We loved our road trip up the mountain to Boquete, Panama but it's great to be back on the boat again. We're in full on let's-get-crap-done-mode so we can sail on to the next destination. We're hoping to stay in Bastimentos for another week or so while we do some needed boat maintenance, pick up our newest crew member and have our last few adventures in the Bocas del Toro archipelago.
As always, we've documented way more that we share on our website (you can't fit it all into a video). If you're curious about the locations, contacts, product links or seeing some exclusive photographs make sure to click over: gonewiththewynn...
Thanks for watching and being such an important part of the journey that we call life.
Jason, Nikki, Cleo and Singa

This what makes your channel the most interesting. It not about the sailing, it’s about the adventures of sailing. Keep safe and may the winds be kind to you.
That is soooo kewl that Dan works hard for 10-11 years and its his first vacation in a long time....Dan gets a chance to live the cruising lifestyle...
Very cool cave adventure but there is noooo way I would of went in there! Thanks for taking us in to see the sights.
Whats up Steveo! Your the reason im watching these guys!!
steveo1kinevo Ugh. Not me. I skipped through the entire bat cave. I’d rather stay on the boat, 24/7. I love the ocean, love boating.
Steveo! I certainly didn't expect to see YOU hanging around this channel! I'm not surprised, but I was pleasantly surprised.
You need to take a vacation from 851TB and do a couple of weeks worth of crew work in Jason and Nikki! :-)
i know Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid lost my password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Stefan Cade Instablaster ;)
OMG. I really admire your bravery on this one.
Love changin' it up a bit with a new crew member - dynamics always make it just a bit more interesting and as always, a beneficial learning experience. Cheers!
Love Dan's statement. "Looked like you knew what you were doing."
Wow!!!!! That was one awesome trip! Justin still looks like he’s just getting acclimated! I can’t imagine being in the mindset to join a group of strangers on such a small vessel - such tight quarters, and being vlogged every day..... THAT is an adventure in itself! Kudos Dan
The cave..... Now in my day I’ve done some challenging activities.... I used to do bungee jumping, skydiving, river rafting, parenting.... I had thought I’d do a bat cave...... but I’m re-thinking that idea!... lol!! Not knowing what’s at my feet in murky water is quite the phobia for me; the water got soooo deep! Although the guide seemed really awesome! That certainly helped..... except when he “disappeared”.
Excellent presentation - great editing!! It really was an adventure here at home.... in fact, the entire Panamanian trip has been an almost visceral experience! Thanks so much Wynns!!!!

You run a tight ship ... very ship shape. The bat cave tour was phenomenal; another once-in-a-lifetime experience. Good thing you had a fun tour guide. The $25 fee looks like it will feed his family for a whole month, if not longer. Maybe consider bringing some dry bags with you on your excursions so that you don't have to leave important stuff behind, like at the grotto. Thanks for sharing and continued safe travels.
It surprises me that you guys only have 154K subscribers. great video, as always.
Brave Souls you are! I am glad that I could watch it on video. Keep having fun.
Gotta love those "required" PFDs on the water taxi. Very stylish fabric with the low-vis pastel camouflage scheme...
I guess that living the dream is not all fun and games. But then again, Jason's super-smile shows that even changing the oil can be fun.
Seriously brave, that was like five phobias rolled into one. Love the adventures!
What a awesome adventure! Who would think, "today I'm going to do cannonballs in a cave.."! Your videos of this whole adventure from the beginning has been amazing, making me think it's time to sell the old homestead and buy a boat.....a big one! Even though the wife gets seasick easily, she would love to see all these amazing sights....so it would be worth it. Hello to the new crew member, you will never forget this vacation! So jealous, wish I could be there.....keep up the great work, say hello to the folks from the great white North for me. You all make my Sunday evenings, look forward to the latest video. Thanks for including everyone who can't live this lifestyle, have a sundowner and watch you guys next week!
So, now Curiosity has her very own basketball team. And Dan can play center!!!
Great video guys!!!
Hahaha!
I really liked the bat cave. You guys are courageous. I would not want to be there but I appreciate being able to see it. And I admire your athleticism, everyone's.
Looks like Fernando had a blast too! A little Halloween fun.
I really enjoy 50% expedition 50% traveling/sailing but look forward to 100% all the videos.
Nope nope nope.. I would not be walking through that water! Too freaky! Thanks for another amazing video!
Great fun to watch your adventure. In Chicago with the first signs of winter, envious of your tropical world. Keep up the good work in your around the world travels.
Thanks guys. All the spiders looked poisionous. The guide is an old hand and had a lot of fun. We had bats at a tire plant. They would fly out and grab bugs attracted to the parking lot lights. Pretty harmless, but I wouldn't mess with cave full. Welcome to the crew Dan.
Simply put.... A freaking mazing.
Right?!? We thought that was pretty crazy too!
Well done guys. All of the crew exhibited great courage in the bat cave. Nikki lived up to her childhood hero “Pippi Longstocking” and Java-Jason managed to not squeal like a girl when the bats flew by. You are looking like real adventurers not afraid to see the world.👍😁
Awesome video!!!! This was more like watching National Geographic! Your guide deserved a tip. Hi to your new crew member.
You couldn't pay me to go more than 10' into that cave. I made a deal with bats a long time ago. If they will leave me alone, I'll leave them alone.
Just WOW! So Dan got the smallest bunk, right? Haha! Welcome to the fun Dan!
Reminded me of "Raiders of the Lost Arc". Great video. JC
Suggestion enhancement: Open the Zip bag and fold the zip edge out down the side a couple of inches. Then when you grab the messy thing you have good odds of keeping the zip closure clean, or cleaner, and then you can immediately zip it closed.
Good idea!
That was fun! I hope you tipped that guy
Best. Guide. EVER! And new crew member seems fun as well.
Always make sure the gasket from the old filter is gone before you put the new filter on. If the gaskets get doubled it will leak bad. Yes, I've done it and had a bilge full of oil.
Well impressed with your language skills Jason.
Very cool - I feel like I am in a Natural Studies class (but enjoyable). I love the part where the guide left you and thought to myself - Is this not how all horror films start? Great content
There is NOOOOOO WAAAAAAY that I could’ve gone in there, but it was heart-pounding, squeamish FUN having THAT vicarious experience with all of you!!! YOWZA!
Something about having a guide made us feel a little more invincible...which in hindsight seems ludacris :)
Great day. Thanks
You guys are so much fun to watch!!!♥
its awesome how tour guide was wearing WYNN signature colors,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ty for sharing..
You are most adventurous and your videos are excellent.
I was envious until I saw the huge spiders. I don't care that they have a "cute" name like cricket spiders. Thanks for continuing to post your quality videos. I'm always excited when I see a new video from you guys.
Well, Caves and Bat's are not one of my things since Nam. so this freaked me out ... a little. Fun..
OMG! What an adventure. All of the creepy things wrapped up in one moist, slimy, claustrophobia inducing cave. Now I can take that off the bucket list. Thanks for taking such great video.
Think you guys just found the cave of my nightmares!
Spiders Check!
Bats Check!
The only thing missing from my fear trifecta would be venomous snakes....but I am pretty convinced that they were close by....
That was great 👍🏼. Jumping off of mini cave cliffs with bats, spiders, and the love of your life. Well except for the new guy, lol.... can't get much better than that
That water couldn't have smelled too well. Very interesting video. Thanks guys...
Great to see ya'll again.... I'm with ya.... Capt'n Rick .... Mississippi. USA
Hi everyone always enjoy the episodes. Good move to get out of the cyclone area. Hope kiwi Dave did a good repair on the support can only assume he is from New Zealand. Hope you resolve the computer issue without too much grief
Cheers from down under.
OK that river ride up there to the Batcave is the freaking most awesome thing I’ve ever seen. Thanks for sharing
My Happy Sunday Wynn Video !!
Dave seems like a super nice guy
What a cool freaking place! That's off the beatin path. One of the best vids so far. Great crew and welcome to the newbie. Loved it.
Since you are going on down the canal and onto the Pacific, when you get to Tonga there are 2 caves to explore. One you can get to by small boat and the other you must swim into. I will enjoy seeing you there.
Fantastic cave experience. Wow
Glad Curiosity is back in the picture. Great episode. Ready for the Pacific!!!!!!!!!!
Yup, that had to be the nastiest water known to mankind! Hope none of you come down with some sort of creeping crud from those caves. That would be the very last adventure I personally would have taken....HATE the spiders and things that go bump in the night! How cool to have another crew member join in the fun!
I`ll bet poor Dan had a little trouble with headroom on the boat.....So fun watching all these goings-on....Cheers from FROZEN Wyoming.
Wow, loved this video!
Y'all are brave to say the least. I can do bats but spiders... NOPE! Wait Dave is 6'-5"? Good grief. What a great guide y'all had. Seems like people are really nice and always willing to help. Well, Safe travels. Oh... 🎉WELCOME DAVE🎉 ☺
you kids really produce some the coolest videos on yt, thanks for all you do!
Another fab video. Seriously brave ladies. I would have freaked out. Kudos Jason for leaving the branch bump in the video for us. It was like 3D action. Felt like we were really there. Oh and welcome aboard newbie. 😁
Love all the fun adventures! Thanks for sharing as always!
Just a WOW, never thought about Panama, mmm may consider, its on the "Bucket List"
Yay, another fun and informative video. Keep up the great work.
You took non-waterproof equipment in there? Man, you're a lot braver than I am. All I need is a light drizzle and my cameras go down for the count. Glad yours held up. Love the bats and the creepy-crawlies in the cave, that's my kind of adventure! Great vid!
That ticks all the fear boxes-small dark place, bats, spiders! But looks like you all had a great time. Thanks for another excellent video.
so glad I saw your zip lock baggy oil filter idea, that will stick with me forever when I get my Cat in the water. Cheers Guys.
I can't believe you went in there! I am impressed with all of your sense of adventure!
😀
That is the first one that I don't think I'd do... BUT.. it was very cool to see you guys do it haha.
Wow, what a great video! The new guy Dan seems cool too! - Thank for another wonderful video!
Caves, bats and big ass spiders maybe not. Excellent adventure as usual.
You guys are brave,thumbs up to you all!
WOW!!! I've seen a lot of adventure videos, and I'm in the middle of watching all of yours right now (this is 102) but I've got to say, and I've never said it before, I hope you tipped this guy. Awesome private native guides like him make you wonder why anyone would go through a far more expensive tour company using the same guides.
Welcome new Crew Member!! Another terrifying and exciting adventure!! All those bats, spiders and More!! Plus walking through all that water.... Bet you did a lot of homework about the cave before going inside it!!!!! But still , nothing compares to actually going in. (Wonder what the Texan thought??) Thank you for sharing!!!!!!!
This was very interesting, and the batcave was quite proper for the recent Halloween holyday, since one has to overcome a multitude of commonly held phobias, to go through that cave, let alone bathing in that pool. Still, as an adventure it was one-of-a-kind, and a genuine test of course. In addition, thanks for the video. If you didn't record it, most viewers would've never experienced such a thing.
Now this one I enjoyed, got a thumbs up from me.
Awesome, as always.
This made up for the boring coffee episode. Love following you guys on your adventures, keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing.
Epic Adventure Guys !! Well done !! Kisses from Vancouver !!
Jason, Don't think that awesome split screen time-lapse went unnoticed!
Hi All, One of your best adventures ever!!!! Really enjoyed that!
That was one of my favorite or maybe even my most favorite video of you guys. Awesome!!!
Great video! I really liked the caves Your videos really make me want to go to Central America once we finish sailing the Caribbean
Yet another brilliant vlog. Keep them coming please.
Lovely episode!!
Nooooo no no no no!! This is great to watch... from far, far away!! The heeby jeebies! I love bats, but the spiders and the other things... brrrr!
Another awesome vid -- the cave adventure so amazing!
That is one insane adventure (the cave) guys, glad to see your Canadian crew is as tough as you Texans, excellent video.
Hey this is really cool!
*Sees spider on wall*
Nope, Ill wait outside.
Haha, right??
wow that cave was awesome, looked fun!
That was the most horrifying thing I've ever seen on RUclips. You guys are freaking insane. But very entertaining.
O..M..G.. !! Can you guys get any more intense? Fabulous video. 😊👍👌🕷🦐⛵️⚓️🍷
Talk about a hazing for the new guy on that adventure! :P Poor Dave....
The beginnings of a good horror movie...
After you guys run your engine for awhile you should check your oil filter again since your only doing it (hand tight) thanks for the great video
Jeff Robbins ...yeah, I was wondering about that as well. In regular vehicle engines, I would hand tighten, then turn a 1/8 to 1/4 turn with an oil filter wrench. Would also spread a thin coat of oil onto the oil filter gasket to help with the seal.
jb hann correct,always. You put the used oil on the gasket too help soften and seal the filter
Jeff Robbins I always use fresh oil and never use a wrench to tighten.
TheRetiredtech if it works it works, but I was always told (taught) that the old oil would soften the gasket not just lubricate for the 1/8 turn with the wrench the only reason I even said anything is I worry about these guys I've watched them when they first started camping lol a long time.... I'm sure Jason checked it after they ran the motor for awhile
Baggie for oil change. Brilliant. Why didn’t I think of that as I dropped oil all over my boat? 😁
Hope you have a good supply of oil absorption pads aboard! Also if in the boondocks and that bracket broke it can be repaired overnight with Marine tex.
+Robert Parnoff We'll keep that in mind.
So do salt water vessels (or fresh water even) require more frequent oil changes?
Nothing to do with it==== Or I don't know what you're asking.
Very, Very cool video!!! Thanks for the awesome experience...
Welcome Dan :) FYI - I was creeped out from the time you entered the cave until you came out! WAY too many crrepy-crawlys, bats fine.. guano/spiders no thanks lol. Great episode guys, Cheers from PEI Canada, Bryan.
Great adventure vlog, loved this one guys.
Well, that was certainly interesting. What a great adventure you guys are having in Panama.
I could well imagine that many bats would freak you out! I know they would me. What an experienced!
