We’ve just been handed our brand new HH44 (a 2 year dream in the making). And we only have 3 days before we must sail the out of the country.

Most sailors would take it slow for the shakedown period and coastal cruise for the first month or so while they get to know the . But, we don’t have that luxury.

Because this boat was built for export and once completed, it must be exported out of the country. So no local cruising for us. Due to the weather patterns and time of year, our best option right now is to sail the 600+ miles across the South China , through the Taiwan Straits (notoriously treacherous bit of water) and into the Philippines. That’s one helluva first sail!  Welcome to the world S/V CURIOSITY.

In other words this is not a shakedown cruise. This is a multi-day Bluewater that will have to serve as our shakedown.

Goodbye China and hello Philippines.

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 . 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 . And over time we have learned a lot about renewable energy, creating safe drinking water, and managing our waste.

Our is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity
