New Sails! And, considering the wind is our fuel and the Sails are our main engine…this really is a huge upgrade that will mean easier handling and better performance. 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 Timestamps if you like to Jump Around: 00:00 Big Upgrades 01:28 Why We're At a Marina 02:40 We Need Professional Help 03:28 Remove the Mainsail & Stackpack 04:31 Installing the Mainsail & Stackpack 06:18 Wake up & Say Informed 07:54 Raising the Mainsail 09:49 A New Life for the Old Main 11:21 Day 2 Tramps, Genoa & Reefing 11:52 Removing the Genoa Sail 13:14 Bigger Main & a 3rd Reef 14:50 Installing New Trampolines 16:22 Installing the Genoa Sail 19:09 Sundowner Reflections ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #BoatLife #Catamaran #TravelVlog #DigitalNomad #LifeStyle #Sailboats © Gone With the Wynns 2022
