Surf’s Up At Waikiki Beach - Ep. 109 RAN Sailing
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ค. 2024
- Being in Hawaii and all we figured it would be a good place to try out surfing for the first time. It was hard to say the least! We also explore the island Oahu and go hiking, visit the famous North Shore and Pearl Harbor.
We are a Swedish couple who wanted a different kind of life. So we moved aboard our sailboat RAN, a custom built Beason 40 in aluminium, untied the lines in the middle of the Swedish winter and started to sail south along the coast of Europe. There is no set route and we will go where the wind and our minds take us.

As a retired Naval Officer I thank you for visiting such a sacred place and sharing it with everyone.
Ok. NOW I understand why Johan always wears cool t shirts!
You guys have a knack for always making interesting videos and causing me to smile....often.
This episode brought back some great memories. I lived in Kailua in the mid to late 1970's, and learned to surf in Waikiki and did my first sailing on Hobie 16's off Lanikai and Kailua. Boy, did that spoil me for life! Still surfing and sailing over 40 years later.
Did you move to the Bay Area (judging by your name)? If so, you must miss Kailua so, so much.
yes I did, and yes I do.
I’m glad you guys got to see the Arizona, it’s quite the moving experience.
That was a beautiful board Johan was using. Awesome video great couple.
Awesome video, again. But today. Johan's sister's hair steals the show. I loooove it.
Hawi'ian with a swedish accent :) Love it.
I have great memories of Pearl Harbor when in the U.S. Navy in the early 70's ....
I actually got a little choked up a few times during your video. There are so many places you are filming that I've been to in the 2 1/2 years that I lived in Oahu. I was in the Navy and would take the ferry over to Ford Island (past the Arizona Memorial) every day. Thanks so much for sharing your travels and bringing back good memories. BTW, I must have snorkeled at Electric Beach over 100 times. Another great memory.

The leaking oil ffrom the Arizona are called the tears of the Arizona
When I was sixteen, I was in Hawaii. During that trip, we also toured Pearl Harbor. It was nice to see the island again, even if vicariously through your travels. One thing I would like to ask, when you were at Pearl Harbor did you feel anything? I remember feeling a sincere and heavy weight of the place. Like you could feel all the lives that were lost there.
Y’all have the best time any where you go...
Friday night is RAN night and another fabulous travel vlog, be safe guys
Same here!
Quite a lot of exercise after being cooped up. Quite pretty.
Hi, I watched your Vlogs in HD on large screen. It is so beautiful. Thanks Malin and Johan. Vous me faites rêver.
Happy you all tried so hard to surf. Maybe next time! 🏄 🏄♀️
Another quality video. Thank you
Great episode! I was in Hawaii ten years after WWII; it has sure changed.
Another wonderful video!
Fabulous vid guys, one of my favorite so far.
Thanks for taking us along for the hike and tour, always wanted to see it. I like the valiant try of surfing!
Always a great spisode. Be safe ⛵️👍⛵️👍⛵️👍
Fun had by all. Thanks. ⛵🚣🌴🌴🌺🌺👫
*Amazing Video, thank you for sharing!*
Well hello Johan's sister!😍
Beautiful video. Great historical content and fantastic choice of music! Bravo!
Thanks for sharing a bit of nature, history and surfing ;-) with us! Great stuff, guys!
Just loved this episode so much. So much to see and learn. It was nice to see your family again. Appreciate your time and skill with the drone & surfing video, editing, narration & music. Aloha!
Excellent video as always, really informative with great drone footage and lovely personal touches. Happy birthday to your friend 🎉
Nice job on the Arizona and the Missouri. It was just like I remember. Thank you.
Great video!! The drone footage at 4:30 is so beautiful! Hawaii looks really awesome! Fair winds.
What a relaxed and happy vlog. Happy there were no storms or breaking things and you all could take it easy. Nothing like sharing time with family and friends. 😊👍👌👊✨🥂⛵️⚓️🚣✨
Great video.
How cool is that, see for ever.
Loved every minute of this show . Fanx muchly :-)
I found your channel a little over a week ago. I started watching from the beginning and totally fell in love! I have not skipped a single video (though some were a bit slow for me). You have earned a new Sub and Patreon! and have inspired me! Keep up the great work!!
Thank you so much for those kind words and for your support! Cheers! J&M
My father served on battleship West Virginia BB-48 during the war, he was anchored one half mile from the Missouri in Tokyo Bay when the Japanese surrendered.....
Another beautiful video! Surfing is a lot harder than it looks! Very exhausting! Your showing of the visit to the USS Arizona was very respectful. Congrats on the new anchor!
Ron, nice Surfing try. Next time go out farther before wave breaks. Look for right size of wave. Got too time it just right before wave breaks. That's what I learned how.
My father served on the US Missouri. Biggest Battle Wagon ever built of the US Fleet of it's time. the German had one but the British sunk it. Bismarck
Just recently started watching your videos and I am enjoying them more and more good job guys
My Wife's paternal side is from Oahu. Her paternal Grandfather was a 15 yr old working across the channel in the dry docks on the day of the attack. He received a civilian medal for his actions that day. I taught my Son to surf in Kailua and on a reef off shore between Diamond Head and Waikiki (off Koko Head?). Always up for going to visit that side of the family.
Very nice video, have a great weekend
Underbart att se och följa. Malin får skynda sig med nästa film, spännande :) Johans syster vilken cool pingla.
Great video! We love your channel und enjoy every video! Thanks for sharing your sailing life and show people how beautiful the world is! Greetings from Germany!
Thanks for the kind feedback! :-) Cheers!
Well, I'm officially caught up.. now what do I do with my life except wait for the next one? lol.. An absolutely beautify journey so far and such masterful storytelling. It's been a pleasure and we feel like we know you. Fair winds and we look forward to seeing what's next!
Thanks a lot for the nice feedback Mark! :-) Makes us really happy! :-) Cheers!
Another great video
Thank you for showing us the Pearl Harbor tour. A few years back we were on a cruise around the islands and while on the ship a hurricane passed by the islands and did some minor damage here and there. By the time we got off the ship and over to the visitor center they had closed the whole park for what little damage there was. So we went all that distance from east coast US and never got to see any of this.
Nicely done. Enjoyed your video.
Great video!
Enjoyed the pearl harbor tour. I was in Hawaii on vacation back in the 90's but missed the Pearl Harbor part on my tour because I was recovering from hypothermia I got the day before from snorkeling too long at Hanauma Bay.
Great job on the video folks...as usual all nice stuff.....it always looks like you have a great time no matter what the weather gods throw at you!
The surfing takes, practice, patience and persistence........and of course good waves! You should head to Australia, the best beaches and surf in the world! (a little bit of bias here!)
Keep safe and well, enjoy the family and friends, good for the soul.
Alles Gute,
Epic......
And Imperiet playing in the background... 👍🎉
Nice video guys.
Thanks for my RAN fix, I was getting the shakes. ,,,,,,/),,,,,,fair winds you two.
Haha! :-) That's some good feedback! Cheers!
I may be a bit biased but this was your best video ever!
Some lovely scenery as you drove around the island,and those battle ships are amazing.I truly wish there was no need for them,as war is such a waste,but in these desperate times,some amazing things are created,and the technology is very interesting.
Hope you keep safe and have a wonderful stay,nice to see that new anchor sitting proudly on the front of Ran👍
See you next time😊
Wayne Doeblin war is sometimes necessary; especially when you are attacked and you would like to keep your freedom and not have to learn German or Japanese.
Cool top class as always
48th birthday?! I am 12 years younger than him and already started looking older than him. Lucky to come to this world in this age as a Swede!
It is a good hike to Pillbox #1 much more than 15 minutes. Pillbox #2 is good also.
Always looking for your videos because they are always interesting and top of class! ,,,,,,/),,,,,,
A 25 kg ROCNA, I got just the same. Hopefully I will not lose it at see. Going to Alaska would not be mine at the moment. It's to cold and you know it, everyone search for the sun here in the North. British Columbia must be beautyful so I can't wait for the video.
Thank You again for a very good video. We do love watching your adventures. I wonder if a catamaran surfboard would be any easier. :)
Wow guys some really great video and drone footage in this episode, capturing all the green lushness of that part of Oahu (Lanikai), and looking down at the beaches there from the pillbox brings back great memories of swimming there at those beaches when I was living / working there. Just FYI, the other large bay in the background and just north of Lanikai is Kaneohe Bay, which has a nice small boat harbour (He'eia Kea). Pirates of Caribbean 4 was filmed there, and one can often come across local fisherman weighing and displaying freshly caught huge tuna. Well done on another great episode. Looking forward to next and to passage making episodes from Hawaii to Alaska.
Michael you and I share the same admiration for Mahla and Johan. They’re so creative and show a great passion for their adventures. This vid in particular had me choked up because I have such a passion for the islands. If they continue on with their adventures they could evolve into a modern day “Wild Kingdom” like Marlin Perkins did in the 60’s & 70,s but on Netflix or HBO. They maintain a level of true sincerity in they’re presentations. I hope they stop in San Francisco on their way to Alaska, dinner will be on me. PS, I’ll kiss the deck of the Missouri.
You should check out their tracking app on their website, they are already in Kodiak Alaska, hence being able to upload new episodes.
Bummer, I’d really like to meet them. They seem so down to earth. I’ve watched all their vids and find them educational & entertaining. It’s like their part of my hang out group. I’ve been following several other sailing channels and over the course of a few years and in my opinion they’ve evolved into something that feels a bit impersonal. Obviously I don’t feel that way with Ran.
Yes can't agree more, they are a great couple and their episodes are often inclusive of actual passage making, sailing info, winds speed etc , problems, fixes . When they are ashore they always seem to be so low key, genuine, and gracious to wherever they may be visiting. All void of much of the bad language and sillyness, and beers in hand or chasing sundowners which seem to be such a focus on many of the so called sailing channels. They are my favourite! Check out the Zatara family and Follow the Boat if you have a chance.
Haven’t been by in a while thanks for a nice vid!!!!!
Cheers!
Thanks James!
Good vid ya'll.
thats insane that the boat is still leaking !!
Love your videos. FYI the USS ARIZONA will never be sanitized. She’s isn’t leaking, she is bleeding. Mahalo
awesome! I would love it if we could make it to Hawaii one day as well. It looks absolutely beautiful!
nice
Aloha , I came by the WYC to see ya couldnt find ya ~ U guys came near my place at Kualoa ranch ...Sorry wrong time of the year for surf ~ reason ya kept falling off ya board mate...stay flat footed ...ya on your toes ~ ;-)
aweosome video guys aloha
Härligt med Malmöitiskan

Anytime you need ropes you know it's more than 15 minutes. :)
That's very surprising that the fuel is still in the tanks ! Here in the Mediterranean of the coast of spain lies a Spanish submarine sunk by the Germans .... on a calm day you can see bubbles and and oil coming up from the wreck and it was sunk in 1936 or 7
time to sail to Japan
Hi Johan: I f you are interested in how large WWII warships handled heavy weather, check out Typhoon Cobra on Wikipedia .About 80 US warships under Admiral Halsey sailed into a 100 knot Typhoon. 3 Destroyers and 800 crew were lost. Several dozen other ships were damaged.
Thanks for the Videos!
Ma grandi! andate a vedere il "Nido di Robin" la villa di Magnum PI
How would you like to have one of those anchors on your boat…?
Johan, did you manage to stand up on surf board at the end? I'm thinking every day about starting tu surf, it looks easy, but than I'm gonna be like you falling all the time 😁
Free Up Life - it's definitely not easy, but SOOOOOOO worth the effort you put in. I've been surfing for over 40 years, and can't imagine life without getting in the ocean.
It's waaaaay harder than it looks....especially when your not real young and flexible.
I will just have to try it than and we will see :)
Actually I did but then the camera bent forward, haha!
When I take my wife on a hike and she asks, I just say, "Just a little bit further" :) Of course she has learned to ignore my answers and plod on.
You never mentioned what made the anchor fall off to begin with ? This just doesn't happen by accident.
Did you make it over to the Polynesian Cultural Center near the North Shore?
Canada/Alaska or south to New Zealand?
What is an anchor "Sprint"?
Cabo has a nice wreck to dive on, also a under water river of sand falling off to the depths, kind of neat you sit in the river of sand as it flows off a cliff under water drop down with it then swim back up
Vad kostar ett ankare som det ni blev av med?
Ca 5500 sek... 😩
I give you an A for effort on the surfing?
You were lucky to see the Arizona Memorial, It has been closed indefinitely because of a crack
Love you guys and love your videos. I must say that your comments on the USS Missouri BB 63 being the last commissioned battleship is not correct as I recommissioned the USS Wisconsin BB64 and served onboard her for 3 years during the first gulf war (Operations Desert Shield/Desert Storm).just intended to be a F.Y.I. Please don't let up on all the awesome videos and content. Fair Winds and Following Seas....

Aloha guys! I started watching you right after you left Sweden while I was anchored off Maui. I followed you through Europe and then across the Atlantic. Then I got busy with other things (sailing from Hawaii to the Pacific Northwest). When I checked in with you again an PRESTO! you are in Hawaii!
I hope you have time to return to the Big Island and see some sights on the Kona side. Maui is not to be missed as well. We spent about eight months on Maui. It's a great place to spend the winter, despite what Charlie's Charts and all the marina queens in Ala Wai say. I wrote about it on my blog here:

Hope to meet up with you when you come to the Northwest.

I'v been watching you for about a month , I really am enjoying your travels ,
P.s. It look as thou you never took her socks off, what's up with that??
you also should show a little more affection towards one another, lt makes for great video
Why is you audio out of sync with the video?
Don't drop this one! :)
I mean the anchors from mighty Mo
In 1940 my Dad could select (graduation from aircraft mechanics school in Illinois) either Howard air base in Panama 🇵🇦
OR Pearl Harbor Hawaii... He picked Panama... 6 months before Pearl Harbor was attacked... lucky 🍀 Phocker...!! LOL 😱😳👍
China a Mans Hat there at about 5:23 ish, there is a neat painting of a China man sitting on thr ocean floor with Only his hat sticking up
Pretty cool painting, you can Google it...!! 🤓😎👍✅
There is something obscene about spending that kind of money on a 'house'.
