We half expected to be layered up and miserable. Instead we're debating whether to turn the heat down. So this week we're bringing you aboard for our first taste of winter boat life. Show you all the details that make the difference (and the one thing we're still struggling with). ----------------- WE’RE JASON AND NIKKI WYNN. A couple of explorers, modern-day documentarians, and cultivators of curiosity. We’ve been chasing our curiosity around the world on wheels and keels since 2011. Why? Because curiosity is the key to unlocking life. It pushes us outside our comfort zone, softens our assumptions, and helps us embrace the great unknown. The more we let our curiosity lead the way, the more we discover about ourselves and the world around us. Things We're Most Curious About... GETTING OFF-GRID Our home is also our transportation and we spend weeks away from civilization and sometimes land. So self-reliance and sustainable living are a must. We've learned heaps about renewable energy, managing waste, creating safe drinking water and foraging for food. We carefully manage our resources and we’re always looking for new and better ways to do so. TALKING TO STRANGERS People are busy (even on remote islands) and travelers are a dime a dozen. It takes time to talk to strangers, and even more time to have a real connection. Going the extra mile to get to know someone is a commitment. Which is why these are our most treasured experiences. Setting off into the world with curiosity as our guide and nature as our compass. We talk to strangers and accept hospitality without fear or reservations. Both giving and receiving. ALTERNATIVE LIVING These are people who are doing things differently. Forgoing the mainstream, seeking freedom and living on the margins. Creative, unique and inspiring people who challenge our ideas of home and community. Our journey is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity Timestamps if you like to Jump Around: 00:00 Freezing Boat Life 01:04 Exterior Features to Keep the Boat from Freezing 05:30 Freezing Temperatures Will Destroy a Boat 08:10 Radiant Diesel Heating Everywhere 12:34 Electric Backup Heating 13:10 How to Fight Condensation on a Boat 19:38 Cabin and Head Heating Ventilation 20:29 Moment of Hygge 22:54 What Makes an Explorer Yacht? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #Travel #BoatLife #LifeStyle #Adventure #exploreryacht #Sailing #Curiosity #trawler © Gone With the Wynns 2026
