Flipping Our 50 ft Hull By Ourselves - Ep. 396 RAN Sailing

The big day is here, the hull flipping day! Will we make it before the rain comes?!

We are a Swedish family who have sailed the world since 2016 while sharing the adventures here on YouTube. 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!

Sustainable shirts, tees, bags and more in 100% organic cotton, designed by us!

We have collected some of the products we use in our cruising life and video making in our Amazon shop. If you buy any of the items from our shop, we get a small "ka-ching" in our cruising kitty (no extra cost for you). Thank you so much and thank you to Amazon Influencer program.

Thank you for all your sweet comments! 🥰 We’re inviting all our patrons to an open house this summer as well so if you want to come and see the boat IRL, join the crew 😊

Johan is one of those guys that is confident he can do just about anything. And his confidence is properly placed because he is talented, very thoughtful, patient in planning, and humble enough to learn from others. Good job

[carlhamilton]

2 persons for this job! Amazing! Lack words to express how impressed I am.

[leifpettersson]

You guys just earned the 2024 MacGyver award! Awesome work! Respect!

[richardmahan]

Exceptionally well-planned, engineered, and executed. Bravo.

[Spindooly]

All you young people out there, who may be looking to find partners and settle down etc, watch and listen to these two people. This is what a healthy, respectful, loving relationship looks like, 100%.

[TheRaferaf]

That's the coolest project on the internet. There's a guy converting an Old DURACELL race boat into a cruiser, which is cool as well, but building a 50fter from scratch that's on another level.

[richardrichard]

Meticulous planning, execution and then huge sense of exhaustion and mental relief.
With time running out before the onset of rain, it was such a relief when Vera came back to quickly move the hull back under cover.😀😀😀

[DobDog]

Simply amazing. I’ve been watching sailing channels for over 10 years now. This is the most impressive diy engineering feat I’ve ever seen. Congratulations to you both! 👏 👏 👏

[BruceSymons]

I find this more interesting than any of the 200 sailing channels that at sometime all show the same thing, perhaps with the exception of Sailing Florence.

[christopherjones]

Congratulations, you have achieved what I suspect many people thought was impossible. Now onto the next stage (s).

[MS-fovr]

Johan is the man every man wishes they could be, full beast mode but seems such a kind/humble dude!

[kerrymettert]

Your smiles were priceless and they should be. That was an epic turn. Ran III is now upright for the duration of her life. I am so happy for you guys!!!! 🏆🏆🏆

[crustycurmudgeon]

Johan's meticulous planning, and covering for virtually ANY contingency payed off! That was a very smooth hull-flip, with no damages-- or even threats of damages! Smooth as butter! I know it's gratifying knowing the hull is safely back in the barn, flipped, and ready for the next steps. That was incredible!

[ronburton]

Anything Johan can't do? The man is fearless!!

[fabolous]

You two are absolutely incredible. "Everything went according to plan"... Of course it did! What great planning and work.

[timsecord]

Proof that a man or woman can do anything when they set their mind to it. Incredible feat by you both!🇨🇦

[koningbolo]

The procedure looked very professional. There was no doubt in my mind it was to succeed... Well done...

A wise man once said: Congratulations your boat is 70% finished, now get on with the other 70%...

[erichcollar]

First time the hull got wet. Another milestone. I am sooo hooked on this channel.

[cutaway]

I can't believe I'm the only person on the edge of their seat watching this video from the other side of the world! There are no words to describe what the 2 of you did and have done! The intellect, the research, the skill, the tenacity, the drive, the stress, planning, and pushing your hands, arms, shoulders, knees, legs, back, and neck, beyond pain, all culminating in the Perfect Controlled roll of a Hull so big and heavy you look like ants standing next to it!! Halahleuia and Congratulations!! Well have no doubt Vera started the pull back into the barn! Way to go Vera!!🎉❤❤❤
