Sails Update
A few weeks ago we made a Buyer Beware video about how we ordered sails and after the final payment, we were ghosted. Today we have an update and are happy to say the whole debacle has come to a close.

Hello Nikki and Jason! Would you please add my email to your listing? I’ve been a long-time viewer, but for some reason I haven’t received your videos for the last several weeks. I’ve checked my spam folder, but for some reason I think my email just dropped. Thanks, and sorry for any inconvenience — you’ll see my address below.

Nothing wrong Kathleen – they posted their last full video on Dec. 19 and they’ve been having a short break for the holidays. They did post about the break on social media (you can follow Gone With the Wynns on IG, FB, or Twitter) and on Patreon if you’d like to follow them there.
Never fear – they should be back tomorrow!

Great news that this ended well! And really appreciate the buyer beware video, this helps all the sailors who are at the mercy of companies in the boating industry.

I am really confused as to why you gave the money to others. Maybe it’s something I don’t understand when you receive something free.
You have the money returned so you have the funds to purchase your sails. Yet when company’s offer to give you the sails you don’t pay them instead you give the money to others.
Seems to me you are doing the same thing to those company’s that you had done to you by the unscrupulous sails manufactures in South Africa.
You’re taking the money and running with it.
Why did you not pay those wonderful companies giving you the sails? They are losing money to replace your sails. Just seems to me you’re being unscrupulous not paying for your sails to those companies helping you.

I am sure that Ullman and Dimension-Polyant both jumped at the chance to give the Wynns sails in order to get their products in front of the Wynns world-wide audience every week. Companies pay huge money to get product placement ads like that, so this is a Win-Win-Wynn for all involved.

I love a story with a happy ending!

I shudder to think of how many sailors don’t have the VOICE that Nicky and Jason do, and have been bilked out of money from unscrupulous “licensed” lofts/companies like that.
It really is Buyer Beware when dealing with International companies, even if you think you are taking all the appropriate precautions.

You need a VOICE to be Heard…..
and I’m happy, really happy you have it and powerful enough to be heard so far and high.
That’s a really good end to a sad story.
( new sails, new sea, and happy you’ll be )
