BACK TO BOAT LIFE (our daily routine on the sea)
Now that the excitement (chaos) of splashing the boat and immediately preparing for cyclones has passed, we’re slowly getting back to our familiar routines of living a life on the sea.

WHO ARE WE?
We’re 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 we’re 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 doesn’t stop us from reaching far-flung destinations, having wild #adventures and managing everything that makes living aboard a moving vessel possible.
We’re 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.

First vid of 2021, thanks for being a part of it with us! In this crazy, uncertain, and movement restricted world, it’s important to take delight and pleasure in our daily lives as much as the adventures. For those looking for information/vids on our solar and off-grid setup, you will find that here: www.gonewiththewynns.com/living-off-grid-rv-sailboat Also, wanted to take a moment to answer a couple of the most common questions. 🤗 ❔ “I’m curious how long were you able to stay underwater before you left the islands? And now, how long are you able to stay under?” 🗨2 min was our average before leaving the boat. Now, we’re out of practice and 1:15 is our best. Recipe for the smoothie 🍨: Shredded coconut, banana, papaya, pineapple, frozen coconut cream, ginger, cinnamon, cacao powder, water. ❔“Why aren’t you collecting rainwater” 🗨We are! That’s what the buckets on the transom are for. 😎 ❔ “Try JB weld on the cracked stanchion” 🗨the steel stick we mentioned is a JB weld product

How do you guys navigate and travel during Covid?? What’s the plan/startegy? Is it now super slow, changing countries every 1-2 months instead a couple of days here and there? This would be an interesting topic for people planning to leave their country for more freedom on the ocean. I’m just not sure HOW MUCH more freedom you have on a boat vs. on land. Some insight would be awesome! Thanks and keep doing what u guys are doin.

A few of the countries are putting restrictions back. Panama last I had heard had tightened up, full curfews, and other restrictions. I wish they would get the vaccinations out a little more smoothly but the Pfizer Vaccine with its temp profile is ridiculous .

Nikki, when are you gonna put together a cookbook!?
Why not collect rainwater for cleaning?
Just rewatched your Marquesas video where you had the allergic reaction to taro leaves. I live in Hawaii and yes, many people have elevated reaction to certain taro leaves though never seen one as bad as what you had. You also said that you may be allergic to mango skins. That's also a common thing here but it is not the skin of the mango. It is the mango sap that causes a reaction. As long as you don't touch the sap, you'll be ok.
Would love to see more what you eat in a day
Great video!
You are the best
You two have gotten really weird being on land too long! I still love your videos! Glad to see you’re back in your natural element.

You guys are fun to watch. Love your videos. Thanks. Glad you are back on your boat.
"Soften our assumptions" Well said. Especially for a couple of overanalyzers like you and me. You guys had my attention from "tea with a nature's head" 6 or so years ago, which backed me up to I Love (the letter) "U". A lifetime adventurist, sailor, innovator myself, I was never one to spend much time watching ALthe. I think you where my first subscription. 2020 was definitely a learning year for many of us that have the never quit attitudes.. Good to see you on the water. BTW overanalyzers is a compliment to intelligent people like you guys. Many High-IQ People Tend to Be Overthinkers: They Incessantly Overanalyze Everything There’s this old Zen parable that relates how over-analysis is a common attribute of intelligent people. A Zen master was resting with his quick-witted disciple. At one point, the master took a melon out of his bag and cut it in half for the two of them to eat. In the middle of the meal, the enthusiastic disciple said, “My wise teacher, I know everything you do has a meaning. Sharing this melon with me may be a sign that you have something to teach me.” The master continued eating in silence. “I understand the mysterious question in your silence,” insisted the student. “I think it is this: the excellent taste of this melon that I am experiencing … is the taste on the melon or on my tongue …” The master still said nothing. The disciple got a bit frustrated at his master’s apparent indifference. The disciple continued, ” … and like everything in life, this too has meaning. I think I’m closer to the answer; the pleasure of the taste is an act of love and interdependence between the two, because without the melon there wouldn’t be an object of pleasure and without pleasure …” “Enough!” exclaimed the master. “The biggest fools are those who consider themselves the most intelligent and seek an interpretation for everything! The melon is good; please let this be enough. Let me eat it in peace!”
Gosh, that's a beautiful life
T la meilleur, on t adore ???
Wow simple is so great . We love spending time on the boat just floating . AND EVERYTHING IS WORKING

There are probably more coconuts floating in the water than boats! They fall in, break apart, wash up all the time. Curious Minion
You have come full circle back to 'life on the boat' in the middle of a pandemic!
Moving lots of files on WIndows? Google an app called Teracopy, it'll make it sooooo much easier.
Stanchion base Fix: use a hose clamp to hold it together. Not pretty, but will prevent it from getting worse. And might hold better if you fall against it.
I'd give anything to be somewhere hot again.
Hey you can make coconut candy with your left over coconut
a couple of pilgrims, on there Banana Boat
I love nikkis hair short like this! Also love the “boring days”

A couple of hose clamps on that stanchion base would be a good temporary fix..
You guys are fun to watch. Love your videos. Thanks. Glad you are back on your boat.
Ice freezes “solid” is the word you were looking for, not hard.
Nice video, especially fun to watch after a crazy day. Thanks for all the effort putting it together and posting!
"Tap into your inner MacGyver" Ha ha, That's Gold!!
You should do more of these. It is very relaxing
never feel bad of the normal days content. it's fun and relaxing watching you two do anything and everything. you can just lay there for 3 hours and do absolutely nothing and I'd still enjoy it. Peace!! :)
What was the funnel/strainer thing you used on the water tank and where did you find it?
Thank you both, the curry was a 10 and so was my last 27:35!
I enjoyed that. Thanks for taking us along. - Ben
Do you upload all your videos to storage in the cloud like OneDrive with the hard drives as redundancy?
It’s what you call a bitter sweet.
Dream life.. Thank You both!!
By the way, how did you learn to sail?

Head over to the sailing page on the blog and click on the "sailing school" tab. When you're done with those, there's a tab on the whole shopping experience, a tour of the boat, costs, and much more! It's the go-to place with all the answers. www.gonewiththewynns.com/sailing Curious Minion
You guys are inspiring me. I just need to convince the wife but she'll come round..
Put a couple of steel hose clamps on the Stanchion base until you can get a proper repair. Not idea but it should help.

just put a hose clamp on the broken stanchion base and let'r rip another month or so. :D
That was cool, liked the bloopers at the end
Kia Ora team. Best thing I did was install a saltwater pump and run it to the galley as well as the deck & anchor wash. Now I use much less fresh water, rinse dishes in salt as well as boil potatoes etc all in clean salt but not when in marina! Rog
Your cat has come up looking great. What did you use on your acrylic side windows to make them gleam like that?
Enjoy watching you guys live "out there" that food looked tasty and hot! Blessings!
Happy 2021 and Thank you so much for sharing your lives and adventures with us.
Love this video. Jason was in rare form. I almost snorted my coconut water. Hoping for a good year for you.
Wondering if the alarm clock is really necessary???
Yes actually, we do have a question. Do you use a NAS (Network Attached Storage) for bulk digital storage? If not why not? You guys seem like the type that would have one. I recently added one to our yacht and it is life changing for storing everything digital. Great videos guys. Keep it up.
Do you ever keep parts of the exterior coconut for your composting toilet?
Very nice episode. You are living well, and your positive approach to these trying times is heartening. Thanks.
Put a radiator hose clamp on the stantion, them wrap it with black electrical tape
👌❤️😊
i love the "slow tv" feeling in this episode. the broken railing you can reinforce with a hoseclamp
Cholula! Crowd favorite in our home!! Be safe!

Pumpkin curry recipe?

Oh well back to the lawns - Lucky buggers - Fairwinds
Jason, Niki always looking forward to watch what next for you guys. I have a suggestion for your broken mount. try a worm screw clamp(Radiator hose clamp) on your bracket that will probably do the trick until you can get a new piece or get it welded
For the Stanchion base a stainless hose clamp or two would probably make a great sturdy temp repair for you. Might have already been mentioned already but I didn't feel like scrolling through 1700 comments to check :) Cheers guys, good to see you back on your boat!
Excellent as usual!!!
I like your day. It’s a good life filled with those days.
You could do a temporary fix on that cracked rail mount. JB Weld or something similar in the cracks and then use a stainless hose clamp to clamp it down. Cover that in a little JB Weld. Should hold and keep it from cracking further until you can get a replacement.
My favorite part was the bloopers at the end, I just LOVE seeing you guys getting back in the groove and the behind the scenes bc I KNOW THAT FEEL hahhahaa!! You guys continue to be awesome, soooo happy you're back on the water!
Jason, Get hard drive enclosures with USB 3.0. They are 10 times faster than USB 2.0 Detail: You need to connect to your computers USB 3.0 port, and you has to use a USB 3.0 cable, the 2.0 ones won't work. If you use change to SSD hard drives you hard drives will become 10 times faster than normal mechanical hard drives.
Back in the saddle again!
Might try a hose clamp on that stanchion as a temp fix
Good to see you back on the water and enjoying yourself. The production value of your videos is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome as always
So where are you going to post your videos other than Google owned ALthe?
why u prefer windows laptop than macbook ?
I laugh every time Nikki "cleans up" something that Jason says.
Just curious, what is the make and model of your cat?

Nice to see things getting back to normal (whatever that is). Thanks for sharing, nice to have you back.
You know Jason Nikki is your soul mate. Such a lovely lady. Bless you both. OH bay the way your a great man too. Bless you both.
by the way have you seen your bat lately
I,M SO GLAD TO SEE YOU BACK HOME Love you kids be safe be strong don,t ever give up. you two are the best. Love you .
Happy new year💕
Look into the new ARM based Macbooks, they are SUPER lean on power and very powerful. I know you are on windows, but I'm on an air and it's super lean at sipping power and more powerful than my last Macbook pro from 2015 ... the next macbook pro's in 2021 will be even more powerful.
Well done the Wynn's.Keep it up,enjoy life ,have fun ,life is still an adventure even in these times.God bless.
Those cracked brackets look like a job for JB Weld and then wrap a hose clamp around each to take the load.
SteelStik is amazing! 😎
Fantastic.
I have a question, all Boats are different and they all have their own little good and bad points. Can I ask you what's the one thing on your boat that could not do without? Just pretend for a second you bought a new boat, what is that thing that is a must have for a new boat that's on Curiosity?
JB weld
I've been watching for years going back to the van life and all your life decisions. But this is the first video where I get the feeling the grind of everyday upkeep/maintenance of keeping a boat sea ready and the inability to handle issues as they pop up due to your location it starting to wear on the both of you. I get this feeling that there's a major decision coming from you two and it will involve Curiosity and the Wynns moving on to land based adventure not water based........ Just a feeling but one that would not be surprising due to the nature of the sailing world today, COVID19 and the inability to sail freely and anywhere you see fit! What ever the decision I thank you for the many years of adventure and what ever you decide to do (continue sailing or opt for something else) I will follow! It has been a pleasure and totally entertaining watching you two live life to the fullest! God Bless TC Boyle Ahwatukee Arizona USA
"leave your comment down below" will never be the same..
where do i find that strainer that holds cheesecloth?
I love nikkis hair short like this! Also love the “boring days”
Jason, 😂😂 glad to see you guys back on the water❤️.
I enjoy seeing everyday moments. Those are the best.

I've wondered if the average liveaboard sailor worries a bit less about stuff like politics. Whatever happens where you're anchored you can just hoist sails and bugger off to the other side of the planet where the sun is shining and people are happier and focus on the important things in life (just watched your foam fight in Quito, I was in tears laughing).
Awesome vid... on the cracked stanchion base support use a hose clamp to keep the plate together by itself or in combination with some liquid metal. Have a great week!
Love you both even if he plays with old nuts

Great respect for you two.
Put a hose clamp around the outside of the cracked stanchion base. Don't over tighten (and crack further) but you can "brace" it from further deterioration with a hose clamp around the outside.
How come Jason looks like he’s using your Christmas present more than you do? 😜. It’s great to see you back on the water.
with all that fresh coconut you should learn how to make Haupia!
I like the new format. Thank you for sharing.
