- Why let go of our perfectly good cruising catamaran to get a go-fast boat? Spoiler alert, it has nothing to do with racing or going fast.

Why Curiosity2
Self-Reliance + Sustainability = Freedom
Self-Reliance: To rely on our own resources and limit our need for a marina or fuel dock.
Sustainability: Thinking about what we do today and how it will affect next week, next year, the next decade, and so on. It’s the recognition that we’re all part of a living system and that everything we do impacts the world around us.
In other words, we want to be out in the world living and exploring for as long as possible. Both in terms of not having to worry about our resources or our habitat disappearing.
It's practical, not political.
And we know we're not the only ones seeking this kind of freedom because we have you! Our community of like-minded people we've been having this exact conversation with for the past decade. It doesn't matter if you are in an RV, Tiny House, Sailboat, Motorboat, Homestead, Farm, Ranch, or Off-Grid Island Resort...at the end of the day, we've all connected over our love for nature and our desire to be in it.
This new HH44 is the continuation of that conversation and desire. This is not the ultimate, all-time perfect eco boat or zero-footprint anything. Not even close. It’s the best option that we could find working with viable, available solutions. It’s the type of innovation we want to support, encourage, and see way more of.
We're super stoked about getting into the world of Performance Cruising and hybrid electric sailing with our new HH44 catamaran. HH catamarans have a reputation for building the best luxury performance sailing catamarans in the world. And now this is a brand-new boat designed from the ground up with solar, hydrogeneration, and electric motoring in mind. Add in our rain capture system and we have the ability to be off the grid and explore incredibly remote and uninhabited areas for months and months at a time.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 journey is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity

OMG, in 22 minutes these 2 wonderful people can teach, entertain, and explore. We love their energy, smiles, enthusiasm, and curiousity.
Jason does not give himself enough credit. He is an excellent sailor at the helm, on the foredeck, or trimming a sail. No need to ask Jason for help; he is the first on a line, closing a sail bag or even jumping overboard to save the headsets.😊
The headset many asked about. It turns on, connects wirelessly but transmits only static, so essentially one headset needs replacement. That’s life on the salty ocean; back to our hand signals.
Thanks for tuning into this adventure on Ticket to Ride and for your comments.
Pretty cool of you Frank - to comment - and be a co-star too. I think Jason and Nikki are going to regret not getting a 55 after being on your boat. I think the 44 will be more bouncy in the waves - causing distress for Jason who's prone to motion sickness.
I enjoy watching what appears to be a smooth oiled machine and a couple who are tuned to their beautiful boat. As a newer sailor, I will aim to be a efficient as you folks. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. SV Antares!
I came for the RVing. I've stayed for the sailing. I'll never be a civilian sailor, but I absolutely love these adventures. Must See RUclips. #MSYT
Where's your channel Frank? I like to see you play with your toys.
Frank and Mary Grace don't have a YT channel but a link to their blog is in the description box. Head over & see what they had to say about sailing with Jason & Nikki!
Curious Minion
To Frank and Mary Grace, thanks for letting us all come along on this adventure, you two are pretty awesome people.
What great learning Frank and Mary Grace are showing us on their gorgeous boat and sail positioning!❤ Loved every minute of it! Thank you Nikki and Jason !
Tahanea fun fact: The first recorded European to sight Tahanea was Spanish navigator Domingo de Bonechea on November 9, 1774, who named the atoll "San Julián".
Champagne fun fact: According to European law, Champagne can only be called Champagne if bottled within 100 miles of the historical region of Champagne. This has been legally protected thanks to an 1891 treaty called the Madrid System. French sparkling wine made outside Champagne is called Cremant.
Jason, the joy in your face is obvious!!
Nikki is over the top Happy also! You kids have earned every moment you can enjoy!! Keep on truckin!
Santa Baby ❤️❤️ waiting on top of the line new Catamaran. Congratulations
"Being able to move at ten knots of speed and such light winds with comfortable seas. This is like heaven!" your life already IS heaven! You're sailing the world, island hopping, exploring new cultures, doing something that others aren't able to do! You inspire so many to go out there and see what the planet has to offer while we still can. And even during a cloudy day in the vlog, you still find a way to entertain us!
Frank and Mary Grace - thank you for letting us climb aboard your beautiful boat. It looks like sooo much fun.
i will admit I was in the "why do you want a performance boat" school when I first heard about it. Now i understand, it's not so much a performance thing as it is an efficiency thing. Less motoring and more sailing. Makes imminent sense to me. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
I agree, I loved how they had to tap the Sail Breaks as they came into the Pass for the Lagoon. Sweet moments there. I feel so fortunate to be virtually onboard with the captain, the Crew and the Adventure of it All! Wonderful Video~!
Made all the more glaring these days with skyrocketing fuel prices and the looming possibility of diesel scarcity in the near future. I think many motor yacht owners will be looking at the sailing yacht market for performance cats.
It was an absolute pleasure to come along with you on this adventure. Thanks so much for bringing us along and for all the time and effort you put into filming and editing this video.
Thanks for the 💙💛💙!
Wow... NOW we understand why "performance" sailing is so much fun.... You guys are doing more for sailing than most ever imagined 💪
True~! They are an AD for Sailing, for HH, for the Lifestyle, and the Joy of Sailing!
It's not 'just' these guys. Another couple of examples: Seth Hynes from The Sailing Family, the Aussies on Sailing La Vagabonde and 'Plucky' on Sailing into Freedom. They all prefer to sail in light winds instead of motoring.
It’s such a simple philosophy to adopt. Performance equals enjoyment. Lightweight means you can lift, move & handle things easier. Light weight means you can choose to sail faster and that all means increased safety & passage planning options. I’m such a fan of using racing tech for cruising. Thanks for highlighting this to your viewers.
What a great point Nikki... while the increased speed is terrific, a performance HH lets you sail in lighter air when otherwise a motor is needed. Now THAT is awesome.
Frank and Mary Grace are truly gracious hosts. Looks like a good time for all. This is why I like the Sailing Community so much... we all enjoy sharing our passion.
Great lifestyle. You have talked me into doing something like that. As soon as I get through with 15 student loans, spinal surgery, and health insurance squabbles. We live vicariously through you guys. Inspiration to us all.
I've been a hard-core monohull guy my whole life, but wow, that is one fast cat. What a boat!!
And you must admit running 3 sails looks really cool. The anticipation and expectation for your new boat must be getting overbearing for you both. At least you have this as a pressure release. Are you picking up any changes or additions for Curiosity squared?
Frank and Mary are an impressive team! Thanks for the video!
The boat is amazing and Frank and Mary Grace make sailing look fun and easy. BUT I'm sure it is their years of teamwork that really make the magic of sailing happen. Thanks to Frank and Mary Grace for the sail and to Nikki and Jason for capturing it so beautifully and sharing with us.
Sweet sailing. You always include a unique photo shot in your videos. I think today's shot was the ascent after the anchor check with the rain drops on the water's surface.
Yes your hosts seem like wonderful people. What a beautiful Cat. So efficient and wind 🌬 worthy. What a home on the water. I can see why you are so excited about getting your new Cat. Happy sailing ⛵️ and safe adventures. Great 👍 video.
Even this landlubber is starting to get more of the terminology each time I watch you sail. So thanks for the education!
Steve Dashew also designed performance monohulls for exact this purpose. He had noted over extensive cruising that most of the times winds are actually very light in many parts of the world. Also in a performance yacht it is faster to escape from bad weather, especially useful on big passages.
We sail a Chris White Atlantic 57 cat. Not only do we get the pleasure of light air boat speed at or above wind speed, but the heavy air performance is unbelievable - sail in the high teens and low 20's. Also means we can regularly do 320+ mile jumps in a single overnight, double overnight we have done 550+. Makes it easy to sail as a couple....
The Chris White Atlantic 57 is a beautiful boat in every way. We were anchored adjacent to a 57 at Bird Island, Antigua in about 2016.
HH needs a Frank TTR watch seat option. I vote for integrating a Stressless recliner. Cup holders, recline, swivel, and extendable foot rest.
Flying added sails can improve the performance (speed). There are lots of aerodynamics involved in sailing. I have always impressed with those sailors that have that ability get all the speed out of a boat. Way neat.
By the way “beating to wind” in rough winds is hard on even the most experienced sailor. Don’t make the mistake of going below. You will loss your breakfast.
Dude, that man is in damn good shape! HH=the best gym in the world?
Gimmi a HH-cat and i'll go to the gym every day! All day! ;))
Happy people makes me smile.
Thanks to the owners, for letting the Wynns onboard. ❤
Thanks to Frank and Mary Grace for walking in us all into their home and showing us how they sail. That was an excellent Wynnsday, except the water logged headset....hopefully Frank got to clean it out fast enough. Maybe a quick wash with distilled water or rubbing alcohol (which is more likely on hand)...
Another fabulous preview! The benefits of which are hard-won from many miles navigated in a slower catamaran. Something that the brand new sailors of the of the first Curiosity would not been able to comprehend. Your generous hosts have indeed shared some refined sailing. Anything less will be hard to measure up.
I can see you two, as you get into your 60,s converting to a 55, both the 44 and the 55 are fantastic boats
I’m thinking back to the partial day you had at this incredible cave I can’t remember the name of at the moment. You only had a very few hours there. You’d have had several more hours to explore if you’d had this boat. This is going to give you so much more time at destinations! Never mind the fuel cost and green house gas reductions! It’s a great move!
Wow! Really amazing Sail! You and the Charming Crew showed us TTR's abilities! Love the different sails, and the stowing of the one sail. At one point it sounded like a tea kettle, the dynamics of this Vessel are so complimentary. Everything works in Unison, but it is like tap dancing you have to stay ahead of it until you hit the Calm. Nice work, retrieving the Headset! Whew! You were like a Porpoise at the end, I could see you were looking forward to Your Own Vessel and experiencing this set of points - Buoys out, and Anchoring safely. Nice, Very Nice!🤠😎💕💫🙏 Merry Christmas! Stay safe, Bon Voyage!
With greater boat speed comes the ability to make use of smaller weather windows and the ability to avoid weather. Not to mention cutting passage time which gives you the option of going more places because it’s less work to get there.
In the world of auto racing, they have a saying: "Speed costs money. How fast do you want to go?". I suspect this applies to sailing too.
Well said, million dollar cats sailing the seas testing the latest in high performance hardware. You got the money I got the time!
And there's also a lot of boats that are just as expensive that don't sail as well as this or something from Outremer/Marsaudon/Rapido or some such. There's also a lot of boats that don't even have sails...
@@rons9197 There's also a used market. Performance cruising cats are expensive used as well. But it doesn't have to be a million dollars...
Million? Try 2.5 million for an hh55. You might get an Outremer 55 for half that.
Jason and Nikki, it must be like a very long suspended Christmas time waiting for your new Catamaran. Frank and Mary, how gracious of you to let Jason and Nikki get a feel for their new cat. Very impressive on so many fronts. Great video guys, can't wait to see your new sail boat in all its glory with you guys at the helm. So, so happy for you two.
Frank and Mary Grace, you are the consummate captain and first mate. Wow, the action never stopped as you were showing us how beautifully your boat sails. Up sails, down sails, this sail that sail. Thank you F & MG for your hospitality and grace while all this intrusive filming was going on.
We love having the Wynn’s aboard. No intrusion at all.
Truly gracious hosts. And this is why I love the Sailing Community.
Frank and Mary Grace are an amazing couple and they know how to work as a team! Jason did a great job videoing the many sails in a way the viewer could understand. This was a really fun video!
Damn!! Frank is ripped! Lol… sorry I don’t mean to embarrass him, but that shit is hard work! Props! This is so fun! I want a mimosa. I learned about dagger boards from Sailing with with Ruby Rose. Thanks for the update guys. Cheers!🎉❤
Absolutely love your videos. I can understand why you want a faster boat. It will help when you are out in open water and a strong storm is baring down on you.
Such great hosts, and what a learning experience for when you get your own HH. Love following you guys. Xx
The new boat will be exciting! It will be interesting to see how your boat differes from this boat (being that this boat is a little larger). Also, just familiarizing with the new boat and how it compares to your old one. And finally.. how does your "cruising" change? Will we ever see a "rough weather sailing" again? 🤢😉
If you want to sail Round the world. If you think youre not going to see rough weather you better stay at the dock.
I can already see that both of you are truly in love wth the boat design you've chosen and the trip you're on now just highlights the differences between what you've chosen and decided against. I know you're excited that you'll soon be getting your new home/catamaran. I was completely excited when I got to money into my place. I may no longer be a nomads but I do find ways to go on "trips" in my local town.
The weather looks beautiful there!
This seems like the perfect boat, space, comfort, speed efficient, quiet, and ease of use, I hope your new boat performs as good, or better, I’m looking forward to your videos on your new boat happy, sailing, keep up the great content!!!
It's great that you are getting to know how it performs before you get yours . You guys look like you are having a lot of fun .
LOL The Reacher....Jasons a Lee Childs fan
Efficiently sailing. Awesome boat!!
This was a wonderful, positive, video. So much to show of what your next boat (should) may be able to do as you work with (it) her. I am so looking forward to what is to come.
Thanks to Frank and Mary Grace for allowing us to see inside their boat and life. You guys do a great job videoing the experience. We love watching your videos❤
You feel the need for speed!
Sailing is all about the waiting for the winds but if we can make a passage in half the time is allready an excellent bonus.
Amazing, what a gorgeous sailboat. What an amazing sailboat. Stay safe guys and thank you . Thx to F&M, what a window into what is possible. So much fun!
Looking forward to see you, at your
new boat and enjoy the performance,
that you Will bring us❤🎉🥂
Wow, those seas turned a bit wonky real fast. Can't wait to go sailing on your new boat. From the middle of North America, of course but your productions have made me feel like I am right there all along.Beautiful boat just beautiful.
Hell yea! You guy's make want to get the hell out of my rut and go on an adventure!
Merry Christmas Nikki and Jason!
I hope you like your new boat as much after your first storm. Fair winds and good sailing.
Definitely looks like a happy crew which also showed with Nikki and Jason. An incredible boat and I now understand why you would choose a performance catamaran. Great speed and comfort to help make your long travels easier on both of you.
Nice edit guys. Lovely boat and the owners are just such a nice sailing team hey 😊
I love this mini series with the HH, thanks so much to the owners for making this possible.
Top of my boat wish list is switching from a Catalina 34 to an HH44 😎
That looked blummin' fantastic!
I'm glad you pointed that out- "maximizing sailing and less motoring". That made clearer sense when I hear channels talking about performance sailing. Thanks!
Hi from Florida. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thanks and Be Safe.
So looking forward to you guys on your new boat ✌️💜
Its so cool to learn from you guys and you from the TTR owners on your Champagne Sailing cruise! I get all excited about boating now. Awesome footage guys XO
Beautiful video. Such a nice couple- love their boat
Still waiting for your new sailboat and continuation of your adventures. Love your story telling. Keep up the good work,
WOW, WOW! Loved this VLOG⛵😄. Thank you for sharing. I've always been curious as to truly how much of a difference there is between the performance and the production. Of course I've seen it on paper but real world like you just presented is just wow.
Guys, what an episode! Perfect Sunday afternoon viewing. Frank and Mary Grace , thank you for being awesome hosts to Nikki and Jason. pS. Did the headset survive? Hope so.
Great fun! I'm so envious of you getting to do this :-)!
That was Fun!
Beautiful catamaran.
Lovely Owners.
I also heard that the length of the boat matters too. The HH44 will not be able to sail faster than the 55 footers. I also heard that the Trimaran will out sailing the catamaran !!! Can’t wait when you two get your hands on Curiosity 2 !!! 👍👍👍
i'm with you on performance. faster and more enjoyable.
Incredible!! Thanks guys!
So amazing guys . Please stay strong for us .
Smiling, even in stormy weather.😊
Love that rain boat shot!
It is amazing how coronated and efficient Frank and Mary are, awesome.
Thank you Nikki and Jason - Your insight to sailing reminds me of Karen and Richard Carpenter - all in perfect harmony - Smooth Sailing Regards
Awesome seeing all the tell tails streaming straight back. Beautifully rigged and well sailed.
I could watch every day that you folks were on TTR- yup, it's a great boat, very powerful & has a sweet set-up to boot. I love the fact that THEY want to go fast, lift a hull maybe, test sails, try new & different combos. It makes very entertaining videos! I'd love it if you would discuss "what to do when overpowered below a beam reach". That is needed to be clear when the wind pipes up with a blooper, a Code sail, etc. The boat can power up based on apparent wind angles & create a tip over situation if not addressed prior to the wind getting up there!!!
Whew! Whatever that is, It sounds interesting, challenging and more OJT for Jason & Nikki! I sail but have never heard this terminology. As an Aircraft Pilot, Commercial SEL, I understand staying ahead of your Craft. Especially, in a dangerous wind, Storm, or passage of the Leading Edge of a Storm when things get Squirrely. Been there, done that! G.ood Point DC!
That’s still a lot of sails and lines to manage, and you obviously have to know what you’re doing. But it looks like it has every convenience to make doing that easier. We can all see how excited and happy you are experiencing this fancy new boat.
There are pros and cons. The most important advantage of speed IMHO is greater possibility of outrunning squalls and major storms.
Beat me to it: 100%
But not just that, it plays into your decision making as well: On a slow boat you may just *choose* to ride out weather because any distance you go off course you now have to come back, which just takes even more time!
Loved watching the sailing!
Can not wait for you to get your new boat !
Amazing boat, amazing people! Smooth light air sailing is the best, if you have the right boat.
What a wonderful sail to witness, it had to be marvelous in person. Ticket To Ride is aptly named.
That boat is a technological marvel. can't wait to see you guys sailing aroung the world on your ca t;;;
Haven’t watched you two in awhile. This was a fantastic video.
Wow! That looks fabulous! So incredible! Performance all the way! Sail to Isla Mujeres!!!I am ready to crew!
“It’s gotta be fun”….. words to live by.
Jason & Nikki, this video is *amazing*! Your explanation of why you are choosing a performance cat over a cruising cat makes perfect sense....that said I think, based on what my wife and I are thinking right now, a cruising cat probably will work best for us when we choose this path....of course, things may change, yes? :-)
Thanks for sharing this with us. We've learned so much from watching y'all.
Be well. Be safe.
TTR is one really, gorgeous yacht!
So exited to see your new boat
This is one FAST cat! Almost as fast as Singa!! Haha. Thanks for another awesome video!! Look forward to when your "boat comes in"...haha.
You guys are a fantastic advertisement for hh catamarans, I hope they are hooking you both up,
This looks incredicble, I am just to the point of cleaning out the house, and 2-3 months away from full time RVing, best of luck to you
Thanks guys, with you in spirit, great to have friends that own such a cool boat :-)
Love your channel!!!
Who wouldn’t! HH design is smart.
The color of that water is AMAZING
Thectwo most interesting and professional youtube sailers
Very cool. Nice job guys
