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
We love it🏋🏻♀️🤟🏋🏻♀️
Thanks :)

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 :)
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
I like it a lot!! Just what you need when its frezzing - looking forward.... to the spring. Just great fun - Viking traditions in Sweden.
