SELF-RELIANCE AS A SAILOR (remote island living)
Today’s story is about being out on the water, in the islands, and taking advantage of what mother nature provides. From collecting rainwater to foraging with a friend and using stored power from the sun to have a date night on the deck.

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.

I watched this video when it came out and I loved the idea of a barbecue pizza. John and I both eat vegan and tonight I decided to make a barbecue pizza and it was fantastic. Mushrooms, onions, pepper and cheese. Topped it off with strawberry cheesecake bites. Stay safe and love your channel.
The scenery is so beautiful and stunning.Very enjoyable! Reminds me of my trips where I take the good music like the Guns N Roses, Imagine Draongs or the Delta Parole and then enjoy the powerful feeling of the sea. ¡vamos!
You guys are the reason I got into the rv lifestyle .I'm glad you're following your dreams but I miss you guys. 🙏🏿🙏🏿Safe travels 🙏🏿❤
Having a poisonous sea snake inspecting my dinghy. What a conversation.
Nice 🍈 🍈 lol
That pizza is a one person serving
Since you're in 🇹🇴, I bet you could find someone to teach you how to peel the husk off of a coconut 🥥 .... I have freinds and family in Vava'u if you need a connection.
can smell the sweetness in the air with you guys, may love surround you always...
Love how guys were watching Delos!
Looked everywhere on the GWTW.com site for your cookbook! Your cooking looks so good and we need the recipes please. Have you considered editing a cookbook? Or include the recipes in the show more and content sections?

Well you may want to get your eyes checked because there's a recipe tab on the sailing page of the blog: www.gonewiththewynns.com/sailing There aren't a ton of recipes there because Nikki is more of a "fly by the seat of the pants" cook, but maybe we'll get a cookbook someday. Curious Minion
I love the Ocean. :)

Whoa,she looked up at you as she was cutting that coconut husk.
Heat is your friend, condensation is from warm humid air hitting a cold surface (the glass).
You guys should try a coconut husk remover if you do get lots of coconuts. Safer and saves time. althe.info/number/l6TRemmGgZCsepU/video
A nice peaceful video - well done! As always you guys provide a nice escape for your viewers.
So glad I came across this channel. Sending good vibes guys🤙🏼 stay safe
Amazing per usual! The music in the video was super fun and enjoyable!
Pretty underwater videos, but I would never go in the water, sharks!
Immediately after watching “one of the most poisonous snakes in the world” swim away, says “let’s go swimming.” 😱😬😳
Kudos on that amazing pizza! Wonderful video (as always).
I can’t watch the machete!! Omg it brings out the Mom in me... careful lol!! Yummy fruit
once it's finished you've got some nice, cheese-flavored olive oil for salads or whatever.... Bon appetite!!!!
As always a wonderful video, thanks you guyz. Im gonna have to beng watch you this coming weekend 😆
That is not how you open a dry husk coconut my friend.
You could have put some of that pineapple on the pizza! It’s Canadian eh. Love the channel.

Would putong rice grains in the housing keep the dampness down and maybe less fog
The sea krait isn't poisonous it is venomous.....a real heart stopped of an animal

Yes but technically you'll suffocate before your heart stops.
Another amazing video! Nikki is amazing and classy. Jason is a goofball and very lucky, but I'm sure he knows that. Keep up the good work.
Such good videos to watch in these challenging times while we on lockdown ,stay safe everyone xx
Sailing uma is worth a look
The machete ands your fingers... Wow!! You were scaring me!!
I am Australian and I couldn’t stop laughing at the accent 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love how yall are watching the Delos clan at the Arctic!
Nice knife and machete skills ! 👩🏻🍳
So much LOL at the end!
You are going to chop your fingers off.

AHHHHHHHH!!!!!
The question is would you have a seven year old boy hold the coconut while you were hitting it with a machete ? Why would the life long use of you hand be any less important? Rule number 1 is always keep your body behind the tool! Throw the machete away it, it has no place on a boat. It's used for clearing fields not handwork. You both are too important to us to get maimed. By the way I'm 20 min from a hospital, how about you?
Happy-er than a clam sitting at the bottom of the Chesapeake bay passing clam gas...
20 seconds in and I'm in love with the hat! I want that hat. And such white teeth! Amazing teeth. Hey. I'm British, we notice things like that; teeth, and trimmed eyebrows on men. Strange
A small piece of paper towel will help with fog moisture
I hope Brian, Kazza and the Nugget watches The Wynns too. O almost forgot Brady and Blue too.
High tide. Because people go clamming at low tide. At high tide, no one is digging for clams!
It’s so wonderful to see you back at home!!! Thank you both for your commitment to this channel. I look forward to seeing you every week.
Thats amazing .
Absolutely gorgeous.
Question.... Do curious snakes come aboard while sleeping?
Gone with the Wynns
Muaj më parë
NO! Absolutely not. And if you have proof they do, don't tell me!
As you were enjoying your movie, wine, and pizza that snake has made it's way onto your boat..... Nice looking pizza😊
Your thumb is too close!
Do you have a vacuum cleaner with hose attachment? Do you have large ZipLock bags? Place the camera and a small desiccant bag in housing, but do not close the door, then place in the ZipLock bag. Place the end of the vacuum hose into the bag and turn on the vacuum. After the air in the bag is evacuated, close & secure the camera case. This should resolve your fogging problem.
killers yikes
I thought the sound at the begining was fire. "How come fire and rain sometimes sound the same?"
That pizza looked amazing.
Next time you’re in a place where you can get Amazon packages, you should get a cast splitter. That’s what I’ve used to open coconuts once you hit it with a knife.
be really brilliant if you hit 500k views with this vlog guys - you did it - congrats xx
Strewth mate, your accent ain't fair dinkum, when you come and visit us in Straya well get it sorted, it will be ridgey didge then Cobba.
Nikki: I was literally watching you chop that coconut though my fingers as I covered my face with my palm. Always love your episodes!!!
BRAVO...2 Story Telling...made w LoVe...:)))~🙏❤️😀👏🌱🏄♂️🐬🌴🌈🧿
You don't need a machete to open a coconut nut, you just need your teeth and some will power :-D Polynesian Cultural Center - althe.info/number/sIS2ZqNtoqCBaKo/video

There's a whole section on the blog devoted to how the Wynns (and other nomads) make money while traveling. Check it out here: www.gonewiththewynns.com/make-money-travel Curious Minion
"Dinner and a Show".... as if i wasn't jealous enough... that did it. What a lifestyle xx
I would give you guys a piece of advice : De-husk the coconuts on land prior to taking them to the boat. Put them on the ground or a flat rock with the pointy end up and hit them with a rock as large as you can comfortably lift over your head, let the gravity do the work for you.. it will after 3-4 hard blows split the husk 1-2 places and you can then remove the husk with your bare hands without any machete action.. When splitting the nut itself look at the blunt end with the "eye and mouth".. above the eyes you make an imaginary line along the nut, and you hit it confidently with a sturdy knife/parang (if you forage on islands frequently I recommend you purchase a parang, its well worth it) and it will make a straight split along the middle.. do it over a bowl if you want to save the water inside.

Nicky I think you are way to confident with that machete! Thought we were going to end up with a Horror Movie!
Use the little silica packs that comes in vitamin bottles in you dive camera housing. Absorbs all moisture in the air, no condensation.

Well, at least I have the same toaster oven as you .......'so close, yet so far away...'
Would love your pizza recipe.
Wow Folks, that sea snake and y'all played it cool. Ma'am understand your grew up in a little town in West Texas. My Wife (41 years together as of the 19th Jan. 2021) is from Van Horn where we met while I was farming. Wife was born in Monahans, Tx. Just viewed one of your excursions at the remote Island west of Cook Islands. Gosh, that's what we need, a life of stress free. I reckon, there is no China Virus spreading to those Islands as of yet? I may just keep following you on You-tube and comment in the future. Stay safe and watch those snakes! Jerome And Lupe, Spicewood, Tx
Dude cut the top of your hair to match the sides you look ridiculous
Really happy to see the vast increase in your viewership. You both work hard and have a close bond and sense of humour.
So nice to see Curiosity & Minion in the ocean again!🤗
I love your ALthe channel. Also, I would love to know if you have a Spotify channel. You have the best music in your videos.

No but the artists are listed in the description box (in the order they appear) and there's a link to the service Nikki & Jason use to find them all. 😎 Curious Minion
Been watching your videos for years, but stopped watching this one after the 'chopping' scene. It will come down to "can the hospital sew the fingers back on again?" Unfortunately, the answer will be 'no'. Will watch the next video, keep safe!
20 years from now.."Mom, tell us again why you left your thumb in Tonga"
You need to invest and practice the local way to peel and shred a coconut! You need a coconut spike and shredder :) Okay you don't "need" to do it, but I would love to watch you guys learn how to use them.
Right before you mentioned Marc, I was thinking about him. How is he doing?

He's great! Getting his meds and feeling good.
Google has just introduced me to your channel this evening and now subscribed. I follow 2 other sailing channels Adventures of a Seadog as Barry hails from my country UK and Sailing La Vagabond. BTW I have that exact same model of oven and it is just the best counter top one I have ever owned.

Hi guys don't worry Australians have thick skin we will still welcome you
Do mosquitoes follow the boat?😎🏁
It was painful watching you slice the coconut, your husband correct. Remember: to guage your risk decisions whether knives, poisonous animals, etc WITH YOUR DISTANCE TO HOSPITAL OR HEALTH CARE.
Camera fogging: you might consider trying to fill the enclosure with CO2 or nitrogen. You can get CO2 cartridges for filling fizzy drink makers whose name I forget. CO2 is heavier than air, do it should be effective to fill the enclosure while it is sitting in the bottom of a bowl. Then close it while still "submerged". You of course can also make your own CO2. Separating the H2O vapor from flame output can be done by freezing.
They need to make a couple of kids...
My heart was in my mouth watching you battle with that knife!!!!!!
Dear lord woman, get those fingers away from the coconut.... 😱😱😱
Nikki, after shucking it, you have to use the dull side of the machete and strike the coconut between the eye ends across the middle. Will crack in one or two strikes
