Biggest Argument Settled! (boat build update)

[@McBuzz930]

Since the dishwasher was Jason’s wish, you should name it Wishy Washy!

[@richardsilver8485]

I was thinking of a male name so as not to offend Nikki, like Henry. But this non gender name is perfect.

[@maryjanecreate]

Dishwasher name suggestion: dreamcatcher, dream answer, Mrs. Wishy Washy.

[@kristinwight8465]

OMG I was a teacher and there was a book called Mrs. Wishy Washy. I had this one little boy who would read it to me and the way he said Mrs. Wishy washy was so freaking adorable and brought joy to me while I was struggling as a first year teacher!

[@JustinmaguireIII]

PERFECT!!! ❤😂

[@isoperimetrix]

That's a good one. I don't have anything original to add. I was going to say something like: Washy McDish Face.

[@unpluggedkiwi1063]

Good to see the Kiwi element all ready to go. My daughter went to Beijing when she was 22 years old to teach English, and lived there for 6 years before returning to New Zealand. She always says that she felt way safer there than any other country she has been too. The only thing she felt uncomfortable with at first, was the attention she got, being a slim, blonde European girl. You have kept the same name for boat (Curiosity), so maybe you should keep the same name for your dish washer .....Jason.

[@tlevans62]

Hooray for Jason and his beloved dishwasher! Christmas has come early for him.. 😂. I hope Nikki got something she wanted as well, aside from a new boat.. 😊

[@Bakanokotosuruna666]

Hahaha you too funny

[@DianeDakin-k1e]

Good decision on having a dishwasher. My name suggestion is The Big Le Washski. You Matter!

[@grammarboy1318]

Jason, buy a second identical dishwasher now for redundancy. It’s a common problem that when appliances are built into cabinets, eventually they break and nothing can be found that fits into the custom space. We are dealing with that now with in our kitchen, with the microwave.

[@constantineding8700]

You are absolutely right. Hope they can see your comment. Top-loading dishwashers are very rare to see in the market. After several years no one can ensure if there's still one to be found.

[@RebootTheCatamaran]

I’m considering adding the sink/dishwasher version of what they have to my catamaran, but you bring up an excellent point-if I custom build the countertop to fit this appliance and the dishwasher fails, if it can’t be repaired I’m stuck with a hole in the countertop that can’t be matched and I’ll need to replumb and replace. I’m thinking now that I keep the sink install separate from the dishwasher install.

[@utoob81]

Because it is the only dishwasher model available that will fit, I recommend you buy a spare right now and put it into storage as it's a certainty you will eventually need it. I've followed you since your early RV days and look forward to each new video. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing your fun.

[@grantwes]

Out of all the KZbinrs that are getting new boats. Sailing VB, Ruby Rose, Doodles, Your boat is the one I like the most! Great Lines, Cool color, Awesome Tender, stylish interior, over all just Great choices on your interior colors and equipment choices. Congrats. Thanks for Putting HH boats on our Radar. And thanks for showing us your Friend at electrified marina. That’s a cool business model I hope it goes well.

[@user-od9iz9cv1w]

I think for active sailing, this too is my choice. A performance cat seems like the best blend of living, cruising and sailing. I absolutely love the hybrid systems combined with a high performance sailing vessel. The alternate approach that appeals for a live aboard is the NautiStyles Bering explorer. Extremely self sufficient luxury home on the water. As a senior, 5 star luxury starts to look appealing.

[@TheBircat]

Had to chuckle at 5:12 when Jason said, "that's why it's so dark in here..." cut to below decks in the new La Vagabonde tri-hull and it's so pitch black with the dark finishes they should name that boat the The Pit of Despair.

[@jaranatube]

Congratulations Nikki & Jason on the installation of the Ni'n'Ja dishwasher! Can't wait to see how it performs during sea trials. This is an event of almost Biblical proportions that will no doubt remain forever a favorite in this channel. Merry Christmas + Fair Winds and Blue Waters for 2024!

[@theShamrockShepherdWagon]

Gotta respect a man who demands his luxuries and sticks to it!

[@zoilabrashears9358]

I was going to suggest another name for the dishwasher, but your “Ni’n’Ja” name is perfect! Describes where it’s placed, how it hides, and pay homage to the owners! I vote for this name!!! ❤❤

[@billlindner]

I want to thank, both of you, for the influence you've had in my life. I've followed your channel since the Class A days. I vividly remember your solar install and boonedocking episodes, especially Florida in that rig. I must admit I gave up on your channel when you decided to sail and not RV. That was short lived. Today, I sit here at Three Lakes Wildlife Management area in Central FL boondocking in my Class C. My wife and I traveled full-time 3 1/2 years, in our Newmar Class A, after retirement in 2017 but ended up buying a home in Winter Haven. Two years ago, I purchased a Morgan 383 monohull which is finally ready to sail. At 71 years, it's time I learned. All of this probably wouldn't have happened without you both showing me the way. I thank you. May you both have a Merry Christmas. I look for to your new catamaran adventures. God bless.

[@laurence9695]

I've followed them since rv days too. I bought my Holiday Rambler because I saw their. And have wintered at Three Lakes. Loved the place.

[@JimmyLovesMundo]

@25:00 I have had the most excellent adventures by winging it with no plan in places I have never been! Good on you both!

[@dianesilverstein6475]

Curiosity "Bikini"?? What did I miss? So happy for you both, and your dishes, lobsters, and veggies...cool dishwasher!

[@TylerKaraszewski]

I am also curious. Perhaps the boat will be registered in the Marshall Islands for tax purposes?

[@diamondfire42]

Congratulations Jason and Nicki! Things are looking beautiful! As for a name for the dishwasher, Josephine Cochran invented the dishwasher. How about pay homage to her? Josephine, Josie?

[@jr.6199]

Second that, too often the talented engineers and designers are forgotten in modern marketing. The Josie gets my vote!

[@rj-205]

So... When you mentioned how long you have been traveling it reminded me how we found you... Search... "Composting Toilets" And there you were! We met the Wynn's LOL! (So many puns I could have used but for the sake of the children..LOL) Within a year we sold everything bought a truck and 18' trailer, a Thousand Trails Package and traveled the country watching every video along the way... Like you we took Cleo-our kitty with us and adventured the USA. Thanks for all the wonderful lessons... Unfortunately we opted out of sailing and instead decided to travel and live in Europe... Albania being our first 1 year adventure. I guess I just wanted to say Thanks! You inspired us.. Got us out of our apartment, working online fulltime, and seeing the world! Wish you the best During the Holiday and Fingers crossed for your new adventure to start soon "EARLY" next year. All the Best! - RJ

[@casitacindy461]

lol, i love his excitement about a dishwasher. i especially love nikki's ability to sluff off the comments. ive been following you two since you first few days in your rv and you two never cease to amaze me. as an old old woman who conformed to my self imposed limitations i love watching you two explore your curiosity. thank you for sharing your journey. btw, if jason needs more storage he can always use the dishwasher.

[@BeachBow]

You need to check if your dingy has any kind of a rudder, or if it only steers by using the jet nozzle. If you don't have a rudder, you'll need to learn to turn with power on. Because once you chop the power, the boat will straighten out and no matter how hard you push the tiller, it wont steer. Lots of new jet boat owners find this out the hard way. Congrats on the dishwasher Jason!

[@bartsargant2635]

Jason, it is for steamed lobster. you put the lobster in and put the dishwasher on dish dry/sterilize mode. then, when done, steamed lobster.

[@EdCook-f4q]

Driving jet powered boats is a learning process you seem to have mastered quickly. I owned a high-performance jet boat for 20 years and have driven many other jet craft over that time. Second nature to me but what folks unfamiliar with them may not realize is, if throttle isn't used, no steering! IF the jet isn't throwing water out the back, there is no thrust for steering. Why so many accidents happen with jet skis. People panic heading for something and let off the power. Worst thing to do!! Some pumps have a rudder attached below the thruster that gives a little bit of steering for emergencies, but the main steering is the jet. This is no news to jet owners, jet skiers, wave runners, any evidently you, but thought might be interesting for non-jet folks. Great vid and wonderful ending to 2023.

[@tinawildoner7725]

Happy holidays, Merry Christmas!! Nope, thank you for sharing 2023 with us. #teamwynns and #teamyoutubefamily for solving the dishwasher! You're right, you can't help but smile on the tender. "See" you in 2024! 🎉❤

[@rayopeongo]

I was a professional dishwasher in my youth. One of the big benefits of a dishwasher is that the dishes are cleaner. The dishwasher uses hotter water than you can when handwashing, and for a longer period of time, so the dishes are more sanitary. More than a few times, our dishwashing skills were failed by the local public health unit, (and we were rinsing in bleach too), forcing the restaurant to eventually pony up for a dishwashing machine. It's not just a convenience, it is healthier too.

[@NothingBeingEverythingforNoOne]

Your excitement and fun is always so contagious! I was grinning the whole time I was watching this video! 😊 Name for the dishwasher? “JD” of course, for Jason’s dishwasher! 🙌

[@BTheBear]

I believe I skipped piling on before because I thought the point was made. I also figured it was more light hearted fun rather than being serious. But I can tell you it’s worth it for the dishwasher. On top of all the items you noted, when you put a price on your time and accumulate it over a year, it adds up. And to flip the script, props to you Nikki for valuing Jason’s time! 🎉

[@elizabeth4053]

Wow. HH has created an amazing vessel. The care that they take is awesome to see. Fair winds and following seas 🥰💕⛵️

[@davidmessersmith786]

As well as you guys prepare for the unknown, it might be useful to look at the flex solar panels that you can fold or roll for storage under edge rail of the tender. If you get stranded due to battery level you can take a moment to charge it up and make it home.

[@joelipinski7731]

My favorite Sailors, thank you so much for the awesome content!!

[@richardmuller8815]

Dishwasher Name Suggestions: Besides "Sea Scrubber", a few acronyms to consider: E.V.A. (Efficient Vessel Appliance); A.L.I. (Aquamarine Laundering Instrument); M.A.R.I. (Maritime Automated Rinse Interface); B.R.I.E. (Brine Resistant Inboard Equipment).

[@gardenrailroading]

That is a perfect use of a corner space for the Jason Machine! The boat is looking great! Love you guys.

Goshko is a crazy good name for a dishwasher. It's a name with St. George origin, quite positive and brave one.

[@Powerstroke98]

Merry Christmas to all! Unfortunately, I've missed many episodes the last year, just being busy with our own travels. Started watching 'team Wynns' from their RVing days, giving us some fabulous tips along the way, of which we still RV of course, as we've always preferred our feet on terra firma, wanting to see more of North America, and the people within it. Best of the season, to all the subscribers, best wishes to all to end this season, and enter into 2024! It seems to fast how we've moved from our fears of the year 2000 coming up, and here we're 24 years further along, and still enjoying our travel seasons!

[@teedub1990]

Back in the early 90's, I had a top loading dishwasher in my apartment. It was full sized and you had to wheel it to the sink, attach a hose and then run it. I loved that thing. I don't know why because you had to have a strong back to load and unload the dishes at the bottom and it wasn't that convenient. When not in use however, it gave me quite a bit of extra counter space. I feel the love for the top loading washer.

[@51marshmellow]

What a thrilling video. Exciting to see, even with the unfortunate delays, that things are really coming together. Besides the joy of the dishwasher, the quiet tender and the stunning new cushions, I found myself mesmerized by the stepping of the mast. As it came together so beautifully encompassing beauty in design, function and precision. I hope you carried out the tradition of placing the coin/coins beneath the mast. May the New Year bring you joy and smooth sailing wherever Curiosity takes you💖

[@nemo227]

Our first dish washer (marriage saver) back in 1966 was a top loading dish washer. We're on dish washer number 3 or 4 now. The first was the best, washed the cleanest, cost the least. The newer front loading dish washers have gaskets around the door which accumulates food waste and must be cleaned and cleaned and cleaned, etc. And there are other drawbacks. Anyhow, enjoying your videos and looking forward to more adventures with the new "Curiosity". Happy sailing.

[@snafufubar]

Gutted. Was preparing my CV for position of permanent live aboard dishwasher. But besides my disappointment, a Merry Christmas and a happy sailing New Year to you both and all your many worldwide followers and friends.

[@ladykay8]

I think it's awesome that you're going electric for the dingy! For what and how you normally use one, it should do just fine, it's nice stable platform, and it's never going to lose air.

[@sunnydayssandytoes4337]

Yes, nice to have a dishwasher. The dishwasher isn't really needed for 2 people, still good to have. The tender is one I would have picked having seen all the boats tested. Nice going. I am glad the boat is coming along and I hope to see it sailing soon.

[@Abje72]

Happy holidays for you two. I wish you good health and happiness and fair winds and calm seas for next year. Why not name the dishwasher Kent. After all, he has been a great help at the start of your sealife. Anyway, thank you for giving us a lot of enjoyment. Greetings from The Netherlands!

[@tigerrose4213]

Nikki, you are a star - way to go. :) One idea - don't know how practical, but I know your research skills are outstanding and you will be able to figure it out... About the tender being only electric - maybe there is a portable solar kit you can get to charge it in a pinch if you get stuck somewhere? There are some good ones that fold up small, but I don't know how resilient they are in salt water.... good idea to check maybe?

[@jeromehebert3184]

So GLAD that Jason got his dishwasher LOL Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays and Happy New Year; See you next year.

That DW is pretty cool. Like how the lid lifts up. That would be amazing in an RV. BTW: The original DW in the 60s were all top loading. When you lifted the lid the top rack came up. CONGRATULATIONS JASON!!!!

When I was a kid, we had a top loading Maytag that hooked up to the faucet in the kitchen sink. You'd hook it up, turn on the hot water and then turn on the dishwasher itself. It rolled around on casters. I hated it because it was my job to empty it when I got home from school (many years ago), and as I was only 11 at the time, it was a reach to get the silverware out of the basket

[@xanthippe_2695]

So excited for you both! I know it's been frustrating, but ultimately, a well-built and safe boat is the goal for many years of amazing adventures sailing ⛵️ around the world. Merry Christmas and enjoy your interim travels! 2024 will be a year of fair winds and following seas!

[@dansbrown1313]

Hello Curiosity crew, thank you for this very informative video. Jason has requested suggestions, for a historically accurate name for the new dishwasher, so it seems to me the most logical suggestion would be "Nikki". I remember her saying, she did not want or need a dishwasher because she was fine with Jason doing the dishes. The tender was a good call and I hope the HH folks can install The davit solution to store it out of the water. Davits have been the most common lifting solution and much safer than towing, especially in heavy seas. I wish you a Merry Christmas. Cheers from Canada.

[@aliciaspence5974]

I suggest you name the DW "Baleena', or Leena for short-because she opens wide and filters bits of food. Happy Holidays!

[@akbmunsell]

One thing 😊you’ll quickly learn is that with a jet and no rudder you have to have thrust, be on the throttle, to have steering. Have fun.
