Hopefully, this is the first of many in-depth conversations we’ll share in 2023.  And we’re starting off with our new friends Frank and Mary Grace aboard Ticket To Ride.  We spent a couple of weeks with them in the Tuamotus looking to gain some experience and insight regarding performance cruising.

They also started off in a great production catamaran and then moved on to a performance cat.   Spending time with them felt like a peek into what our own journey may be like.  And we wanted to know a lot more about that evolution.

Because there is no such thing as a perfect boat, but there are different boats for different types of sailors, for different types of cruising, and for different seasons of life.  As a sailor evolves, so does their boat.

So, grab a beverage and settle in for an insightful conversation about the evolution of these sailors.

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
