#BoatRefit #BoatLife #Wildlife
It takes effort to cram a one-hour job into three and finely tuned skills to turn it into a full-day event. Ā Itās the one thing I feel weāre truly gifted at.
This week we were particularly on fire.Ā What was supposed to be a simple job of going up the mast to swap out the radar dome turned into a full-blown wildlife rescue and rehabilitation mission.
Turns out, you never know what youāre going to find up there.
WHO ARE WE?
Weāre Jason and Nikki Wynn. We been living #OffTheGrid and exploring the world for 10 years.
Our first six years of travel were an epic road trip around North America.
Now weāre on a sailing voyage about the world. Did we have any previous sailing experience, of course not!
Neither of us is overly talented, smart, rich, lucky, or retired. But that doesnāt stop us from reaching far-flung destinations, having wild adventures and managing everything that makes living aboard a moving vessel possible.
Weāre two ordinary people that just so happen to live an extraordinary life.
And this is why we publish our lives on the world wide web. We share in hopes of inspiring you to find your adventure.
