100% agree. Lowell at Pacific Solo posts quite regularly. We will try to post more content from Japan. For sure we will post a lot more once our boat is here!
Thanks! We hope to post more content in Japan, especially once our boat is here. It really is a hidden gem in cruising. A bit out of the way if you are taking the typical path, but well worth it!
It is wonderful the see Japan though the eyes of people that can see the beauty that surrounds you. The positively and love shines throughout the video. The information and entertainment seems to flow remarkably well in all your work. Just fantastic work from both of you. Keep up this work. It's something that could bring more cruisers like yourselves in to see these hidden treasures of Japan. I know I want to.
Super cool. So glad I stumble upon your channel.I am the custodian of the Seven Seas Ldz Project, all to do with sustainable development research and how remote communties can benefit tie in with the blue water sailing community
Julia lit up when she saw this comment. We would love to hear more about your project. Please send us an email if you can, sailingramona@gmail.com. Cheers!
Very informative and entertaining. Amazing cinematography. Super impressed! I'm sure there were many hours of editing to produce this kind of quality. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you for the kind comment. It does mean a lot because, indeed, it does take us way too long to make them! Hopefully we can pick up the pace more and more.
It was rather surreal seeing a yacht from Monterey being worked on, especially the Oriane. I grew up and still live in the Monterey area, and have seen that boat for years just hanging out. Good to know she's found what seems like a good home. I found your channel today, as I was just having a conversation about the potential of sailing in Japan eventually, once my family takes to the waters.
What a small world. Would love to connect and would love even more to take you guys sailing on Oriane (soon to be Ramona Rae) in Japan :D Our email is sailingramona@gmail.com
Hola Amigos and "Feliz Navidad"!!! Congratulations on creating another excellent video!! You've definitely sparked our interest in sailing to Japan. It looks like a very cruiser-friendly destination. Here's wishing you both a fantastic 2024 with much health and wealth, fun and excitement, fair winds and flat seas. All the best, Steve and Justyna SV Alaskason
Glad you enjoy it! That means a lot. We often wonder how our videos are received, because we spend so much time editing, we often don't know if it's good or not. lol
WOW, Talk about timing, I just started looking for a boat to sail from the PNW to Japan and back, My Son, Daughter in law and there children live in Japan. Thank you for this video, Blessing to you and yours, Merry Christmas.
Awesome! Serendipity! Or the algorithm is paying attention to you 🤣 Japan is a great place. Feel free to reach out, as we will be making the trip to Japan from the west coast of the US on our boat soon as well.
Just had you guys come up in my feed, liked and give you a new sub. We have many friends from Japan and this is one of those places that we want to explore by boat. When I was in the Navy we got to see a giant school of Hammerhead sharks. Thanks for the this video it makes me really want to revisit Japan.
I’ve been trying to get my 51 year old boat ready to travel from TX to Japan for over a year now, and I absolutely love seeing this kind of content from there. I feel like you guys revitalized my drive.
I stumbled onto this video and took your advise to watch from the beginning. It is a wonderful story and I look forward to more episodes. I had never thought to look into cruising the Japanese islands. Hoping to see more Japanese content as well as your work and eventual pacific crossing on Ramona Rae. Safe travels.
Your videos keep getting better and better. We love the animation and the drone footage. And we especially love getting to see more of Japan. Cant wait to see what you are working on!
wow this is a lot of exploring to do, one of the most beautiful country-Japan. Very informative video, I love how you edit yall's video too. You guys love this extreme adventure, coming from the Philippines, we always experience typhoon, I know how Pacific Ocean is harsh on some seasons, be safe, maybe I will be able to meet yall when you come to Georgia
Thanks for patiently waiting! Sorry for the delay (as always). We had a view all done, but then we had a sudden big change in our life / plans. Can’t go into details on here right now, but we have on our Patreon page through our weekly real-time updates. Either way, we are still sailing (hopefully) soon and in fact, we are attempting to sail our boat directly from California to Japan this year, in one month from now! So a lot going on for us atm. It might be a while before our next proper video, but we promise we have some good stuff in the future. Thanks again for sticking with us!
Yeah, very true! I thought about all those double keeled boats beached during low tide when we were making that part of the video! We do have it easy in comparison :)
Gracias Rafael! De hecho, navegaremos a Mexico en Abril-Junio de este próximo año. En tiempo real ya casi hemos acabado la reforma del barco y planeamos navegar por el Golfo de México a modo de '"entrenamiento", para ver si todo está bien, antes de cruzar el Pacífico :)
Say hello to Sailing Sea of japan if you can ... he's a Wharram 🗿 Islander 🏝️ owner and has a familly out there. It looks spectacular... and its such a contrast with Urban Japan.
Will do! He has already commented on this video :) He has an amazing boat. Rural Japan is too often overlooked by visitors. It's the only reason we enjoy living in Japan!
Hi Met you two at Minneys yesterday, Saturday about 4 PM. I’m about the same height as either of you. You were both so nice and I may see if you have a way to contribute to your trip. Mike.
What procedures/paperwork do you need to fill out in order to fly a drone in Japan? I'm FAA Part 107 certified in the USA, and I've heard that Japan is very strict about foreigners flying drones there. We'll be returning to Japan soon and I'd like to either bring one of my drones, or buy a new one there to fly. Any advice or links would be very much appreciated. Thank you!
It is totally possible! Let us know if you are considering it, we can put you in touch with someone who can help arrange anything you might need when you cruise in Japan.
Repeatedly you show maps with unlabeled bodies of water. Am I supposed to know oceans and seas around Japan based solely on their shape? Do you realize, without labels a map is useless.

We need to see more sailing vloggers in Japan. Japan is a very underrated cruising spot.
100% agree. Lowell at Pacific Solo posts quite regularly. We will try to post more content from Japan. For sure we will post a lot more once our boat is here!
Of all the sailing channels over the years... NO one has featured Japan... Really good exposure... Well done...

How delightful to get a glimpse of the natural beauty of Japan. Thank you so very much :)
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed the video! Japan is a magical place.
Ya'll just came across my recommendations, I'm in, New Subscriber Here! 😃👋

My first time watching this channel, very good content and background sounds, nicely Paced, so good to see Japan.

Great job! I love Japan and sailing there has always been a dream. Thank you.
We'd be happy to take you once our boat is here!
Love seeing Japan. I see why you love it so much and live there.
Hope you guys can visit us someday soon!
These videos are always so educational and wholesome! :D
Thank you! Always grateful for your diligent support :D
I never knew this aspect of Japan even I live in Seto inland sea----!(What a shame!haha) Thank you for sharing:-)
Still time to be a part of it! :D
Honestly, I'm in love with this small island Yuge Island. Lovely peaceful place to live in. Thanks for sharing. Cheers...!!! 👍👌
It really is! We would love to live somewhere like that someday as well :)
Just found your videos today and had to watch all of them! Thank you for the Christmas present.
Glad you like them! we are working hard on the next one. Don't know how the big TH-camrs can produce content so fast, we are a bit slower with ours. >
Yours are better quality than a lot of the bigger TH-camrs, and they often have more than two people working on them.
great ! unique sailing channel thanks for posting...can't wait to see and learn more of your Japan adventures ,Japan sailing looks beautiful
Thank you! We will try to sprinkle some Japanese sailing in here and there until we get our boat here, then it will be all Japan! :)
Thanks for showing Yuge island, looks nice!
You bet! Highly recommend visiting Yuge if you come to Japan!
So beautiful! Thank you for sharing; Japan is on our bucket list and we hope to be sailing there in a few years' time!
You should! And if you do, please reach out to us!
I’ve been trying to get my 51 year old boat ready to travel from TX to Japan for over a year now, and I absolutely love seeing this kind of content from there. I feel like you guys revitalized my drive.
The 飲食しながらの会話はお控えください sign the guy held up at the matsuri was interesting. I never saw that anywhere in Japan and it really cracked me up. 😂

So beautifully shot, and I love those illustrations you added! Now I want to go to Yuge island😂
You should! if you come to Japan, reach out!

Not sure about that! But we do our best. Thanks for watching!
La Vagabonde is heading to Japan as soon as they get some work done.🎉🎉
I live in kanagawa, hope to see you guys.
That'd be great. We live in Tokushima when were are not with the boat.
Patiently waiting for many more videos ! From You , Your Goddess, and your good boat!

@@SailingRamona Hope alls good guys! Seems you have disappeared :(
That was great! Very much looking forward to seeing your travels.
Great music selection too!
New to the channel.. looking forward to your future videos. I would like to sail the Japanese islands one day. Learning Japanese now.
Heheh you should try sailing in UK..we have 6 to 7 metres of tide at springs. We do lots of waiting...
Yeah, very true! I thought about all those double keeled boats beached during low tide when we were making that part of the video! We do have it easy in comparison :)
es hermoso, espero por el proximo, saludos desde Mexico
Gracias Rafael! De hecho, navegaremos a Mexico en Abril-Junio de este próximo año. En tiempo real ya casi hemos acabado la reforma del barco y planeamos navegar por el Golfo de México a modo de '"entrenamiento", para ver si todo está bien, antes de cruzar el Pacífico :)
Y el viaje continua, impresionante, que sepáis que el viaje a Japón se esta estudiando muy seriamente. 😘😘😘
Gracias Goyu! Jaja aquí os esperamos!
Wonderful.
Incredible
Great new channel. Keep it up!
Thanks! Will do!
Amami Oshima , it’s magic.
We have yet to go there, but our friend Lowell has, looks amazing.
It’s a dream of mine to sail in Japan.
Ours too! Well, sail OUR boat in Japan I guess. :)

We're a family with a small 35ft sailing a catamaran in the SF Bay that we plan to bring back slowly to Korea via Japan. Would love to connect!
Wow! Small world. We would love that. Please send us a PM at sailingramona@gmail.com!

hola Chicos, estan bien con el terremoto ?
🇹🇷🇹🇷👍👍
You guys come to Kobe and Osaka
Sometimes, but usually just passing through. We prefer to stay in the rural areas if possible.
Is it possible to sail in Japan, if the only language you know is English? Are the visa rules conducive for Americans to sail in Japan?
It is totally possible! Let us know if you are considering it, we can put you in touch with someone who can help arrange anything you might need when you cruise in Japan.
@@SailingRamona Please share :)
What’s the update for your boat?
Where are you guys?
Repeatedly you show maps with unlabeled bodies of water. Am I supposed to know oceans and seas around Japan based solely on their shape? Do you realize, without labels a map is useless.
Good point. Very true. We will try to add more labels in the coming videos. 👍
Japan is a great place and I boat here regularly as a local, however it is not at all foreign cruiser friendly.
