We've tested, learned, and challenged almost every idea we've had about life at sea. And somewhere between the engine rooms, stabilizers, and wind generators, we discovered what really matters for our next chapter. This isn’t just about finding a boat, it’s about choosing the right tool for the adventure ahead. One strong enough for icy fjords, self-sufficient enough for remote destinations, and (hopefully) small enough that we can still handle it just the two of us. ___________________________ 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 Sailing So Many Vessels 01:13 Range and Reliability 01:54 Secondary Motor Backup 03:24 Hybrid Electric is the Best 03:48 Fuel Economy of a Motor Yacht 05:07 Maximizing Fuel Economy of a Yacht 05:22 Internet Chaos 06:55 Comfort and Capability – The Right Boat for the Adventure 07:52 Perfect Yacht Size – Price, Maintenance, Capability & Handling 09:50 Touring Boats of All Sizes Back-to-Back 10:50 Monohull vs Catamaran – Stabilizers are AMAZING! 12:18 Perfect Cold Weather Tender 13:33 What’s Next for Us? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #BoatLife #exploreryacht #sailboat #LifeStyle #Travel © Gone With the Wynns 2025
