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

Gone with the Wynns
Hi there. It's Sunday so I wanted to show up with a smile. We're still working away on the next video and getting CURIOSITY whipped back into sailing shape. We'll have the video ready for you next week and hopefully the boat will be ready to go by then too. 🫣

No new video from us today but we'll be back next weekend. In the meantime, here is a birds eye view of one of the many little spots we've dropped the hook here in the Philippines. We look like a tiny boat for ants from way up here.
This is Ditaytayan Island and it's neat because you get sunrise on one beach and sunset on the other. It's a visual feast for the eyes twice a day.
Most of the coral was all wiped out (not bleached but completely dead) which was sad as you can tell it used to be very impressive. But there were still lots of little fish hanging about and hiding in the sea grass. Found some new funky fish I have never seen before. I will post some and see if any of you can help us figure out what kind of fish they are.

Some extra snaps from this weeks video. Our new friend Raul takes us deep inside the Philippines most dangerous wild food. As in it grows wild all through the Palawan province and is FREE for anyone to take advantage of...if they dare.
We love stumbling upon these stories and being able to share them all with you...I don't even have the words to express how much it means. Thanks so much for being a part of the journey!

No new video from us today. We’re taking one Sunday a month off from publishing for a while. Giving us time to seek out meaningful stories. Time to be more thoughtful. Time to be more human. Time to be sailors.
Right now, we’re deep in passage planning mode. Typhoon season is sneaking up on us quick and we need to decide: go up towards Japan or go down towards Raja Ampat to get out of the zone?!? 🤔 Both are around 850-900 miles.
But first, we must sail the 400 miles to Cebu for our first warranty service and haul out👏🏻! Which places us smack in the middle of the Philippines.
So many things to consider, so many different paths to take, all leading to places we have never explored. Which direction would you go?

We share everything…but a table. So happy to have our own work stations! Especially because Monday is Tax Day 😳. Anyone else burning the midnight oil to prepare?
While there won’t be a new video this Sunday, know we have been on the move and we’ll be sailing with you next week!
May the deductibles be ever in your favor. 🙈

Our editor needed a haircut. So we’ve given him a break and sent him to the barbershop. But we’ll be back next week.

My favorite photo from our sail on S/Y Destination. Two sailors in their element and loving it. Plus, one of my favorite comments about this weeks video. 🍽️🚿
If you haven't seen it, it's a good one...a once in a lifetime sail!

Coming at you with a BIG boat update soon. 🤩
No video this week but we’ll be back in action next Sunday.
Sooo ready to be sailing across oceans instead of flying over them…but flying through the clouds is pretty mesmerizing sometimes too. ☁️

Sorry for the long wait on todays video! We were practically uploading on dial up speeds🐌(for those of you under 20, that's back before the time of YouTube 👵🏻). But it's here and it's a good one! We join our friends @sailingrubyrose for their first passage on the brand spanking new SeaWind 1370. ⛵
