About below deck sailing yacht.
Capt. Glenn and his comeback team Daisy Kelliher, Gary King and Colin MacRae resume their responsibilities aboard Parsifal III, along with new, dynamic crew members, as they set sail in Sardinia, Italy.
Capt. Glenn realizes that his laid-back leadership style has allowed his crew to become too comfortable and starts taking charge of quality control in the interior department, much to Daisy's dismay. In the galley, Chef Ilesha's cooking impresses the guests, but her indecisiveness and co-dependency lead to time-management issues between courses, which causes her to self-destruct. On deck, strong personalities collide, and a power struggle results in a near mutiny, as Gary clashes with his new overconfident deckhand, Chase.
Two overlapping love triangles further complicate the dynamics on-board, and a shocking hookup puts Colin, Daisy and Gary’s friendship in jeopardy.
With a near collision, fire, crew rebellion, gruesome guest injury and two different potentially season-ending engine failures, this is the most captivating and unpredictable season yet of Below Deck Sailing Yacht.
Meet the Below Deck season 10 cast: who's who in the Bravo series
It's time to meet the cast of the superyacht St. David.
It's time to set sail on the largest boat in Below Deck history! Below Deck season 10 features the massive 197-foot superyacht St. David with Captain Lee, the "Stud of the Sea" at the helm.
In the 10th season of the beloved Bravo franchise, the St. David calls the port of St. Lucia home. Captain Lee has two familiar faces with him this season in Chef Rachel Hargrove and Chief Stew Fraser Olender. Together they'll navigate a new crew.
Bravo has provided brief bios for the returning crew members as well as the newcomers. So let's get to know the cast of Below Deck season 10!
Captain Lee Rosbach
"Captain Harold Lee Rosbach has spent more than three decades in the yachting industry. Born and raised in landlocked Michigan, he discovered his untapped love for the water while managing restaurants in Turks & Caicos. It was then that an acquaintance invited him to serve as a mate on a sailboat delivery to earn extra cash. At 35, Lee obtained his captain's license and left the restaurant business behind to pursue his newfound passion. Since then, the Running Against The Tide author has commanded more than a dozen super yachts. Lovingly known as the 'Stud of the Sea,' Lee values the special bonds he forms on deck and always puts the safety of everyone on board above all else. Lee is excited to return to the Caribbean this season with familiar faces Chef Rachel Hargrove and Chief Stew Fraser Olender as he adjusts to new super yacht, St. David."
Rachel Hargrove, chef
"Originally from Tampa, Fla., Rachel Hargrove is a cosmopolitan yacht chef with an extensive repertoire of culinary skills. Although predominantly self-taught, Rachel attended the Culinary Institute of America and held an apprenticeship at the Michelin-starred restaurant Quatro Passi in Nerano, Italy. After spending time in Thailand, Japan, India and Italy to expand her craft, Rachel revels in her wide range of cuisines — from molecular gastronomy to gluten-free pasta, she is unphased by almost any charter guest preference sheet. A talented and experienced chef, Rachel admits her demanding professionalism can be polarizing to others. No matter their opinion, Rachel is always sure to stand her ground on deck."
Fraser Olender, chief stew
"With a passion for luxury hospitality and travel, it was a no-brainer for Fraser to join the yachting industry four years ago. He got his start on a motor yacht in Naples, Italy, and has never looked back. Prior to yachting, Fraser worked in commercial bookings for leading model agencies in London. In the off-season, he loves to travel to picturesque destinations, staying at the world's finest hotels with the dream to one day open his own. Returning to the Caribbean to work under Captain Lee again, Fraser is thrilled to be chief stew on St. David. However, when the charter guests get too demanding, he must prove his worth as a department lead."
Ross McHarg, bosun
"Leading the deck team this season is Bosun Ross McHarg. Originally from the UK, the British yachtie has spent the last 15 years living all over the world. Most recently, his travels have landed him in Asia, where he has set up base. Twelve years ago, Ross found yachting through teaching ski seasons in Europe and abandoned the snow for the sand without a second thought. With his love of travel and meeting new people, yachting was the perfect career move. A seasoned bosun, Ross brings experience and wisdom to his team, but his flirty ways get him in hot water with the crew."

Luis Antonio 'Tony' Duarte, deckhand
"Originally from Costa Rica, deckhand Luis Antonio 'Tony' Duarte is no stranger to the seas. An adrenaline junkie, Tony has experience as a dive master in South Africa, whale-watching guide in Costa Rica and a zip-liner in the Bahamas. When he's not working in beautiful, remote locations, Tony enjoys surfing, fishing and cliff jumping. A man of nomadic nature with a passion for travel, Tony adventures from place to place but is looking forward to calling St. David his home for the charter season. With prior experience on smaller boats, Tony welcomes the challenge aboard his first super yacht."
Ben Willoughby, deckhand
"Born and raised on the Gold Coast of Australia, deckhand Ben Willoughby is a self-described 'ocean child at heart.' Inspired by a childhood friend's yachtie lifestyle, Ben first took to the high seas in 2020 when he joined a mega yacht crew in France. Combining his passion for fitness with his love of the water, Ben has worked as both a deckhand and personal trainer on yachts for the past three years. A social guy who firmly believes 'a Pina Colada is always a good decision,' Ben is eager to bring the party onboard. This thrill-seeking Aussie is determined to stand out on the deck of the St. David."
Hayley De Sola Pinto, stew
"Hailing from Cornwall, England, charismatic new stew Hayley De Sola Pinto is excited to cruise the Caribbean waters. During most of the year, Hayley is an advanced aesthetics practitioner for her self-built business Classen Aesthetics. Her love of travel and meeting new people has led her to work on and off yachts since she was 23. With her humor and empathetic personality, Hayley specializes in making charter guests feel welcome and at home on St. David. However, her admittedly loud and over-the-top personality often gets her into the mix of drama onboard."
Katie Glaser, deckhand
"Deckhand Katie Glaser first fell in love with the glamorous and fast-paced yachting industry when she moved from Colorado to Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. Since starting her boating career as a stew three years ago, Katie has built an extensive resume as a deckhand and first mate on a variety of yachts. While Katie has worked in different corporate fields, including IT recruiting, account management and beverage sales, she has always had an affinity for the service industry. Katie spends nearly as much time in the water as she does on it, being a fan of snorkeling, wakeboarding and swimming. Always up for an adventure, this extroverted yachtie is eager to prove she has what it takes."
Alissa Humber, stew
"A born and bred Floridian, Alissa Humber found herself diving headfirst into yachting just over two years ago. Now residing in Miami, Alissa spends her time working as a stew on temporary yacht jobs. During the off season, Alissa loves to shop and is enamored by the gorgeous, colorful fashion in her city. She also embraces nature and enjoys kayaking or hiking in the Sunshine State. Working as a stew aboard St. David, Alissa prides herself on pleasing the charter guests and ensuring they have the best time onboard. However, when conflict emerges between her and another stew, tensions rise amongst the entire crew."
Camille Lamb, deckhand/stew
"Coming from a family of merchant mariners, boating has always been in Camille’s blood. With sailing experience since she was 9, Camille is a natural-born yachtie with a love for the water, the beach and traveling. An avid singer and songwriter as well, Camille competed on American Idol last year. Upon her elimination, Camille found herself lost and returned to her roots on the water. With just her sailing experience from childhood, Camille secured a position on a day-charter yacht in the Virgin Islands. Since then, Camille has had more formal yachting training under her belt with work experience in Miami and Los Angeles. Camille joins St. David this season working both on deck and inside the yacht as a deck/stew, but when she's split between the two departments, she loses motivation on board."
Below Deck season 10 airs on Mondays on Bravo, with new episodes streaming on Peacock the next day in the US and on Hayu in the UK.

“Below Deck” — The Netflix Binge Cruisers Will Love
Doug Parker
- October 20, 2020
Netflix is known for introducing binge-worthy content to the platform.
And the latest has to be “Below Deck” — a reality series that came to Netflix in the form of two seasons in August 2020.
But the show itself was filmed way back in 2013 and has a total of 7 seasons and 105 episodes.
So why are people raving about the show?
It’s a glimpse into a luxury escape — and the drama onboard
Below Deck follows the lives of crew members who live and work onboard a mega-yacht.
Season one follows the likes of Captain Lee Rosback, First Officer Aleks Taldykin, Chief Stewardess Adriene Gang, Second Engineer C.J. LeBeau, Chef Ben Robinson and Deckhand David Bradberry in their everyday working and personal lives onboard the 164-foot Honor .
The first release of the series averaged 1.4 million total viewers per episode.
All of the crew that is hired to be part of the show are licensed and certified, which involves a two-week course.
Captain Lee says: “ Each of the crew members has to have an STCW, which is a standard set by the maritime industry for watch-keeping and just being on board—it’s basic first aid, firefighting. It’s a two-week course and a certification they have to have before they’re allowed to work on yachts.”
The crew is filmed 24 hours a day , seven days a week working on the boat while being filmed by both hidden cameras and a crew.
But what makes the show so addictive?
For reality TV lovers, Below Deck is one of those shows with a brand that is instantly bingeable. This is because of the on-screen romances, drama, and professional and personal turmoils that are captured on screen.
Noah Samton, the senior vice president of the production for Bravo says that the yachting industry “attracts the kind of people that are good for TV. First of all, they’re a lot of young, attractive people. A lot of people that are sort of escaping their lives for some reason or have this adventurous streak in them. We’re really good at finding the people who are going to wear it on their sleeves.”
And as with other reality TV shows, the cameras capture it all, sharing every aspect of their lives onboard.
The only place that they aren’t filmed is in the bathroom, but only one crew member can be in one at any given time.
Members have tried to get away with their personal antics being held in places without a camera — in one instance, a laundry room — but the crew quickly clocks on.
It’s this close look into their lives, combined with the personalities and the exotic locations, that make Below Deck so exciting to watch.
How is the show really filmed? Here are some of the secrets
When the show was first released there were some questions from fans about how ‘real’ the working lives were of those on screen. But the cast actually work as real-life stewards, sometimes up to 16+ hours a day, and sleep on tiny bunks.
T he charter company actually pays each cast member a base salary; the cast is also paid an appearance fee by the production company. And they’re allowed to take tips by guests. All their food is provided by the boat’s chef, as would be in the case if they were regular employees.
The cast is not allowed to speak to, or interact with, the production team and cameraman in order to keep in line with the show’s guidelines.
Captain Lee is actually in charge of the boat, including when and where they can sail and anything that needs to be considered in terms of the weather. He can also fire anyone at any time. Production is not allowed to have any influence on this.
The boat costs upwards of $300,000 per week to hire — which is why all filming is done during the six-week period.
All cast members get three days off per season during the six weeks of filming on the boat. They can stay in a hotel room on those days, but they’re not allowed to communicate with each other.
There are also advantages for the guests on the boat, as they are given a fifty percent discount on their journey — although they pay their own money to rent the boat and for their tips.
What’s the future for Below Deck?
So far, Netflix has releases only two series of the show, but we can expect more. For the ones that can’t get the show’s pristine sceneries out of their mind, sites like borrowaboat.com have boats and yachts for every taste available to rent, perfect to recreate the sailing lifestyle.
While there are only two series so far released by Netflix, we can expect more. And the new Below Deck season eight will likely premiere sometime in the fall of 2020.
With eight seasons now, it’s likely that there could be more in the future and that audiences will be able to continue to enjoy the drama-filled lives of those who work below deck and onboard the ship.

Mustique motoryacht in the 8th season of Below Deck Mediterranean
The 8th season of Below Deck Mediterranean embarked on the Italian riviera onboard Mustique, a 55m (180ft) motoryacht by Trinity Yachts.
Mustique features an impressive retro interior and spacious outdoor areas that truly shine when combined with the Mediterranean coast of that particular season.
Mustique can be chartered from €230,000 / week . Her last asking price for sale was at $19,000,000.
Yachts featured in Below Deck Sailing Yacht (Spin off)
Parsifal iii luxury sailboat.
Parsifal III appears in the two seasons of the spin-off Below Deck Sailing yacht, captained by Glenn Shepard around Greece (season 1) and Croatia (season 2). Launched in 2005 by Perini Navi, this 177,2ft superyacht was designed by Remi Tessier. She can accommodate a total of 12 guests and 9 crew.
She is available from $237,500 to $274,000 per week to charter her around the Mediterranean and the Caribbean winter time.
In 2016, her selling asking price was $20,5 million.
Yachts featured in Below Deck Adventure (Spin off)
Motoryacht mercury (previously known as malibu and kermit).
In the fourth spin off of Below Deck, the now infamous decided to spice things up a little. Instead of the usual Mediterranean or Caribbean routine, Below Deck went to the less explored (but extremely breathtaking) Norway.
For this new serie filled with adventure, Below Deck picked the motoryacht Mercury, ex Malibu and Kermit, to explore the Fjords Norway is famous for.
Mercury is a 50m motoryacht built by the dutch shipyard Amels, and designed by Terence Disdale.
She can accomodate up to 12 guests and 12 crew onboard. No doubt, that should be enough for this new exciting season.
Mercury is available for charter from $170,000 a week . Her current selling price is $13,500,000 .
Yachts featured in Below Deck Down Under (Spin off in Australia)
Thalassa (keri lee iii): the motoryacht in below deck down under season 1.
Thalassa was the vessel of choice for the Australian Spin off of Below Deck. The real name of the yacht isn’t actually Thalassa but Keri Lee III.
The 181ft (55m) yacht was built by the American shipyard Trinity Yachts and features amenities such as a gym, a jacuzzi and 6 magnificent cabins. The perfect vessel to sail in style the waters of Northeastern Australia.
Keri Lee has a weekly charter rate that starts at AUD310,000 .
Northern Sun: the yacht in Below Deck Down Under Season 2
Below Deck Down Under season 2 explored the coasts around Cairns, the gateway to access the great barrier reef and the Whitsunday Islands.
And it’s hard to imagine a better yacht than the Northern Sun motoryacht to explore this iconic area. The Northern Sun is a 50.8m (now yacht) that used to be a vessel dedicated for ice exploration. The refit work took two years but was clearly worth it when we look at the result displayed in this second season of the Australian Spin off.
Although the Northern Sun is built by the Japanese Narasaki shipyard, it surely is a boat that fits Australian waters quite well and could delight anyone looking to explore the most rugged locations in style, whether they are polar or tropical.
Northern Sun is available for charter from $161,700 / week . Her latest asking price was $15,000,000 .

Hands off the Humber
East coast scuba & watersports presents: annual padi aware dive against debris at mill cove, st. margaret’s bay., the maritime museum of bc’s 45th annual victoria classic boat festival sails into the inner harbour , long-lost boat from ‘beachcombers’ tv show rediscovered and set for restoration.
Fans of the show will remember HiBaller II as being the focus of many intense scenes, several of which involved the jetboat going airborne. Smith served as a technical advisor for the show, inevitably taking the helm for many of the stunts because of his firsthand knowledge of the boat and its capabilities.
“There was another episode written where I had to jump over 12 boats and land on the 13th,” he told Global . “So I just took the boat and measured how far I had to run to get it up to speed to go on certain distance and came down and we did it in one take – got it in the first time.”
While HiBaller II needs some TLC, both Smith and Fatovic are hopeful it will once again become part of a display showcasing Gibsons history. A section of the local museum is already dedicated to the show, and Persephone is also due to be restored again in the near future.
“People can kind of take ownership of the show … The beautiful thing about Gibsons is that it hasn’t changed,” said Jackson Davies, who starred in the series as RCMP Const. John Constable, to Global News .
“When you have things like the jetboat there and the Persephone and Molly’s Reach (a cafe featured heavily in the show), there are memories on every street, it’s not a studio; Gibsons (itself) was a character in the show,” he added.
The plan for the future is to have both Persephone and HiBaller II displayed together — both refurbished to look exactly as they appeared on the show.
More than 30 years after The Beachcombers went off the air, one of the show’s best-known vessels, HiBaller II , has been rediscovered and will be restored to her former glory. The show had an incredible run from 1972 to 1990 and follows the exploits of log salvagers on Canada’s west coast.
The show followed the life of Nick Adonidas, a log salvager in who earned his living by traveling the coastline with his partner Jesse Jim aboard their logging tug Persephone . Their lives revolved around tracking down logs that broke away from barges and logging booms, while simultaneously dealing with the constant pressure from business rival Relic (aka Stafford T. Phillips) and his boat HiBaller II .
The show was beloved not only among Canadians, but with boaters across North America. The production somehow put together an incredible 350 episodes that were broadcast on CBC in Canada but also major tv networks in the U.S., the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Greece, Italy, and around the globe.
The show was filmed predominantly on B.C.’s Sunshine Coast around the small coastal town of Gibsons.
The Persephone , run by the protagonist Nick Adonidas, has long been displayed in downtown Gibsons in ode to the success and influence of the show. After the series ended, the engine was removed and Harry Smith, the boat’s builder, donated the vessel to the town of Gibsons in 1991. In 2003, the Sunshine Coast Museum & Archives Society in Gibsons took ownership of the boat and has kept it ever since.
But the HiBaller II , operated by his rival and fan favourite Relic, has been missing for over 30 years.
According to Global News , HiBaller II went through several owners after the show ended before eventually disappearing altogether.
As it turns out, it’s been sitting in storage in Vancouver Island.
Sunshine Coast resident and Beachcombers superfan Deano Fatovic had been searching for HiBaller II for over a decade, according to Global .
“I’d go to all the commercial docks because that’s where the working boats would always be, and I just asked the guys, the old timers that were there, and they’d been there for years with their old fish boats and work boats and stuff like that,” Fatovic told Global News .
“It’s Canadian history, right? And, you know, that’s what I thought all the time … this is too iconic for the West Coast. It has to be brought back and restored,” said Fatovic.
After finding what he believed to be the HiBaller , Fatovic had to connect with the boatbuilder’s son, N. John Smith, to confirm its origin. Once Smith confirmed its identity, another piece of the iconic tv show was set to float again.
“The boat was built to be a Beachcomber. That’s what I did for a living,” said N. John Smith, to Global News .
“The television series was only in Gibsons for a few months of the year, but I beachcombed the rest of the year with the boat, so it was my normal workboat.”

Below Deck secrets: The reality series that went from hard sell to selling charters
Kate Lardy finds out how the hit reality TV show about yacht crew drama went from hard sell to selling charters.
Rebecca Taylor Henning was on holiday in St Martin and having dinner with her family when she began eavesdropping on the table of yacht crew next to her, hearing the angst of a stewardess who was falling in love with the mate and deliberating whether to tell the captain.
“It was Below Deck unfolding before my eyes,” says Taylor Henning, who worked on yachts as a second stewardess and mate before making a career in television. Befriending that crew was the impetus she needed to pitch a reality TV show centred around superyacht crew. It was an opportunity that US production company 51 Minds couldn’t pass up. And just like that, the carefully constructed veil of privacy that surrounds superyachts was breached.
Many in the close-knit yachting world were none too happy about it. “When we started making cold calls, we were shut right down,” says Taylor Henning, who was co-executive producer for season one of the show.
“People told me that my little TV show would be the downfall of the multibillion-dollar yachting industry,” says yacht chef Adrienne Gang, who worked with 51 Minds on the sizzle reel that sold the show to American TV network Bravo and appeared on the first season as chief stewardess. “After the show aired, I was terrified to go to the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show. There was such an uproar about it!”
Eight years later, the superyacht industry is still ticking along, as is Below Deck , which raked in 1.13 million viewers in June 2021 when the latest season of Below Deck Mediterranean aired. The series has also celebrated the launch of other spin-offs including Below Deck Sailing Yacht which premiered in early 2020, and an Australian and adventure charter series both set to debut and 2022.
Filmed over a period of six weeks, the show brings on a new set of guests every few days. The producers never tell the cast what to say or do, but crew nights out between charters, where alcohol flows copiously, are mandatory. It’s a high-pressure environment bound to unleash the drama that is the backbone of any successful reality show.
How real is this reality? Very, say crew members who’ve been involved with the show. “Anybody who tells you none of those things happen on yachts is lying,” says Gang. “There are always love triangles, insubordination, people getting too drunk, people not doing what they’re supposed to be doing, crazy charter guests – all of those things are real… Just not all on the same boat in the same six-week period.”
Ross Inia had plenty of experience working on charter yachts when he agreed to be part of season six. The New Zealand native had not been home in four years and the show’s filming location in Tahiti was the selling point. “My [thinking] was to go on there, do the job, make some money and go back to New Zealand,” he says.
He found the experience true to life – and a lot of fun. “I’ve been in the industry and what you see on television is happening in real life,” he says, although he acknowledges that personalities clash a bit more on television than they do on boats.
Whereas captains hire crew members who focus on synergy, the show hires an ensemble cast with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds, says Shari Levine, Bravo’s executive vice-president of current production. “Some may be more assertive than others or have a specific way they like to lead or be led, and we see that all play out on the show.”
All of which concerned Kim Vibe-Petersen before his 54-metre Perini Navi Parsifal III became the star of the first season of Below Deck Sailing . “At first, we didn’t want to do it,” he says. “We thought maybe this was the wrong signal to send out to the market and that it could disturb the very good reputation that Parsifal III has.” But persistence won out. “They kept on asking and asking and we came to an agreement.”
He considered changing the yacht’s name for the show, but later changed his mind, acknowledging that name recognition might be good for a charter yacht, even one as successful as Parsifal III . “We were a little nervous that the series would be too extreme, but it turned out to be pretty good. You have to understand it gives a different image to your boat, but, of course, they cannot film all 18 episodes and just have quiet charters. Something has to happen.”
Below Deck Sailing featured Vibe-Petersen’s captain of 13 years, Glenn Shephard, and some of his crew instead of an entire cast of talented actors. Two of the yacht’s guest cabins were converted into studios for the film crew. Shephard says he found the cameras “weird” at first, but got used to them after a couple of days and got on with running the boat just like he would in any other charter season. “It’s not totally like it is in reality,” says Vibe-Petersen. “The crew is jumping around in our Jacuzzi and all over the boat. That part of it is maybe a little overdone.”
Bobby Genovese, owner of 46-metre Feadship BG , says he’d rather not know what goes on. His boat has been on three seasons of Below Deck , but Genovese says he’s never seen an episode, and when someone tries to start a conversation about something that happened on the show, he shuts it down. When 51 Minds approached him with the idea, what convinced him was that filming fell during ski season.
“I don’t use the boat those six weeks. They paid me a million dollars, they fixed the damage that [they caused], my crew got the opportunity to have time off, and it made sense for me.” In the end, “the overall feeling was it was good for the boat, and everybody had an enjoyable experience”. BG , however, had the stage name Valor as Genovese didn’t want his boat associated with the show.
The owner of Ohana (now Rhino ), Jim Glidewell, had no such qualms. The 46-metre Admiral Marine appeared under her own name, and the exposure even attracted a buyer. He has nothing but good things to say about the experience. “Bravo has this down to a science. It doesn’t go rough at all. It’s very well done. [TV] Captain Lee handled it great, but I had a first mate and an engineer on board for backup [who were not shown on television].” He’s hoping to repeat the experience with one of his two current superyachts in a future season. “I think if people don’t take that charter money, they’re wrong.”
Glidewell has seen some of the shows and, like Vibe-Petersen, says the charterers are not like his yacht’s typical guests – he calls them “adult spring breakers”. Guests pay to be there like any other charter, says Bravo’s Levine. “How they choose to interact with the crew is up to them, and while some charter guests are wonderful and gracious, some are not.”
Yacht broker Shannon McCoy, of Worth Avenue Yachts , was one of the gracious ones. Invited by her clients, she’s appeared in two episodes. “Even though there are cameras everywhere and you’re being mic’ed, it is very much like a real charter,” she says. “Everybody treats you based on your preference sheets. Nothing is scripted for the guests.”
Her second time on the show, in Tahiti, was her favourite. “The weather was perfect, the group of people we had was great, and we did every water sport and activity that we could that was offered by My Seanna (now Starship ). You don’t ever see any of the drama that happens below deck.” So, while the bosun was struggling to communicate with his deck team and the third stewardess was feeling ostracised by the chief and second stews, “we had zero idea”, says McCoy.
Jerry Purcell, a guest with McCoy in Tahiti, says some in their group were bothered by the microphones and cameras, but he quickly forgot about them. “They kind of just go away in the background,” says Purcell, who owns a 21-metre yacht that occasionally charters. He came on the show to see how a large yacht charter unfolds and as a fan.
The franchise seems to have found particular appeal with the charter crowd. “I have a lot of charter clients that watch the show and take it for what it is, and they’ve become big fans – huge,” says Jennifer Saia, president of B&B Yacht Charters.
“Our guests are Below Deck crazy,” says Victoria Allman, chef on a 50-metre motor yacht. “The stews have overheard their comments at the table: ‘Don’t do this, or do it this way; the crew on Below Deck hate it when…’ In a weird way it has helped us,” she says. “One guest even brought their own steamer because the girls on the show hate being stuck in the laundry.”
As a treat for the guests, Allman once orchestrated a surprise visit from Kate Chastain, the chief stewardess who rose to fame over six seasons. “The stories she told about how hard they work during the shoot amazed me. They still have to turn the boat around, do the laundry, provision, etc, as well as sitting for interviews and dodging camera crews,” she says. “There is no ‘extra’ stew making sure all the grunt work gets done while the stars are being filmed. If I work 16 hours a day, they must be doing so much more than that. We as a crew should have a lot more respect for how hard they are working.”
There is still some stigma around the show, but the tide is turning. “It has become a talking point for people in the industry instead of ‘We don’t want to acknowledge it exists,’” says Gang.
It helps that the show has enticed new charterers instead of turning them off. “I know it has had a good effect on the charter market,” says McCoy. “I personally have booked charters from being on the show.”
It has also attracted new crew. “There’s definitely been an uptick in crew applications. It has brought more American crew into yachting; some are doing very well,” says Joanne Damgaard, crew placement agent at Bluewater .
The prevailing sentiment in the early years was that anyone who appeared on the show would never work in yachting again. Thankfully that has been proven wrong, with many cast members returning to charter work. Gang says there may have been a handful of yachts that turned her down because they recognised her from the show, but she’s had no trouble finding work among her extensive network. And speaking to BOAT International from his job as mate on a 35 metre, Inia says his Below Deck stint hasn’t affected his career at all.
So, while some in the industry – like the captain of a superyacht who binge-watched the entire franchise during Covid-19 lockdown – will never accept the show as a representation of yachting, that might be beside the point. “It’s supposed to be entertainment, take your mind off the trials and tribulations of your day and show you some place maybe you haven’t been before,” says Captain Lee, the show’s most famous face.“It’s also brought awareness to a lot of people who have money and never knew you could charter a yacht like that. It’s a whole new world for them.”
