So...we have been avoiding the "when are you getting your boat" question for a while...but not anymore. The original plan was to splash this summer (obviously that didn't happen) but now that HH has launched the first two hulls of the HH44 (01 and 02), we're next. But today we're talking about why we're not sailing our new boat (yet), what our sailing plans are and what we're doing in-between.
Oh yes, and we're doing it all with the windy but beautiful backdrop of Mallorca, Spain!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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

A good dishwasher install takes time. You can't rush the important things....

[@gonewiththewynns]

😂😂😂

[@elizabeth4053]

Indeed 😝😜

[@wardkarns]

I've been checking on KZbin hourly expecting to see Nikki and Jason buzzing like hummingbirds on their new boat, but I am sure the wait will be worth it in the long run. Hang in there guys.

[@nemo227]

I was holding my breath but, after a few weeks, I found breathing was more important.🙄

[@jkurensky]

I’m glad you guys are doing this right. The old adage “There’s never time to do it right, but seemingly always time to do it twice” this way is far better!

[@michaelholliday100]

You are pretty close, the saying goes, “There is never enough time to do it right, but there is always enough time to do it over.” ~John W. Bergman - Jack W. Bergman is a retired United States Marine Corps lieutenant general who served as commanding general of Marine Forces Reserve and Marine Forces North. He also served as a naval aviator, flying rotary-winged aircraft such as the CH-46, T-28, and UH-1, as well as fixed wing aircraft such as the KC-130.

[@jkurensky]

Seems I should’ve done it right the first time :)

[@stevenichols4639]

And engineering there’s an expression you could have it good, you can have it fast or you can have it cheap, but you can only have two of those.

[@jkurensky]

@@stevenichols4639 that one I know from my project management days. Good one

[@andyp91]

I think we've all been there ! and what a great phrase

[@lucabrasi5070]

It is what it is. Who wants to be alone in the middle of an ocean in a boat somebody rushed to get done so they met a deadline.

[@blubmmr]

I respect the fact that y'all were willing to take a chance on a untested/unproven boat. WIth that said, the fact that you were lucky enough to have access to the factory and all those involved makes all the difference. It helps give you that piece of mind that things ARE being done properly...even though it's taking longer than expected. But in typical Nikki and Jason fashion, you've taken those lemons and made lemonade. You're not sitting down and pouting, you're making the best of the situation. In my experience, trying times like these you are dealing with sometimes present unexpected opportunities which might not have been available otherwise. Take advantage of them and realize you'll be better for them.

[@owenkuntz9108]

That is a stunning little city. Thank you for sharing.

[@DYoung-vt8pq]

Soooooo excited for your new boat! Safe travels ❤

[@tunamaniak]

My sincere compliments and admiration for keeping your spirits highand always looking for the positive. Most of us would have lost it being without a home for that long.

[@allanmurphy7474]

Whatever time delays now,in the long run you will benefit. You guys are in it for the long run. I appreciate your sharing your lives with us. Cheers

[@bobbygriffith1429]

It’ll all come together in the end! Stay calm, be understanding and patient. Sounds as if H&H is doing the right thing for y’all! Hope y’all get it soon and enjoy! Here’s 🙏 for the best! ✌🏼❤️🤙🏼

[@briangebhardt4791]

Jason and Nikki, you two have been so inspiring for me! I look forward to your videos weekly and even though you haven’t been in your own boat for over a year, you have kept it sooo interesting with your adventures! I’m sure it’s a lot harder than you let on to keep it going at this pace. One day, I hope to do more sailing than a weeklong charter at a time, but I’d love to crew sometime so I will be waiting anxiously to see how your Med crossing goes!

[@georgelasko7019]

So true on delays!! We put our RV in for repair and service, with the dialogue of “no problem.. 2 weeks tops!” Yeah right…. Waiting on parts! 2 months later we get a call… the parts came in, give us 2 days. Swear to God… 1 day later I get a call from the police “ do you have a RV at Camping World? They broke in last night and stole 135 Catalytic Converters and one was yours😮 Of course we had another 2 weeks wait. I feel your pain!!! Love your channel and every Sunday we say… “Let’s see if Niki and Jason got their boat” Take care, be patient and Smooth Sailing…. Some day!🤗

[@leemiller2811]

You two are so resilient and amazing. 🌺

[@Leland189]

Just take it easy and relax. You are still young and have a great long exciting trip ahead. Love you both.❤❤

[@snafufubar]

Ahhhh...Majorca. our favourite holiday island. Hope you enjoyed your stay there. Looking forward to your even better new updated home and travels.

[@edcook9747]

We are all anxious for you to set sail on your new boat but you are keeping us glued to your adventures during the wait. Excellent presentations and fun for us! You are taking advantage of many opportunities and taking us along. A new adventure every week!

[@orrieallen7320]

Very beautiful places you both go to and the food, it is amazing. Reminds me of my travels as well when I was in the Navy. I was stationed in La Maddalena Sardinia for 3 years and did the Med things to all the coastal countries. Great experience. Mahalo for you filming these videos.

[@goodandgreen]

Aww hang in there! Love following your journey to realize your dreams!!

[@peterallen143]

I can’t wait to see your new boat so I can’t think how you two are feeling safe travels 👍👍👍❤️

[@MikeHarrison3266]

I love it when folks visit Palma, I lived in Mallorca and worked in Palma so I get a load of memories rushing back at me. Like many we are keen for you to be in your new home.

[@kateatherton4235]

Hope all gets sorted out for you (and you get your dishwasher!)

[@melanieshirkey5276]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful place! Safe travels back to your boat!

Just great to see you guys again, they say all good things in due time. And every day is a new adventure

[@gradydees9981]

Majorca is really beautiful, glad you got a chance to visit.

Hitching a ride on a sailing vessel is an upgrade from hitching a ride on a trailer.

[@tammyfaulkner7428]

Ok so I’m not gonna lie, I was so looking forward to today thinking that I would see you on the new boat. If I’m feeling this way I can just imagine how your feeling about the delays 😢 I guess it’s that old saying “ Good things come to those who wait “ hopefully soon we can get back to sailing around the world and have some wonderful adventures. Safe travels and see you next week ❤

[@jamarie1972]

It’ll definitely be worth waiting for, you’ve come so far on this project that a few more Weeks, Months will pay dividends in the end. All the best to you both from us in England 🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@myaccount6487]

Can I just say, thanks for the content over the past year and the years before. The past year in particular as you have both truly been thrown about the place, yet managed to still pump out interesting and quality material. 👌🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻

[@Bucketlistretreats]

We know your pain. We're finally in our new home ... bought the land in '17, whew what a journey. You two will be so grateful when you're on board! Can't wait but who knew I'd get to see Mallorca today! Love it. 😘

[@christineryan7522]

Nikki I signed up immediately for Headspace because I trust your opinion and I am so excited to give it a try. Hang in there you two!

[@dmwi1549]

I do envy your ability to go with the flow and take advantage of the HH improvements. One door remains closed…for now, and another opens. What an adventure you live.

[@TwelvePaws]

When you get to Indonesia, Head towards Misool which has a marine protected area. This was the idea of two Scuba Diving Instructors who set up Misool Eco Resort. The Diving in this area is spectacular. We visited 3 times and have many 1000's of dives each - that's how great it is. Magic Mountain rarely disappoints Avoid Spring tides as the currents are fierce (but big fun if you like big currents). The area closes for the Monsoon though

[@noelbowerman1562]

So nice to see you guys back showing us ,different destinations.

[@chasl3443]

What a marvelous story. In Mallorca, you've given us another place to dream about. Wish you well in whatever time/dimension this finds you!

[@johnschieffelin3226]

Very happy to hear your boat will be BETTER due to lessons learned on hulls #1 and #2. Very good lesson as to why I will never buy hull #1 of anything. Can't wait to watch delivery sail video.

[@babzblu]

It's good that time and the budget allow for all the variations. All the best. 😊

[@davidallen306]

I feel y'alls pain. And that's a compliment to your storytelling ability. We can't wait for y'all to be sailing the blue 44!

[@paulapenna-loveyourvoice]

What a gorgeous place!!

[@skohaya]

I would watch your channel even if you became a travel channel. Jason's photographic eye is amazing. Grass is always greener in the other side. Enjoy that your not teetered and have that forever list of Boat Projects. But once you get the keys, then it starts! Congrats on your future boat delivery. Blessings!🎉

[@2nd_of_3]

I’m sure you’re disappointed but what a great adventure! I’m never going to sail, but we live remotely and the solar situation is very similar. Also recapturing our water. You always educate us, Thank you.

[@ThePricipleOfParsimony]

Love that you guys always show us and highlight the places you go, and don't just show views from the boat. It's bazaar because so many sailing channels don't do that and many times we can't even distinguish where they are. We understand they are 'sailing' channels, but they're/you're also 'travel' channels. Anyhow, thanks for showing us Mallorca up close. I hadn't pictured it quite so Metropolitan.

[@deanmorgan5051]

So proud of you guys, you've achieved so much - since the RV days, keep going, avante...

[@kellee6551]

Soooo enjoyable....Walking the old town was Wonderful. Thank you as always for your smiles, time and professional video's..

[@johnrainey6545]

If you want to stay in a really interesting place, go to Singapore and stay in the Katong-Joo Chiat district, it's where the original Peranakans live and it's wonderful. We stayed there two weeks, great place to go all about the island, reasonable prices and central to many of the other ethnic neighborhoods and the food stalls which are amazing!

[@rwhunt99]

Been there, done that! not a boat but in life, in a new home, in a job. It's SO frustrating and you are stuck with no way out, you are caught in the middle, you can't back out and get another boat. So I can relate to your frustration. You are lucky as windows close and doors open. Wish you well! Sometimes it's rough seas and other times it's smooth sailing, lol!

[@jeromehebert3184]

The old town looks great!

[@riceball_5]

Mallorca was my favorite part of Spain when we went there for two weeks. Going with the flow is sometimes all you can do during stress and uncertainty. Can’t wait to see the video of the passage!

[@grainneocarroll6427]

I know what you mean about unsettled (in a far smaller way), I’ve just finished 6 weeks finishing as much as possible on 1 job and learning another, packing up my stuff but leaving enough for the rest of the family who aren’t travelling, and moved abroad midweek (after spending the weekend on a Cub Scout hiking and hostel trip - really sensible choice!). I am currently living out of 2 suitcases until I get a permanent rental and my truckload can join me. And realising that I forgot loads, and forgot with Armistice Day that not only was almost everything closed today but also yesterday…so shopping has to wait until next weekend as it’s been nonstop already here (I was still doing job 1 on Wednesday morning before heading to the airport, got to my temp apartment at 9pm and had an all day meeting for job 2 start at 9:30 am Thursday!) and another full week of work ahead.

Nice video guys. Holding thumbs you get your boat soon 🙏🏻. I have a hull no 1 but luckily it was the PO that had the delay. 😉

Considering the amount of trouble that Ruby Rose 2 is having you’re making a very wise decision.

[@michelehengeveld644]

OMG OMG>. I KNEW IT, Before you even said Mallorca, I saw that cathedral in the background and I said MALLORCA! They are in MALLORCA! OMG! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that Island of Spain. I had the amazing fortunate opportunity to be in that place for 8 hours when My parents got us all on a Norwegian Cruise ship. It was by FAR my favorite place on that cruise besides Florence Italy... I SO want to go back and stay for days. I took several Photos of that cathedral. I AM SO wishing I was with you both... LOVE LOVE... I KNOW you are having an amazing time (As I write this comment before I see the end of the video)!!! Ok. Back to the Video. Hoping in a few years if we really take to sailing, I will end up back there with my BF on a sailboat.

[@cherylsibson2529]

Yeah, living in limbo, or in flux, the best thing one can do is breathing exercises, breathing spaces can be meditative walking and noticing your lungs, recognition of your toes to your head, heart & soul, and Olive trees! We had a significant wind storm in Canada that blew out power and knocked out ferry service for 60 sailings, weather is everywhere!

[@RobDriver]

Oh Boy! Palma is such a beauty and thats why I at least stay there for a week per year.

[@samwiseca1]

Aside from the amazing videos, you are so right about Headspace. I use the headspace sleep cast all the time. I travel a lot, it gets me to sleep in those horrible always different hotel rooms, but it also gets me back to sleep when my monkey mind wakes me up at 1:30 and starts the anxiety train. Headspace and the sleep cast have given me hours more sleep every night!!!!

[@stevensims8922]

Just a shout out to say thanks for the Headspace recommend and 60 day trial! I've been working on being more mindful this year but hadn't settled on a guide. Headspace is great! I signed up through your link, spent a while on the first few classes on sleep. THEN I put on a Sleepcast at bedtime. Sure enough I made it through about the first 10 minutes, next thing I knew it was morning. I have serious sleep issues and this really seemed effective. I love your channel, never miss an episode. I really appreciate your recommendation, I'm excited to continue. As far as the boat delays, "measure twice, cut once", you are doing it right. I am excited to see you back on the water though. :)

[@gonewiththewynns]

Awe, so glad you have already found the app helpful. It was an instant hit for me too! The more I learn about living a long life (and healthy enough to enjoy it) the more I learn how important sleep and exercise are. I can't say I have the exercise part nailed yet but my sleep has dramatically improved. Thanks for being a part of the journey!

[@michelebushnik2874]

The scenery you are sharing with us is so spectacular and interesting❤ reminds me of my early back packing years throughout Europe, which my memories are still implanted with joy and wonderment in my 60 year old mind❤❤ I still love travel adventure, but now watch through my adored you tube channels as yours been following for years!

[@chrispomfret8592]

Boats and delays are like Mondays following Sundays. If you are in the Phillipines then you’ve gotta take the chance to go further South to see the top end of Australia before you go back up to Europe. It’s not the beaten track and you won’t have the chance again for a long while. I think you two could make some excellent videos there.
