✌🏻💗😊❣️
Very cool episode ❤️
I so look forward to your videos every week. I feel you are my best friends. Thank you 🙂
Wow, beating in 13 ft seas and 35 knot winds, that cat must be desperate.
If you would dedicate a small portion of each video on Vera I'm sure you would make a lot of people very happy.
glad you've reached Porto safely so really looking forward to your unique take on that great city, as always my thanks for making Friday evenings special, stay safe and well 😘
That's where i'd sit; at the back of the church during the service. Curious but not totally committed.
Try it captain Cook sailed 55000 miles south seems you go around and around
