_______________________________________________________
Our 469 mile passage to the HH factory for warranty work has begun. We can't sail overnight due to all the small fishing vessels and fishing debris that are hard to see during the day, much less at night. And while radar is fantastic, the fishing buoys are just to small to be picked up. Which means we are in for a lot of long days of sailing and hunting for safe anchorages.
We have very little wind predicted, if any at all, and our engines are running hot and drinking coolant like a drought is coming. So our goal is to sail as much as possible and motor as little as possible.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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

Sailing 469 Miles For Warranty Work
Welcome back to the Philippines where Gone with the Wynns are currently sailing. Their journey takes them around the northern tip of Palawan today, not for leisure, but because they need to reach a boat yard urgently for some essential warranty work on their boat. Up until this point, their experience with warranty work has been quite standard – addressing new boat teething issues by taking photos and sending them to HH warranty for feedback.
The Unexpected Challenge
However, their recent discovery during the voyage has given them a bit more urgency to resolve these issues quickly. It was revealed that there’s a coolant leak in their engine – one that is not visible but is progressively disappearing. This revelation adds a sense of urgency and complexity to an already challenging task.
Navigating The Unknown
To reach the boat yard in Subic, they must sail 469 miles. With only a small window of time and limited wind resources at their disposal, every decision made impacts the success of this journey. Gone with the Wynns decide to go as far as the northern tip of Palawan, using their skills to navigate the challenging waters and conditions.
Expert Navigators
Through skillful navigation, careful planning, and utilizing every possible opportunity of wind available, they make significant progress. Their journey showcases their deep understanding of the waters, the weather patterns, and how to use these resources effectively in sailing.
