- As a sailor evolves, so does their boat. And that’s what this conversation is about.

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 HH55 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.

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.
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’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

Thank you Frank and Mary Grace for hosting Jason and Niki. These videos have been a great learning experience enhanced by your personalities and knowledge. Happy New Year to you all!
Wow you said it perfectly. :)
“Why Not Factor…” - this is what I’m taking with me after watching this. How awesome was this?! Thank you again Frank and MG for allowing us to peek into your lives onboard. ❤❤❤
I discovered and started watching the Wynns back at 50k subscribers. With 524k subscribers now in a short time shows they are delivering on quality. Quality videography, stories, adventures and now super high quality boats. I think they are showing the future of adventure cruising.
Fresh cup-o-coffee and the Wynns. Great way to spend News Years Day. Fair winds.
FRANK your "why not" attitude is so insightful and uplifting ! Have worked all my life and now hope to "apply" that empowering positive aspiration to my remaining years. God bless you and Mary Grace. 🙏
Mary sums up the major benefit of performance @7’40” ‘the shorter the passages the more safer it is because the more weather you can avoid’. If you are a newer sailor don’t be afraid of performance or racing type boats. The reason race boats are that way is because it’s easier, safer and lighter not because it requires more skill. The bad habits you pick up from sailing an old heavy boat will put you back years. As an ex professional sailor I strongly advocate for modern performance boats for cruising. This boat is just the beginning of new safer, more fun explorer boats. Well done Wynns on giving this exposure.
It was very heartwarming to hear Frank and Mary Grace talk so passionately about their vessel. Happy New Year!
I want to thank all four of you for sharing your experiences with us. I am not a sailor and probably never will be, but I am fascinated by your experiences, and it was great to listen to your conversation. It was enlightening about living a full life, whether it is on a sail boat or in a house. Thank you for living a full life and bringing us along on the journey.
I, for one, love hearing people's stories. I'm trying to write one of my own. After watching channels like yours for years, I've decided to take the plunge! Thanks for the inspiration!
@14:45 Did he really say "I want to fly my washing machine?!?!" THAT'S HILARIOUS!
Fascinating vlog, I have to acknowledge the class, bravery and inspiration that they have shown with your time on Ticket To Ride. Frank and Mary-Kate are an incredible crew and example of taking life by the scruff of the neck and enjoying it. I wish our finances were comparable, as I would follow their example without hesitation.
Such a gem of an interview with fantastic people. Happy New Year!
Thank you Frank and Mary Grace for sharing your love of sailing with us. Not only did Jason and Niki learn and find confidence in their new adventure, I got to learn so much with you. You’re truly a gracious couple and I have really enjoyed the time you shared with us.
It’s a new year and another great day with the Wynns!🎉❤😊
It adds so much to this channel that you include the many exiting stories of the people you meet 🙂
HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Thank You for keeping us entertained and inspired! I love everything you do!
You all seem so comfortable together like friends forever which was nice to watch all your time together. When you leave TTR we will miss them but makes us more anxious to get to the NEW BOAT .Stay safe all of you ,and HAPPY NEW YEARS TO YOU ALL !!!!!
Frank reminds me of John McEnroe. Great couple and very knowledgeable. All four of you seem so happy and smart. Happy 2023 and great sailing for all of you. Really enjoyed watching this episode.
What a great couple. Glad you got to travel in their cat. Be safe.
Such great conversation. Thank you all for sharing this with us. Very insightful and you all are very genuine. We love Y'all. Happy New Year!
You have the same sound and feel to your conversation as when you stood on the dock in Florida clapping your hands and gave out the most happy squeal "we're going sailing".
It's so good to see that enthusiasm come to the fore when let's face it you have taken on a whole new challenge. Thank you, because your journey is keeping a very old man feeling younger than he really should,
H N Years to Nikki and Jason and to the Wynn community. It seems we’re all here for a little adventure, community and humility. 2023 is going to be exciting- new vessel and all. Again, I can’t wait!
Love hearing about this lifestyle! Thank you all for sharing!
Happy New Year and all that jazz. Many thanks to Frank and Mary Grace for hosting you guys - I have very much enjoyed their take on life afloat.
Thanks guys! Their passion makes it easy to listen to I love how much they love their life!
Great interview - thank you all for the interesting take on boats, sails, and sailing life. Keep'em coming!
I enjoyed this format. 😀 I like hearing different perspectives and experiences. Thank you for sharing this with us. I hope you all have a happy and fruitful new year! 🥳
Love the stories angle, there are so many who have chosen the sailing journey and the types of vessels they choose to fly with are chock full of lessons for those of us who are contemplating such a life...Thanks and all the best for 2023 you two! Can't wait to watch and listen to what you come up with!
🙏🙏🙏
👍😎👍
Got to say guys, this was am AMAZING vid for me.
The excitement among all of you throughout this and the previous sailing vids with Frank and Mary Grace shown through, and I felt it within me.
I have not sailed a vessel myself. I have been on a few sailboat sailing tours. And I have a desire to learn to sail. But I will have to pace myself when I begin so as not to upset my lovely wife.
I'm excited for you, Nikki, and Jason, on your future with this new vessel. I'm looking forward to this new chapter on your lives. And I THANK YOU so much for sharing these exciting tines in your lives.
Best of life to you two, and to Frank and Mary Grace in 2023.
I worked as a cave guide in southeast Alaska one summer and we had a dock at our work site; being a boat lover but from a landlocked area (yes technically you can sail the Mississippi, but it's a little different from the ocean) I was absolutely fascinated. A few of them welcomed us to come and see their homes, and honestly I think it would be a really wonderful way to experience Alaska!
Hapy New Year! Thanks to Frank and Mary Grace and here's to new adventures on your new boat, can't wait.
This was one of my favorite episodes, and I absolutely love the details. 🙏🏻 happy new year to you both!
Thank you so much for that conversation! I'm slowly shopping around over the next three years to get my cruising boat. This helps so much!!!
Excellent! This is an exellent conversation, informative, USEFUL! Many of the questions, concerns, and solutions can be applied to owning, modifying, and operating our motor home. Thanks to all of you.
Wow, what an EXCELLENT series of videos from S/V TTR!!!! I genuinely enjoy the owners (very down to earth, appropriately focused on capabilities of the vessel!) Although I can't wait to be w/ GWTW on passage, I wish this lovely couple would share what they learn on passage in their own YT videos! Gorgeous cat, so capable- great sailors improving their knowledge! Thanx 1MM to both of you (couples) for outstanding footage, the right blend of tech & B roll and taking us along. Super grateful for it!!!
Beautiful boat, thank you Frank & Mary Grace for sharing it with all of us! Happy New Year and safe sailing!
It is so very nice to see two couples enjoying a conversation, a passion, a life style, and especially a warm growing friendship. Very enjoyable indeed.
Happy New Year’s, thanks for keeping us entertained with such great videos of your journey.
Happy New Year and thanks for sharing your journey to deciding what kind of boat to get and Frank and Mary Grace for being so open and helpful.
Thank you for sharing your honest experiences, we're considering switching from overlanding and learning to sail, and your videos are so helpful to give us a real insight. xo
@26:55 Thanks all four of you! Excellent, excellent conversation!
What a wonderful and generous couple Frank and Mary Grace are ❤❤❤❤ Thank you Niki and Jason for bringing us along in your adventures. All the best for the coming year and I'm so looking forward to seeing you sail in your new boat. ⛵⛵😊😊
I love open, and honest conversation. Great info.
Yes i watched to the end. Your filming and material explanation is top shelf. Thank YOU.
Happy New Year to the Wynns!!! Happiness, Health, and wealth to you! ♥️
Thank you, I love the people you introduce us to as much as the sailing.
Such a great perspective on how to identify what you really enjoy and what matters. We are on the same journey with RV. So much more confident and better understanding of expectations and how we'll use it. Laughed at us, 1 day after returning from recent trip we were all within the 25ft footprint of rv in our 2000 sq foot home, even the dogs.
Wow, thanks for the inside look at Frank and Mary’s story. Keep it up loving the videos this year! Happy New Years. Cant wait to see what it brings!
Thanks guys, sadly I won't ever be able to sail like ya'll. But I feel I get a taste of the life style watching your videos. Glad to be along for the ride.
This was very enjoyable listening to all of you go over the ins and outs of sailing. You look like you're living the good life. Keep it up.
Ray
I enjoyed the interview. You answered many of the questions I had. Glad you will include them in your future posts. HNY!
Happy New Year Nikki & Jason! So good seeing you both, along with seeing Frank & Mary Grace. Enjoyed hearing about sailing, & the boat. Happy New Year Frank & Mary Grace!
You guys are amazing. Normally I prefer the active sailing videos, but this was enthralling. Great questions with a fun friendly couple. Truly must watch video. Proof once again why you have been my go to watch since camping days.
This was a FANTASTIC conversation - Frank and Mary Grace are so fun & personable.
Happy 2023 to all of you!
Great Conversation, There Is a Lot to think about, that's why Sailors are so Smart.. Always Thinking.
This was very interesting. I was amazed, fascinated, loving the new-to me, and so much more. I am a junkie when it comes to picking up”never knew” tidbits. I’ll never do what you are doing, but it’s still fun to hear about it. Happy New Year. Looking forward to your new adventures in ‘23.
From a van to this is simply marvelous!
That's why your viewpoints matter.
Bravo and looking foward to what’s next for the channel.
Got to let you go on your futures adventures. Been with you since the days of the RV. My days are numbered and I got to leave for a new adventure of my own. Thank you for those nice videos. I was always happy 😢when on the Sunday morning I could view your latest video. Enjoy your new boat that I won’t see!
Pierre......Best Wishes on your new adventure. I'll see you on the other side!
What a nice couple. Stepped out of the box and went for it. Thank you for your videos. Truly enjoy them.
Happy New Year! These videos have been very and I enjoyed getting to meet Frank and Mary, they have a wonderful cat.. I can’t wait until you take delivery of yours new boat and all the new adventures. 😊🎉
Happy New Year Niki and Jason. wishing you a fantastic 2023.
Guys, sooo excited that THIS YEAR you’ll get your HH44! OMGosh! Life is definitely going up a notch for you guys! Can’t wait to come along w/you on your journeys!! 😉
I love this idea of yours to cover your conversations and decision-making. Thank you.
Happy New Year Nicky & Jason 🎉 much ❤ from Auckland, New Zealand - can't wait to see what 2023 brings for you both and i will be watching your exciting journey ! See you all soon. 😊
Yeah - all that confirms to me: For a first time buy of a boat: just follow your gut - after, of course, a good amount of study and looking at things.
And with experience you will find what your next thing will be.
Thanks for the interesting talk! I am absolutely looking forward to the time when you are taking over your boat! But really also all that you announced for the time in between! I am really excited about your plans for the year!
CU!
Happy New Year Niki&Jason thanks for the Great Videos in 2022. I love watch and dream of Sailing. Be Safe and peace be With You Two.👍🏻
Great interview and thank you for sharing!
Thanks for a great episode. I really enjoyed this. Boat love is a true thing.
We feel all these same things about our J/133, and if we wanted to go full carbon but stay on a mono, I think the Arcona is a fantastic boat. We’re one of the few boats in an anchorage that leaves for fun, and comes back in the evening after a great sail. Also, similar feel about a boat that WANTS to go. Our boat is almost always at 7-8, and If there’s any moderate level of wind, it’s hard to back it off 8-9. I love it! Great video and thanks for the perspective of a really well built, fast, comfortable boat.
Niki youre such a good talker and your sailing knowledge and experience is up there now. You guys really lucked out by sailing with these two as well. Learned a lot just from watching this video. Keep up the great content. Cant wait to see the HH44!
great interview. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely to meet you Frank and Mary, happy sailing, can’t wait to see Jason and Kiki on their HH
Happy new year to both of you lovely people I have been following you for the pass 5 years you both feel like family I am am American living in Portugal after retirement in the states so from Portugal with love the best for 23 can’t wait to see your new catamaran ❤️
I cannot believe that I'm only getting to view your video at 11:35 Sunday night!!! I normally watch it as soon as I awaken in the morning, but I finally just bought my first RV and spent the whole day trying to get everything moved into it... which was quite difficult since I've been battling chronic fatigue and other disabilities for years. All I have to go get tomorrow are my refrigerated and frozen groceries after I clean the refrigerator and freezer. So excited, so exhausted, so overwhelmed, and freezing my tushie off up here in Washington! That being said, I'm now going to watch your video and catch up on what you two are doing. Yeah, so excited!
I love your videos. I watch them all . I don’t even want to have a sail boat . I love my gas 24’ cab . But all your videos are just so good! I can’t see how anyone that’s boat and explorers wouldn’t love your videos. Thanks
Happy new year guys, can't wait to see your new ⛵
Great conversation,enjoyed the content
Enjoyable, informative video with personable people sharing their knowledge and insights.
Happy new year. A great interview with such lovely people. Frank is right. It should be a lot of fun to sail your boat well. And a better, more responsive boat just increases the “grin factor”, without increasing the risk of overloading her. Its a fabulous boat.
You guys are going to have so much fun when you set off with the new catamaran. Soo looking forward to the videos. Cheers
Excellent interview...as usual. Don't have a boat...never will have a boat, but still very interested in the WHOLE experience of sailing and this channel gives me the opportunity to experience it vicariously...it was easy to watch from start to finish.
Great conversation, great video. Can’t wait to see your new boat.
This was a great interview. The TTR folks are awesome! Great discussion and presentation of ideas and experience ✌️
Happy new year and best wishes for the future!
Happy new year whereever you are. Great episode with a very proud owner. And yes ‘why not’. The HH will be a dream boat in many respects.
That was really interesting, I enjoyed this video so much! I also appreciated the editing, because I am not much of a sailor, but things were so well illustrated. I have really learned a lot from you guys, and am inspired to try sailing again. I watched you guys back in the RV days. Fun!
Lovely hair cut, Nikki, with the graduated/sloping bangs (versus straight)! Happy New Year and future sailing on your new boat, Nikki and Jason!
I always watch to the end lol I am so glad you got to have this experience with wonderful people before you pick up your new boat. The universe could not have set up anything more perfect!
Yes, that was very informative.
thank you all, very much
Frank and Mary are Amazing People! Love from Germany!❤️🤝 Happy New Years Everyone!
Very cool insight! Thanks for sharing!!
Excellent Interview!
All the very best for 2023, cannot wait to see your new home.
Happy new year for 2023 Niki and Jason from South Africa.
Great show wonderful couple I think we all feel better now onward and upward we can't hardly wait
This was as always a nice informative video.
Oh yeah, Happy New Year to all and pray 2023 will be good for ALL.
Love this couple… Relationship goals!
Thank you Frank and Mary Grace!
Interesting conversation. I will likely never buy a boat because my wife doesn't like them but one can always dream. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
Happy New Year. Looking forward to watching the adventure in 2023
