A new adventure begins as we set sail for what almost feels like the first time again. We’re jumping off the deep end here and no doubt many will call us cavalier. Because we’re taking a 47-foot NEEL Trimaran, a type of boat we have never sailed and have zero experience on, out to sea on an offshore passage.
Would we have liked a test sail first??? Of course! But it was a quick handover, the weather was fickle, and here we are. But it’s certainly not our first offshore passage and we like a good challenge. And a challenge is exactly what we got!
Grab your popcorn because this one is a rollercoaster.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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

I was anchored right off the entrance to the marina by the aircraft carrier and watched this exact Neel dock/leave the dock multiple times. Every time was a struggle. I don't think it's a problem with the neel. It's a problem with the currents/winds and REALLY tight docking they have in that marina. But EVERYONE struggled with it.

Be advised, you don’t need to be wealthy to go sailing! You do have to be willing to take a bit of risk on a filthy boat and know what to look for to avoid a money pit. The most obvious way to get a good boat cheap is to look in the marinas at the end of the season in norther states where the owner is about to get a bill to haul out an older boat they just paid dockage on all year, and didn’t get on the water. Look for dirty boats. Dirty means lack of use, not necessarily a lack of maintenance. You MUST keep a realistic budget for fixing things, but that doesn’t mean you have to go to West Marine and swipe your credit card. Every boating town has a salvage parts chandlery, and a block is just a block. It doesn’t have to be new, it doesn’t have to be shiny, it doesn’t have to have the latest and greatest stuff for sailing to be fun. I got my boat for literally $502.50 and paid the marina an extra $125 to store it for a month until I could get it home. I don’t store it at a marina ($500 for the winter) I store it in my backyard for free. Before I started fixing things, I scrubbed it down with soap and water, and found a decent boat under the grime. I didn’t buy new lines, I washed them with a little borax and dish soap. My point is, you can absolutely do it, it really does work.

Another great video! I skippered a 42ft Norman Cross trimaran early eighties for a couple of years. I’ve sailed a lot and the trimaran is the most comfortable and reassuring in a blow. She was ketch rigged and preferred full working sail up to the top of force seven. If I reefed too early the ride became uncomfortable as she no longer “flew” over the waves.She sailed herself on all points except downwind with the wheel lashed. No auto pilot. A hint for your mainsail. The boom looked to be set too low on the topping lift so you had greater than 90 degrees at the gooseneck. I always lift my boom to an acute angle before hoisting so that the halyard doesn’t have to lift the boom as well, and also keeps pressure off the leach. . I also ease the mainsheet a lot to ease the loads on the halyard. Once you’ve completed the hoist you can ease the topping lift. Now you can make final adjustments to the hoist/ outhaul etc before bearing away and sheeting in. Hope this helps. Keep up the good work.i love you guys.

That is a real test to make do with equipment, when all is not working as it should! Yikes, it is not your vessel and you have to protect it, at all costs! Make a good Log of all that you went through; it still looked like a lot of Fun! It is a great testimony of Sailing being akin to Flying. Definition of Flying: "Hours of Boredom, and Moments of Stark Terror"! I sailed in weather like that on a large lake in Colorado! A storm was building over the mountain behind us, and we had No Wind! Then the Front came and we sailed Five terrifying Miles, tacking around a point and bailing for all I was worth, plus handling the Jib Sail! With a three year old child, a Beagle dog, and two people in a Marconi Sailboat! TERRIFYING! Good Job, guys! Coffee tasted especially good watching this Video!

It's always hard to evaluate or give an impression of a boat you've never been on before when you're dealing with broken rigging, unfamiliar rigging and noises, and all the other stresses that come sailing. To be fair, regardless of hull type, beating is never pleasant, so it's a real shame that's what you were greeted with for the first half of your sail. I think it would have been a completely different experience had the wind models been accurate and you had a beam reach the whole way. While cats are jerkier than monos in rough waters, the tri seemed maybe a little MORE jerky, kind of bashing back and forth in short intervals, and porpoising in between. Didn't look pleasant, to say the least. Then again, the sea looked like an angry washing machine. Hope you get a better sail later and are able to see what that tri can really do. Thanks, again, for sharing all of this with us. Stay safe out there.

In order to get an realistic exposure to the Neel boats, one should watch a video of one being sailed by someone who has already become familiar and facile with them. I suggest the series of videos by Igor stropnik. He recently sailed a Neel 51 across open ocean for 100s of miles and provides a much more accurate picture of their boats.
@jamesaron1967 Жыл бұрын
Good advice. I like James from Cary on Sailing channel who also owns a Neel 51 and lives on it. A wealth of information on the Neel 51 as well as general sailing advice in his channel. That said, the Neel 51 is a very different yacht from the 47. Very different. Most commenters here are getting an inaccurate perception of Neel yachts and trimarans in general from just one video. It's reminiscent of the Ruby Rose 'expose' of the shoddy Neel 47 they visited that was hastily assembled for a boat show. Shafted again, sigh.
@murrayandjeandunnettcobine4120 Жыл бұрын
Well done you did it! Some observations that you may or may not know: The power of the sail has 3 sources: Angle of attack to wind direction, Depth and Twist. When you have a short chop (distance between waves), you need to use the sails to drive the boat through the waves when on the wind. At the start of the video, your headsail was twisted and not fully sheeted. Get the boat powered up by sheeting both sails in tighter. (A trimaran will heal more than your cat). It will be more comfortable with less pitch and roll, and you will point higher into the wind. At the 22 minute mark, I noticed that in hardly any wind in the morning, your main had very little shape or belly. Your headsail had a lot more and looked about correct. The theory is your draft should be up to about 13% of the sail foot length for very light wind. The aerofoil produces more power, but the yacht will point into the wind less. The bottom third of the sail is controlled by the outhaul at the clew of the mainsail on the boom. So for a 20 metre foot, the draft could be up to 2.6m! As the wind increases, it can come down to 9 percent. (1.8m) In extreme conditions it could be down to only 5% (1m). Use less twist as the wind speed increases, (leach has less curve). Another tip, use the sails to balance the helm, take weight off the rudder. If you are having to use a lot of rudder to stop the yacht rounding up, tighten the headsail and let out the traveller so it de-powers the main until the rudder is nearer the centreline. Please I understand you are sailing a strange boat! But the above applies to all sailboats. Interesting video tks. Regards Murray.

It's Sunday morning with “Gone with Wynns!” Yes, it’s a weekly favorite and a glorious way to start a week. I would believe with three hulls, you would provide a sturdier ride across the waves. But, I guess mother nature and the ocean dictates your ride.
@kevinfisher1345 Жыл бұрын
Yes and no. It is a more stable platform than a mono, but not as stable as a cat. A tri is changing from sailing on one hull to two hulls, and it could be two different hulls at times. A good way to look at a tri is to think of it as a mono on training wheels where it can be on the center wheel(s) or on one or the other of the training wheels as well. Although in the case of a tri, it will be more alternating between which one of the two outer hulls, with at times being only on the main center hull.
@enderdragoon Жыл бұрын
The sound of the coffee grinding fading into the back with the end was a nice touch :P So, seeing more about the Neel I'm starting to learn more about this boat, some things seem pretty nifty about it but the claim to fame with Tri's, so far as I've read about them, is their motion underway and performance vs a cat (Tri or Cat > Mono ya? lol) Seems like she wanted to hobby horse over the crests and fall side to side a lot but beating into sharp quick waves like that is always rough all around. Need to do a side by side with a cat and tri to get a real sense of it. Seems like most of the things we could pick apart with it are just owner config things but the outboard winch situation is way too exposed for my taste, that and a raised helm that's not *really* well enclosed are kinda my biggest concerns with any blue water boat.

I guess that as with RVs, every boat is full of quirks and busted, or near-busted, things the owners are familiar with and work around every day without even thinking about it. Kinda makes the boat delivery thing more of an adventure than one might otherwise expect, which is a great lesson in itself. So, how does one normally do a basic checkout before heading out to sea on a delivery?

It is so helpful to me to see that even experienced sailors have their doubts during a passage and unknown problems that arise and work through them. Thank you for keeping it real.

A, "Dear, I'm kind of tired of being here. What do you say we move south?" B, "You know the weather is going to be bad for the next week or so." A, "I know, let's get a couple of fools... I mean friends to sail it down for us." 😂😂 Great job sailing an unfamiliar boat Nicky & Jason. 👍👍

Reminds me of a lot of the power boats of the 70’s. Tri-Hulls are wonderful on calm water and can be fast. They will beat the hell of you in any chop. That’s why a lot of the bass boats went back to single hull. I warned folks including La Vagabond.

You two did great! Love and liked all your videos. I can't wait to see u 2 on your new catamaran.

Hopefully you get it figured out before your next sail. It's got to be even more nerve racking when it is not YOUR boat. Good to see you back on the water. Even better to have you in person.

It’s tough doing a shake down on a boat during a passage. You did great.

I'm retired and have considered boat life or even cruise ship life. Either way off land. I have to admit you guys inspire me.

Fighter jets and ambulances! Weird sounds on a boat but we love the experience!!!
