We spend some time on our little sailboat Articos and prepare her for our coming sail. Then we laminate the chain plates reinforcements.
We are a Swedish family who have sailed the world since 2016 while sharing the adventures here on TH-cam. While we are still sailing, our main focus now a days is building RAN III, a 50 ft sailboat that we are building from scratch. We post a new episode every Friday so make sure to subscribe and hit the bell to be the first to know when there is a new episode!

Malin, Johan & Vera
There is no part of Ran III that you will not be infinitely familiar with!
Home grown food and home made boat. Can't ask for anything better!
This sailboat is really taking shape! we're all with you.....
As I get older and older I fing it harder to get moving to get through my chores. Watching Johann' boundless energy puts me in the right frame of mind to get up and at it.
The indomitable Vera continues to amaze! 😂. In just a few years she has matured so quickly! I am sure that one day she will be famous for her remarkable achievements!
RAN is going to be a fabulous boat and home for you all! Plus ➕ you are living in Europe, the centre of civilization which is good for you and esp. for Vera growing up.
This boat is gonna be strong.
I also enjoy the non boat video. The garden, animals, birds, insects, flowers, etc.! So thanks for that.
I've found, in my life , the hours and days spent with family are SO important.
You will not regret one of those minutes.
Thank you RAN for 401...
Your stamina & attedance to small details continues to amaze and inspire me. A fascinating video!
You both have earned my respect, god bless you both
Vera is absolutely beautiful, with such a light heart and interested in learning new things. I can't wait to see her on RAN III, she'll be very capable by then! Great job on the 'glass Johan!
Vera is very confident and an excellent climber it’s nice to see and she is growing both in size and capability good to see she likes books! I have experience both raising children and with boats , both require significant commitment and investment of yourselves. You should be proud of your accomplishments on all fronts.
Even if it is more work, I'm so happy to see you enjoying Articos. Your garden is so lush and green. It's nice reeping the rewards of your harvest. Especially with Vera's valuable assistance. Thanks for sharing. 🥔🫛
I am very impressed by your "hard work" How you continuously solve emerging situations. Have built a few boats myself and know the work you put in.
Very interesting to follow your work
Good luck!
Strong is the dream in them! Interesting how the naval architect designed the reinforcement for the chain plates.
Everyone watching your video is supporting your production.
Your garden looks magnificent and so HEALTHY. ENJOY!
Pipi Langstrum is a born actress ..
NICE GARDEN!!!!!!
Your boat is going to be so strong. I am always impressed with your skills. Been following since before Vera was born. Aloha from Hawaii!
We had a problem with slugs and Googled a solution. The solution that we chose was the beer in a bottle solution. It is organic and it works. Bury glass jars in the ground almost to the rim. fill the jar half with beer. Any kind of beer will work. Then just stand back and wait. The first night, we almost filled the jars with slugs. The biggest problem is digging the jars up and disposing of the slugs. Over a period of time you will see less slugs. It will take several reproductive cycles to completely rid your garden. Sounds simple, but it really works. Good luck.
Vera is once again stealing the show!! Cheers from Canada
I know someone said it last week, but you really should consider saturating the wood before you lay the glass. Especially with how thick your strips are, they will suck a massive amount of epoxy out of whatever you lay on it. It would suck to see delaminating after you launch, especially with how much work you’re putting in to the boat.
Great video as always!
It is a little puzzling they're not doing this. I guess those side reinforcements have the wood lightly primed under them but around the keel they definitely didn't prime it first even a little.
@@wombatillo I agree. The starboard side laminations were basically white when everything dried. I’ve done half a dozen large lamination jobs in my life and have never had success with glass looking like that.
Vera is the cutest little monkey. Growing so fast
If you want the grass to come quickly, cover the area with thin plastic foil. The humidity from the ground and the light will quickly make the seeds spring in a week.
How do to you make such a focused and constructive child at such a young age? She washes potatoes, attempts to pull the boat with her bike, helps you whenever she can... other kids just demand phones and tablets otherwise they fall into tantrums. Vera just makes thing happen. Incredible!
As I looked at the hull form, I am just totally in awe that two people were able to make such a large, technically complicated and beautiful form. WOW !!!!
👍😊👍🇺🇸
So strange but wonderful to see you on a boat again. Thanks for sharing
That was a cool morning video. 😊
This boat will last for generations for sure ! Excellent workmanship and engineering, no shortcuts (at least until now) visible. For the carbon fiber enthusiasts : yes, carbonfiber is insanely strong, but not as flexible as fiberglass, so when combined with the more flexible hull construction with fiberglass, it is not an advantage, but rather a disadvantage, as the materials don’t work “together” well. Choosing unidirectional fiberglass is the right decision in my opinion. Well done !
Cool, another episode!
This boat is going to be relay strong especially in the keel area wow, great work!
I love that your kitchen garden is yielding some edibles. Yum!
13:30 your broken window gets me every week, lol. I always think there is a hair on my screen.
Lovely you got to spend time on Articus!
Crazy commitment...love your stuff.
Love watching the build, it's great fun to see the boat evolve each week. Thanks for your videos, they are great.
Well done, Johan ... very labor-intensive work!
¡Gracias!
I think it will be invaluable in the future when cruising that you will literally know every splinter in the whole boat.
Must be satisfying to build something like this with your own hands👍
I have thoroughly enjoyed every video.
Thanks so much for sharing😊
What likable people you all are! From Colorado
fantastic strengthening of the chain plate areas... great work!
I really appreciate your production. Thank you so much for sharing :)
TIP!
Use full strength white vinegar to clean your boat. Spray rinse with tap water and dry as required!
Keep up the good work!
JIM ❤
According to the articles of the "belt and suspenders" philosophy, it would be a great time (now) to add a triangle patch over the topmost ends of these chainplate reinforcements. That would not only unify the whole thing independently of other elements, but it would also distribute any load better. If it were me, i'd make a triangle patch with two layers, rounded corners, upside down (base matching the upper lip of the hull), all the way down to the 14th strip of wood (or just about where these strips you've added conjoin). Jm2c, based on the fact that whenever you can add strength through a simple, basic process, that won't affect the rest of the structure, you should. So far, i haven't been bit in the derriere by this approach, in fact, quite the opposite.
That ramble said, tremendous project. I think i'll sneeze and look again and you'll be adding the deck next. :)) You're probably one of the fasted two tag teams of boat builders i've seen, nay, scratch that, you are, given the size of this boat. Nice work!
…and I feel like an accomplished craftsman after putting together an IKEA project! :)
Perfect timing... exactly at the beginning of my coffee break at work. I thank you for lightening my load and enlightening my mind. Salutations from Victoria BC. Love your channel!
Also from VI, memories of Meet & Greet at Spinakers!😊
I notice the topping on Veras pizza at 2:30 and as a Swede I approve 😂
Love that Volvo MD2, I had one my Glander 33 and it was a very good engine. That hull is definitely going to be strong and solid, great work.
Thankyou 👍 coming along nicely
As Always THANKS FOR SHARING
Great work looks amazing
Excellent work as always.
great video
Love this!!!
Such beautiful potatoes!
Vera is adorable!
bra jobbat 💯
great video the photography , the music is all done so well . The Ran III project is coming along nicely Johan's work looks top notch .
😀😀👍👍❤ A strong boat will be a big bonus in the future! Take your time and make it right the first time and you will have a beautiful sailing "home" indeed! Thank you for your uploaded videos. Bye for now from Seattle, WA. (Northwest USA)
It was nice to see the family getting your little boat ready for some fun sailing! I'm no expert on boat building but it seems like the interior jobs will go quicker evolving into the Really Fun stuff➡️ woodworking finishes!....
Likely the worst is over and there's downhill starting now!....Beautifully handcrafted building, you 2!
I always Love seeing Vera, she's a Lovely girl and a Big Helper!! Very Happy for your steady progress towards the lifestyle you Love!!❤❤❤👍
Oh, you guys, just a most lovely family episode 🎉🎉🎉 Vera is just the cutest, growing young girl. She is obviously well taken care of. Bravo to you both as parents.‼️👏🏻 The chainplate laminate looks terrific 🙌🏻 Looking forward to the remaining fiberglassing effort. See you next time. ✨🌊💨⛵️🏝️👙🌞✨
👍
A thought on short sleeves. When you discard your coveralls cut the sleeves off and tape them to the new set in such away as to give the desired length.
❤❤❤
Sugar Snaps!!! Too funny ;-)
Nice to see another of those old Volvo Penta md2 (?) s once in a while.
Mine likes mineral oil once a year and is very economic.
When you get to those weights I call it laying carpet! With you there in spirit.
😎
😊😊😊😊
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
When we are in power everyone will live this idyllic life. A quote from the late great Ned Daniel
Who is Ned Daniel?
lol. 1:56 Vera getting on/off the boat herself. I think "Great! Now she can go get the pizza when it arrives." 2:25 You are chowing down on pizza.
That was hard working but it’s loos very strong👍👍
Sockerärtor 😂 Hon e ju förbaskat skojig!
Vera will be climbing the mast before you know it.
That looks great. A suggestion I have is to set up a laminating table inside the hull. You certainly have plenty of space.
🍻
Vera is getting to be soooo cute and grown-up. Malin, you do such a good job editing the videos. Johan is so easy going and slow paced that it works great to do the fast forwarding through measuring the epoxy beakers. Just perfect. Thanks so much for another great video with a nice mix of your life. Ron
hiya, i have watched for years, great videos,
an observation, you dont welcome or farewell the audiance in your native language.
ps i would like to become familer with hi, bye, yes, no, more, less. two beers
Love you guys, from a South African supporter...
Johan, I will grow old with you :)
Growing potatoes is easy and delicious!!
The new boat is going to be massive compared to the old one.
😃😃😃
Food for thoughts. What about setting up a “glass wetting table” inside the boat. The table could be suspended from the overhead with some way of easily be able to move “table” aft as glassing progressing from the bow towards the stern
Nathanael Herreshoff considered epoxy "congealed snot", But is has taken over wooden boat building.
I still laugh when I think about that chunk of stuff the engine spat out last year
PIZZA on Articos!
Don’t think a production boat gets your level of care!
🧿👍
After I hurt my knee, my friend encouraged me to get a pair of high quality volleyball knee pads.They are comfortable and provide plenty of protection. You can even wear them under your pants if you want. Regular knee pads are uncomfortable and overkill for most projects.
Maybe a silly question, but wouldn’t it save some time to set up the lamination station (plastic) INSIDE the hull?
I would also roll up the impregnated cloth, lay down the new fiber glass, pour the resin and then go lay the saturated cloth. Let it soak as you're laying up the fiber glass....
Looks like you might have some Rhubarb in the garden. Don't see it much now and I don't know why. It's delicious.
It’s a favorite of ours! 😊
What is good in life Conan? crushing your enemies marching them before you and seeing the lamination of the kiel pocket
Exited for you guys to sail this summer! Is it possible to put the soaking table in the boat?
Surprised that you didn't interweave for the the fiberglass ribs in this episode
The hull is looking great, l see your doing the strengthen for the chain plates, had you thought of making carbon chain plates, if you are interested have a look at the Duracell project Ep 76 & 85 on youtube.
