WE’RE JASON AND NIKKI WYNN. A couple of modern-day documentarians, perpetual travelers, and seekers of tall tales.
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.
Our home is also our transportation and we spend weeks away from civilization and sometimes land. Self-reliance and living a sustainable lifestyle are a must. It's all about managing our resources and we’re always looking for new and better ways to do so.
We've lived off the grid for over 10 years now in everything from a Van to RV to a Sailboat. And over time we have learned a lot about renewable energy, creating safe drinking water, and managing our waste.
Our journey is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity

Yes please- we'd like to hear your rationale for registering in the Marshall Islands. We are thinking of doing the same but would like to validate our assumptions.
Yes, please.
How does your SAR work if registered in a place like Marshall Is.? As I understand it, if you activate your EPIRB, the signal gets routed to the SAR authority in your country of ships registration, and they co-ordinate rescue resources, even if you are not in their territorial waters. Does that happen with the Marshall Islands?
Merchant ships are built overseas regestered in countries like Panama Marshall Islands , which are flags of convenience for tax puposes, etc Much of the crew is foreign (Which makes it harder for guys like us who want to work on an ocean ship, no lakers) That is a broader response since the WYNNS are all American :) But, it all has to do with less regestration requirements, taxes, et
Please tell.
I also read that you are able to have two boats with the same boat name, provided the boat is registered under a different registering authority. Great that you are finally back on the water, may your adventures satiate our curiosity too!
Yes, please a video on why boats register home port in marshal islands, or wherever...... Thanks
Yes, I’d be interested in this too, please
me too👍
@@sallybowman1581 -- yes, maybe property rights are actually respected in these Island Nations as opposed to the _Modern West!?!_
Yes please do that. We are interested too. 😊
@@sallybowman1581 same same?
personally Ill never own a boat but watching you guys for 15 to 30 minutes a week gives me all the joy's of ever owning one, I'm so thankful for what you have to offer , you have given so much back to the boating community !
Agreed 👍
What was the total cost of your build?
I'm a confirmed Charter sailor. The commitment reinforced by every contorted turn of the wrench, that I know I could never do myself. But your freedom of movement and ability to be where you want to be, even though biological warfare tried to intervene.
Nice boat, have a grand time showing the nicer side of the Stars and Stripes folks to many new friends worldwide, just like we see here. Fair skies and following seas,
C
You two have more guts than a slaughter house. Going from a $500K vessel to a $2 Million vessel, with all the new systems and technologies would be overwhelming for most sailors. Screaming along at 8 knots just lost it’s place on the SOG scale. I applaud your bravery and look forward to watching your new adventures.
HH built you an awesome boat!
I have seen people have problems for 2 years on a new build.
HH has it together.
I do wonder how different their experience is due to the high visibility, but this is a leading edge build and it is VERY impressive to get so much right!
"Infant mortality" is commonly the biggest quality problem on such high end builds.
Who’s that had problems with there build
@@joeldelamirande5792 the new leopards and the Neil's have majore issues. Look em up
On hull #3... that is impressive.
Easily the best sailing show on Web...Congratulations Curiosity and Gone with the Wynns.
I cried as well when Jason said on the last video “ I never dreamed I’d own a boat like this”. I have been lucky enough to have a dream realized as well. I’m so very excited for you two and can’t wait for the tour.
It took a lot of compromise and acceptance to get where they are.
boats are a pain in the butt
I was wondering about your registration change, too. I'd love to learn more about the reasons the Marshall Islands is a frequently used location. Maybe if you feel it's too much for 1 specific video you could make some little segments that could be added to your main video.
And again, Super, Mega, Ginormous CONGRATULATIONS on your new floating home! I hope she brings you many #Wynning adventures!!
Nikki, a solution for your mini movie theater: 1) Projector: Contact Riley and Elayna over at "Sailing La Vagabonde". They showcased a marine-portable projector worthy of consideration. If you see a Rapido-built orange trimaran somewhere around the So.China Sea, it's probably them. 2) Screen: I suggest making this out of a 4 ft x 8 ft x 1/8-in sheet of UV-stabilized polycarbonate (Lexan, Makrolon, etc. -- available from sheet stock industrial plastics suppliers even H/H might know of). Cut to fit, then sand the projection face using 400-800 grit fine sandpaper to have an evenly diffuse surface, then hinge this to the ceiling along one long edge. To stow, use an adhered velcro grip to hold it flush with the ceiling. This is simple, waterproof, and easy to clean when doing a deck wash. Save any leftover sheet stock for other possible boat projects.
Blessings, S/V Windwalker
The Anker Nebula projectors are the best options if you want a projector you can use on the beach, they've got batteries and internal memory space for movies. Not super high end but the high end ones that are portable are ridiculously expensive.
Watching from my motorhome in the AZ desert wilderness. You two are my Sunday ritual. I am so happy to see how relaxed and calm you both are out on the water again. I can just feel your stress floating away!
Send video!
I've been following you both and being a Patreon for over 5yrs. I'm really happy for you both and I can't wait to see all the new adventures that you bring us. The boat looks amazing, and it will make your life at sea much more comfortable. I really wish you both all the very best on your new adventures.
You might want to consider a portable spandex projector screen for your projector. This product is super light, inexpensive, and can be packed into a very small size. You can easily attach using suction hooks, then remove them when not in use.
Having spent my childhood on sailboats, I derive a sense of living vicariously through your adventures. Safe travels.
Such a great idea!!
A great suggestion and very cheap. They can buy the size and make a fold away frame themselves.
Definitely interested of hearing the registration things!
Amazing boat and the regen is impressive!
Drop down Movie night: Glue Metal or Neodymium magnets, paint ceiling color. Get projection screen, get it to magnetize to all those key places, get a good quality projector and enjoy movies. Get bug screens, window covering to keep dark. Enjoy!
Yeah, when it comes to projectors - ambient light is going to be a big issue. So high Lumens + resolution + Hz + price range?? I dunno.
Hello Jason and Nikki, I figured I'll put my two cents in on projectors. I can't say for marine grade, but I currently use a Epson Home Cinema 1060 and from the years that I have had it haven't had many complaints. The only suggestion is if you go for a projector always keep a spare lamp bulb for it cause they can blow without warning sometimes.
So happy for you guys. This was a long time coming and it's great to see you finally getting back into things.
Re the projector, we have a Nebula Laser projector. It’s small but powerful, and puts out a great picture. It also stores away really well into a small space. For the screen we did a pop-up screen rather than a pull-down screen that needs to be hung or mounted. When we sail or race our house, all the home-stuff, including the projector screen can be stowed and it’s light. We got fourth in a double-handed race just today! And tonight we’ll celebrate with a movie on a big screen!
Congrats! 🎉🎉

Wanted to recommend the Nebula Laser Capsule as well. I've been impressed with their projectors and own the larger portable 4k laser model, but for the sailboat I think the Laser Capsule would be great.
You two are oozing joy. That's what a positive attitude gives in bucket loads. Curiosity is perfect and you are both deserving of her beauty and capabilities ... happy cruising.
So happy to hear you've been here! Long time Filipina fan here! Good winds and safe travels always!
You already are super chill and super fit!! You have handled all of this so well. Congrats on your beautiful boat!
I would love to hear about why you registered in Bikini, AND bikinis! (make sure to use lots of visuals!) Super stoked for you guys right now. It's been one long journey, but a new one is just beginning! Safe sailing! Cheers
You know bikini atoll was among other islands there where they were testing nuclear bombs after ww2. I watched a series on those islands, and all metal objects and coconuts and plant life is still full of radiation. So be careful where you go and what you eat, fish. Pull it up on the internet.
Thank god this turned out to be a new boat happy experience. I don’t think I could have taken another Sailing TH-camr ‘new boat unhappy’ episode like Nick and Terysa’s! I think your experience is a testament to the depth of planning and thought you’ve put in to the decisions you made. Well done - you deserve your happiness - and I’m as envious as hell! 😂
Big contrast to what Ruby Rose 2 whent through their first weeks!!! I have always felt that HH is top notch 😊
Despite what they think RR are very green.. The new boat emphasizes this.
Congrats guys!! It’s a beautiful boat!!
I am so glad for the two of you getting your new home. I know how you guys delt with 2 years. You two need to hug each other as such a wounderful thing came together for you. Buy the way this is Don the old guy. Don sends!!!!!
Such a lovely boat, you guys are fantastic! You have been through the wringer & came out the other side nicely pressed! You have nothing but wonderful days ahead and it couldn't happen to nicer people. You share so much of yourselves that it is so good that you take time to settle in and enjoy your beautiful new home. I've watched you for years and ALWAYS enjoy your content. Beautiful people making beautiful vlogs. Nicely done your two!
Sooo happy for you both I've been watching for 4 years now and I'm all caught up on the past videos you have come so far I started watching during a difficult time in my life and you have just gotten me through it by enjoying your posts so this feels sweet for me as well because you have a special place in my life getting through the loss of a husband and your videos have allowed me to just forget about things for a short time each week and to see you in the new boat makes me so happy 😊
So far, loving the new boat. 1. Am wanting to know about the makeup (or make) of the mattresses, 2. Love the idea of the induction cook top. A) do you like how it cooks? B) how do you hold pots steady in rough seas? C) You fought over whether or not to get a dishwasher, and moaned about the price, 1. does it work well, 2. Was it worth it?
We make the mattress here at HH. It is a plastic spring mattress so they can bend to be fit inside the cabin doors and they will not rust. Highly breathable memory foam on the top. It's the highest quality mattress we can provide and they come standard on all of our models. Thanks for asking. We will let the Wynns comment on your other questions, although the pots are held in place by a mat (that's all that is needed)!
Thanks for that @HHCatamarans! I was curious about the mattress as well.
As for the rest, Nikki and Jason have been cooking on induction since RV days, and love it. Cats don't heel as much as monohulls, so keeping pans in place isn't too difficult. I have seen videos with Nikki cooking where she sticks a silicone mat under one side of the pot to help hold it still when the boat's rocking. You can also do that to help regulate heat under the pan. More about why they love induction can be found here: th-cam.com/video/ZkEtbyka7KY/w-d-xo.html And I'm sure we'll get a report on how the dishwasher's performing soon!
Curious Minion
as a mattress maker i always make them 25mm narrower both sides and at the top to solve the sheet problem you're having. well worth the effort to have the foam walls sliced down and recut the cover
I’m a watching from Annapolis, Maryland USA… it’s all over the news about a retired couple from the USA who were sailing in the Caribbean, whose catamaran was hijacked and they were killed, so please be careful.. I thought of you both when that was all over the news..
Take care 🙏🏼
Personally i would be more concerned with all the violence that is happening in America at the moment. What happened to the couple in the Caribbean was really sad to hear, but it's not an everyday event. The amount of shootings, car jacking, home invasion, mass shooting and the list goes on makes sailing in the Caribbean very safe.
@@spacewalktraveller1 ....Really? How many sailing yachts are on the ocean total. Maybe 50,000 ? In the Carribbean, maybe 5,000 ? Now, how many people live in the USA... 250,000,000 ? The ratio of violence is much, much lower in America, per capita. Stop spreading unfounded drama and false information.... and definitely STOP watching FOX fake news.
@@HappyBuddhaBoyd Actually there are over 330 million people in the US, not 250 million, please don't tell me you live in the US and don't know the population. Can you please let me know where you got the Numbers of 50,000 yachts in the world and 5,000 in the Caribbean. Just in Europe there are about 6 million boats kept in European waters and there are about 10,000 mariners that provide about 1 million berths, fact check on European Boating Industry (EBI). Note, that is just in Europe. Do you know there are about 195 countries on planet earth and about 8 Billion people live on planet earth
The US has the highest homicide rate for developed countries and has for decades. It's much higher than other advanced nations, please fact check this. No I don't watch FOX news either and never have. It does sound like the news you watch, is really feed your mind with rubbish, and not facts or figures.
Now Happy Little Budha, you may want to go and stand in the Mirror and ask who really is spreading false information, and you may just realize if you have any self awareness, that you are projecting yourself onto others. Please stop spreading false information. I wish you all the very best.
So glad your back in your beautiful new boat..
Look forward to all your adventures xxx
Dearest Nikki & Jason, I’m sitting here on the Eve of my 55th Birthday, watching your video for the second time & I’m crying tears of joy for you’s. Your Sailboat like you’s is truly Amazing. Keep winning Wynns Thank you so much 💚💚💚 💙💙💙
I want to hear your Bikini Atoll Marshall Island reasoning. I think I know but, I want to be sure. I hear there was one hell of an ALAKABLAM there not too long ago. Do they accept asylum seekers? "RMI citizenship recognized by other nations". Not a trick question, perked my curiosity as you two often do. We all know you will record during this week you desperately need by yourselves.
I absolutely loved following on your last boat and so glad that we get to get back into the groove of boatlife again. Your boat is beautiful!
The new boat is absolutely beautiful. Congrats!
Glad to see everything is working well. Your smiles say it all. Enjoy your new home and some down time. Cheers!
This is exciting. Congratulations on your new home. Enjoy digging into all your boat is and settling into your new home. See you in a few weeks.
It's awesome to see you two having a seemingly lovely, chill, sail on the new boat.
Good luck on the projector for movie night!
You are obviously happy. So glad for you both.
Been watching since the RV days. So happy and excited for you. Happy boating.
Lovely episode, so informative, you both seem very happy to finally get a chance to enjoy each other and sail again. Thanks!
Congratulations on the new boat. It's incredible 👏🏽👏🏽💪🏾💪🏾👍👍⛵️⛵️🍷🥃🍷🥃☕️☕️☕️❤️❤️🌎🌍🌏
I love your videos, so glad everything is smooth sailing for you. I think a lot of it is because you both are so organized and thorough with everything. You work together as a great team. 🎉
So happy for you two. Just love watching your channel and seeing your happiness and positivity! Keep posting! From Sharbot Lake, Ontario!
Love, Love, Love the new boat! I also love having just the two of you on board again. It's so much more relaxed with just the two of you. I always look forward to your adventures.
Super stoked for y’all! Been watching since the camper days and now just as hooked on the sailing…both passions of mine. It’s so great to have honest living and adventures to share with the world. Thank you and Keep the wind at your back!!
YOU'RE HERE !!! 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭..Hope you have a GREAT Stay..lots of Beautiful beaches here.. Congratulations on your successful crossing 👍👍👍💪💪💪👏👏👏👏👏
So excited that your new boat is so amazing. Yes, take a week and take care of yoursleves.
You guys inspire sailors everywhere! Love the channel
Really happy for you guys…..enjoy your honeymoon phase on the boat, it’s a beauty!
CONGRATULATIONS.
Two of You at Last. ENJOY!
Excellent choice of hull color and all colors on the boat. Nice job Nikki. Super jelly!❤
I’ll add my congratulations to the others: I’m so happy for you both and for the blessing you two have enjoyed in the process of waiting for and receiving that beautiful boat. I applaud you taking time to settle into routines and getting your life aboard settled. Thanks so much for taking time to tell us your story and for not trying to hide the challenges you’ve faced since you started the process two years ago. You’re both delightful people and my wife and I enjoy watching your videos on Sunday afternoons. Blessings on the Wynns and on Curiosity II!
So cool that it's all come to fruition.
I look forward with anticipation to seeing your future journeys ❤
Hi! I know you're excited to be sailing again, but selfishly, I'm stoked for more SAILING adventures (finally!). Some channels have faster boats, some boats have a bit longer lineage, but none has a cuter/happier crew. It was easy to fall in love with Nikki immediately, and to his credit, Jason consistently proves he's an amazing guy. Well done you two!
I love how you guys impart information.....thanks...
What I can't help but notice are your smiles and downright giddy grins. That in itself speaks volumes. Sort of reminds me when my students solo an airplane for the first time, it is just this smile of pure joy, and relief that you just can't help. You grin so uncontrollably that it actually starts to hurt after a while! That's what it looks like to me for you two. What an incredible journey to get where you both are now. I too would have a grin plastered on my face 24x7! Relax, and bask in your accomplishment. Really, really happy for the both of you! It's been fun to watch.
So glad you mentioned where you were registered through. I was having trouble finding you on the marine tracking app.
Congrats! Can’t wait to see what adventures you two get into with your beautiful new boat!
Your new boat looks amazing...
WOOHOOOOOO!!!!
So happy for you two. Here’s to many more sailing adventures. Congrats. ❣️
I talk about you guys at work and to my family like you both lived just down the street, I went to work and said the Wynn's finally got to get on to their boat and everyone was like the who lol. I showed them the video and they absolutely loved it, I absolutely love to see the both of you smiling on your own boat and so relaxed. Many happy vibes and prayers your way for many, many more years of sailing and adventures,!
6:30 Congrats to you both...!!! 🥳🥳🥳 Be Proud...!! Beautiful boat. Carpe Diem..!!!
You guys look so relaxed now that you are home again. Bring on the new adventures!
Yup! SO happy to see you on a boat again. Congrats.
You guys look great on your new boat - congratulations! So nice to see you back on the water.
Congratulations on the new boat. Best wishes and safe sailing.
So happy to see you back on the water! Happy sailing and I look forward to coming along from snowy cold Canada!
Glad you like the new boat!
Love matching your shirt with the boat! Incredible color all around
So glad you all are back in business! Following your sailing adventures in how I got hooked on you a couple of years ago. Can't wait to see what you all are up to next as I live vicariously through you all:)
Nice boat! Congrats n all that stuff. Retired home theater installer. Perhaps an overhead projector mounted just inside the cabin, on a swivel, to rotate in all direction, specifically fore n aft as Nicky suggests,,a roll down screen mobile so you can mount aft or fore. You could possibly mount the projector to retract into the ceiling, if space allows, or just hang there, since it'll be out of the way. Your biggest challenge would be speaker placement. Switchable permanently mounted in both viewing areas would be ideal. Good luck.
Glad you 2 arrived safe and sound.
Congratulations. It looks fabulous. Love the colors. Great work.
Congratulations! So glad to see you guys finally back on the sea
Big congratulations! So happy for you both!
So happy for you all....that is a beautiful boat and it's so well appointed...
So so excited for you guys !!!! I love your new boat.. SO MUCH !!!! Can’t wait , but you guys also need rest - don’t get sick 😊
Hello my darlings!
I'm just so happy, having watched your vlog from the beginning of Curiosity, plus, that you're feeling good in your new waterborne home!❤❤

I am so happy for your guys. Enjoy your new SV.
Curiosity is a beautiful boat! Love the design the layout and the decor. So happy for you. Well done 💕
It is so cool to see you guys sailing again! I love your new boat. May. You have many adventures aboard Curiousity

Happy to see you guys in the new boat, living the dream so to speak.
Really glad to see you both finally home. The boat looks fantastic. Jason glad to see that your shirt matches the boat 😉
Congrats on the new home. Love to see what is in store for your next chapter.
I have been following you from the very beginning. What a tribute to you that I am as excited for this new beginning as if you are brand new to me…and that is not so for everyone I follow….cannot wait to see what is just around the corner! Your filming is superb, energy palatable, and you continue to give this world hope and decency!
Congratulations guys , you made it !
You should be very proud of yourself !
Fair winds and following seas
Congrats guys and thank you for the last 2 years of awesome quality videos. You've managedd to keep us entertained and interested during the non-sailing time.
Luv your new boat,and can't wait to see the boat tour. Again Congratulations.
This Boat is so nice ! Love it !
It is great to see you guy’s back on the water, congratulations!!
So Happy to see you back out on your own boat. Wishing you Fair Winds and Following Seas, as you start adventuring again, and taking uß scv all along with you. ❤
You made it! So happy for the two of you🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉enjoy! what a beautiful place to anchor! The boat is just awesome!
Can't wait for the boat tour!
MABUHAY! Welcome to the Philippines!
I can't describe how happy I am for the two of you to be back on the water in your new boat (which is absolutely beautiful!). Though it's been 40 years for me since my last visit, I hope you enjoy the beauty, culture, amazing food and, most importantly, the wonderful people of the Philippines, as I did.
Looks really good!
Yes projector and screen!
Try and slow down for a couple of weeks! Getting to know living on your boat is very helpful to bonding with your boat.
