The Boatyard Blues: A Journey Through Yacht Maintenance
Embark on a voyage through the trials and triumphs of yacht maintenance with Gone with the Wynns in their latest video, aptly titled “The Boat Yard Blues.” This episode dives deep into the world of warranty service, revealing the highs and lows faced by sailors and boat owners alike.
Understanding the Boatyard Blues
The Boat Yard Blues is a term that resonates with both seasoned and novice sailors, reflecting the time-consuming and often daunting task of yacht maintenance. In this episode, Ryan and Nikki Wynns share their own experience, highlighting the typical delays and challenges they encounter.
Unraveling the Warranty Service Struggles
The Wynns find themselves in a common predicament – warranty service for their vessel seems to be stretching on, with no end in sight. Despite initial optimism, they realize that the yard significantly underestimated the time required to complete these tasks.
Leaning on Experience and Patience
Mindful of past experiences, Nikki’s wise words come into play – “double the amount of time that any yard tells you.” Now, they’re thinking triple or even quadruple. This wisdom is their beacon of light during dark days in the boatyard.
The Reality Check
Although challenging, Ryan reminds himself that every phase of the yacht maintenance process always comes to an end. “It always gets better,” he says with hope. The Boat Yard Blues is a cycle they’ve endured and will overcome, as seen in previous episodes.
Reflecting on the Week
This week’s focus has been solely on addressing these warranty issues, with limited room for anything else. Their dedication to resolving the challenges is commendable.
Conclusion and Call to Action
The Boat Yard Blues highlights the need for patience, understanding, and trust in the process of yacht maintenance. For those intrigued by the sailing lifestyle and the trials one might encounter along the way, Gone with the Wynns invites you to join them on their journey.

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
