Time For Some Warranty Work

Warranty Work In The Philippines
Gone with the Wynns continues to explore the northern tip of Palawan Province in the Philippines, a location known for its beautiful islands and clear waters. However, as they prepare for their journey ahead, they realize it’s time to do some much-needed warranty work on their boat.
An Ongoing Shakedown Period
The Wynns have owned and lived aboard Curiosity for three months now, sailing over 1200 nautical miles. During this time, they’ve encountered several teething issues that need to be addressed before their next big journey.
Exploring Underwater Wonders
In addition to dealing with the boat’s maintenance, Josh goes on a free diving adventure near some rocky outcrops. The group discovers good coral and several little places to explore while appreciating the beautiful underwater world.
Time for Warranty Work
The team discusses their options for hauling the boat out of water and having it serviced properly. They have planned to do this in one bulk, including a visit to Sabo Island.
Preparing for a Long Sail
The Wynns anticipate spending five days straight motoring due to lack of wind. They prioritize ensuring that their engines will function properly during this long journey.
Making Important Decisions
As they weigh their options, the group decides to consult with HH for further guidance. The team aims to make a final decision about where they’ll go next after discussing things further.
Celebrating With a Mexican Fiesta
Despite the heat and humidity, the Wynns and their friends enjoy a delicious Mexican feast. The shrimp, peppers, onions, coconut rice, beans, soda, and chips make for a delightful meal that helps them cool down.

After three months and 1200+ nautical miles sailed, we've given CURIOSITY one heck of a shakedown cruise. But as with any boat and especially a new boat, we have racked up a nice list of warranty work we need to sort out.
At this point we were a little on the fence about where to go:
Subic - The team at Asia Pacific Marine had taken such good care of us when we were there. We trust them and their work and it was only a few hundred miles away.
Cebu - HH Catamarans has recently set up a second factory here and naturally, would prefer we come to them. But they haven't finished building their dock, haul out facility or marina. So they had to verify they could actually make the haul out happen.
Join us as we say goodbye to El Nido and set sail for a boat yard. And it's as if CURIOSITY knows she's headed in for repairs. Because she starts coughing up more work to add to the list. #BoatLife

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

Gone with the Wynns
Hello. We’re Jason and Nikki Wynn, a couple of explorers, modern-day documentarians, and cultivators of curiosity. We believe Curiosity is the key to unlocking life. It’s what pushes us outside our comfort zone, softens our assumptions and helps us embrace the great unknown. The future is a sea of uncertainty and each of us has a choice: to focus on problems or possibilities. Our goal is to cultivate a sense of curiosity about what is possible. “Every explorer I have met has been driven—not coincidentally but quintessentially—by curiosity, by a single-minded, insatiable, and even jubilant need to know.” ― Jacques-Yves Cousteau You can learn a lot more about us on our website: https://gonewiththewynns.com
