This season, when the chief stew and chef discover they’re on different pages, mistrust and miscommunication makes for an extremely volatile working relationship that impacts everyone on board. As department heads undermine each other’s authority, arguments trickle down the chains of command as tension reaches an all-time high between the interior and exterior teams. With new safety protocols in place, the crew must stay on the yacht in between charters, blurring the lines professionally and personally, leading to a boat-load of nauti-yachties.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2 Cast: Where Are They Now?

Here's what happened to Daisy, Colin, Captain Glenn and the rest of the Parsifal crew.

While Season 1 of the Below Deck 's second spin-off Sailing Yacht felt tame—for lack of a better word—fans have been in for quite a treat with a nearly all-new and far more exciting cast for Season 2. So far, we've been introduced to the likes of Chief Engineer Colin Macrae, Chef Natasha, and Chief Stewardess, Daisy, all of whom have become fan favorites, and rightfully so. As the crew navigates the waters of Croatia, that isn't the only thing they're sailing through. With a plethora of hookups and questionable charter guests, this season is shaping up to be one of the rockiest.

Considering the series filmed in August 2020, viewers are curious about the whereabouts of our Sailing Yacht favorites...and, more importantly, how the cast and crew managed to film for several weeks amid lockdown. As it turns out, the location of this season was chosen intentionally. At that time, Croatia remained one of few countries in the EU to accept American tourists. In a Reddit AMA , a producer for the show also explained that maintaining safety protocols (which likely included regular Covid testing) was key in filming this season.

Here's what happened to your favorite crew members from Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2:

Colin Macrae

Colin Macrae might serve as the Chief Engineer aboard the Parsifal III, however, when it comes to the inner workings of his relationship, things aren’t as black and white. Despite gushing over his relationship with Martina Alvarez last summer, Macrae revealed that he and Martina have officially parted ways. “Unfortunately my relationship with Martina came to an end a couple of months ago,” Colin captioned his most recent YouTube video . Although his romance is no more, Colin remains optimistic for what’s to come as he embarks on a “fresh start” in none other than Panama. Colin has also continued his efforts in creating content online documenting his many adventures in Linton Bay, Panama , where he’s resided over the course of the last few months.

Glenn Shephard

Captain Glenn Shephard is back and better than ever! The sailboat captain may only have 2 seasons of Below Deck under his belt, but his 20 years of experience certainly make him a notable addition to the Bravo family. Since his summer in Croatia last year, Gl enn has since moved to Spain , which Shephard has deemed his new “happy place.” While becoming a Bravo-lebrity can go to one’s head, Glenn has remained modest when it comes to his newfound fame. The star now offers Zoom sessions with fans of the show, where he dishes on behind-the-scenes details all while sipping cocktails on the Spanish coast.

First Officer Gary King walked away from his very first season on Below Deck Sailing Yacht feeling nothing but grateful. “Reminiscing about the last 6 weeks that have just flown by. I learned lessons that I’ll carry for life,” Gary wrote on Instagram . While fans have been rooting for him and fellow stewardess, Alli Dore to set sails on a possible romance, it appears as King has been flying solo since the series ended. After traveling about to a number of stunning locations, including Mallorca, Spain, Gary returned home to South Africa just in time for Christmas. The Bravo star has since remained in his home country, occupying himself with a series of visits to the golf range and a new passion for landscape photography and cooking.

Natasha De Bourg

The Michelin-star chef has been tuning in this season from her home in the Bahamas, and, well, she hasn't taken to it favorably. The star has posted a series of pics on her Instagram detailing her frustrations with herself on the show, claiming that she is “human and humans are imperfect.” Luckily for Natasha, her friendship with both Dani and Alli has blossomed immensely since wrapping up, and the two have been a huge support for Natasha as she cruises through these waves of criticism.

Daisy Kelliher

Being the Chief Stewardess on any yacht is no easy feat, and Daisy Kelliher is certainly feeling the burn. Following her time at sea in Croatia, Daisy, unfortunately, broke her wrist and found herself back home with mom and dad in Ireland . During lockdown, Daisy accepted a job in Antigua two months later, however, due to the current situation, her efforts at finding adventure fell flat. “I had completely lost myself,” Daisy captioned her photo on Instagram , revealing she began pushing friends away and entered a dark space. Luckily for the Below Deck star, she feels like herself again and is set to start a new job. During a live chat, Daisy revealed to co-star, Sydney Zaruba that she is most likely headed back to Europe, although she’s left much of what she’ll be doing a mystery.

Dani Soares

Dani Soares soared to being a fan favorite this current season and we don’t see that changing anytime soon. Soares, who reigns all the way from Brazil, has gone on to make quite a name for herself since her summer in Croatia. The star currently resides in Sydney, Australia where she is expecting her very first child. Dani revealed the news on social media back in April, however, both her due date and daddy status remain unknown. Although fans have inquired who the father is, Soares made it clear that it isn’t “anybody’s business.” As she embarks on her journey towards motherhood, Dani is currently working as a beauty therapist in the land down under all while taking in her recent rise to fame.

Alli Dore is the third stewardess to join the hit Bravo series, and boy are we glad she did. After wrapping up her summer in Croatia, Alli returned home to Australia, where she was born and raised. Her love for boating didn’t stop when the summer did, as she went on to spend her time in the Whitsundays Islands. As for Alli’s personal life, the star made an appearance on the Unpopular podcast where she revealed that she is pansexual. [I am] “attracted to people’s aura,” she revealed. Alli has gone on to start her very own IGTV series called Pita Party , which she stars in alongside Sailing Yacht co-stars, Daisy and Dani.

Sydney Zaruba

Sydney Zaruba found herself in quite the love triangle last summer in Croatia, but today, she is all about keeping her inner circle small. Sydney, who was born and raised in Florida, moved on over to the stunning island of Mallorca, Spain where she currently works on a 42-meter sailing yacht! This is nothing new for Sydney; considering her experience on Below Deck and, of course, her long history of sailing with her family. In addition to being at sea, Sydney decided to become a travel agent with Explorateur Travel. While the cast of Sailing Yacht has gone their separate ways since the summer ended, Sydney still managed to bump into none other than Captain Glenn on the streets of Palma.

Jean-Luc Cerza Lanaux

Jean-Luc may be the youngest Below Deck crew member but he certainly makes up for it in height? Following his summer working on the Parsifal III, Jean-Luc traveled to Mallorca, Spain, an idea many of his co-stars had as well. Shortly after, the 25-year-old made his way on over to Costa Rica , which he’s called home for the last several months. Despite the remarkable views, Jean-Luc is entering some rocky waters as a plethora of rumors have surfaced questioning his role in Dani Soares’ pregnancy. Not only have fans been flooding his social media with questions concerning whether he’s the father or not, but fellow charter guest, Barrie Drewitt-Barlow also went on to add fuel to the fire. In an Instagram video posted back in April, Barrie claimed that Jean-Luc “was too busy getting the other one [Dani] pregnant … He’s gonna be a daddy,” he said. While Dani laughed off the comment, Jean-Luc has yet to address the rumors.

Below Deck Mediterranean Recap: Goldilocks Joe

Below deck mediterranean.

Was anyone else shocked to realize there’s only one charter (and two more episodes) left in this season? This week was more of the same squabbles, so I don’t have much hope for anything exciting to come. Sandy’s proposal to her girlfriend Leah has been brought up so many times it feels like the big prom at the end of a high school movie. Hopefully, Sandy gets a nice private moment, and it doesn’t become an all-crew event milked for the last drops of drama at the end of a dry season.

But we’re not at a finale yet. This episode starts with Aesha sitting down for a meal for the first time all season, thanks to Carrie’s capability to cover the bar. The new stew also quickly steams the guests’ clothes for dinner; I’m so impressed by someone merely doing their job well and fast that it puts into perspective how low the bar has been for Ellie and Bri. Ellie remains on her power trip as she instructs Carrie and Bri on where to put up birthday decorations. She’s coming off as the person in a group project who appoints themself the leader so they can tell everyone else what to do and not have to do as much work themselves.

Hard at work in an attempt to redeem himself is Jono, whose stuffed tomatoes look great. The guests love them and the lamb entree. Compared to other chefs in the franchise, Jono still ranks at the bottom in cooking skills consistency, but it’s worth noting that he ranks high in getting along with the interior so well and having food ready on time. I wouldn’t go to his restaurant, but I’d happily go to a restaurant with him.

Who would I not go to a restaurant with? Joe. Gael tries to clear the air between them, and he apologizes, agreeing not to call her a princess again. Joe then tells Nathan that he thinks Gael hates him and asks his buddy to sort it out. Nathan’s never had a friend and girlfriend who didn’t like each other, so he’s not sure what to do. Joe has made similar comments about Bri and Ellie hating him, never seeming bothered by it. I’m sick of him not digging even a millimeter into why his female coworkers might dislike him. He’s too busy repeating the pattern with Carrie: he teases her by closing the laundry room door and running away while she’s working inside. The man has the flirting maturity of a ding-dong ditch.

After dinner, Aesha puts Carrie on drinks while Ellie cleans the table. Ellie asks Carrie for help, but Aesha overrides her. When Carrie returns to get more drinks, Ellie asks if she’d mind doing dishes so Ellie can do service instead. Why do you care, Ellie?! These married Ohioans aren’t going to be your sugar daddy. Ellie delusionally thought she was carrying the team and thinks Carrie is now taking the spotlight from her. The next day, that spotlight is serving lunch. She should be grateful to get a break. Maybe she doesn’t want to stop working because that would mean too much free time for self-reflection. Carrie tells Aesha how Ellie likes to do everything by herself and insists she doesn’t want to cause any issues, but their tone is gossipy, so I don’t fully buy that. Please cause issues, Carrie!

The guests requested watersports games and a relay race, for which the deck team picked up more inflatables. Joe comes up with an obstacle course/swimming relay with the guests, something that was definitely Iain’s job to prepare ahead of time. We’ve seen so little of Iain lately he’s practically a non-cast member engineer. I almost respect the guy for collecting his paycheck and giving us absolutely nothing.

The Mustique returns to the port for the night because of high winds. I support this decision because I now know what a waterspout is and am terrified of it. Docking in the dark goes smoothly while the guests eat dinner. They do synchronized service, well, semi-synchronized because they place down half the plates at once, then the next half. Call me when you can put down all eight plates at once. Aesha’s happy, though; she feels like things are finally up to her high standards now that they have a fourth stew. The color beads system to identify crew laundry seems to be working for Bri, who explains that she used color in her notes for studying at school too. Overall, it’s a successful charter.  They receive a $20,000 tip, and perhaps more importantly, Sandy has only positive feedback for the crew.

A major negative in my book is that Ellie gets sucked back into Joe’s orbit. Apparently, she’s forgotten about all those NFL players in her DMs. As she and Carrie clean the cabins, she fills the newbie in on Joe’s past make-outs and how he led them on. However, Ellie says it’s hard to be mad at him because he’s a sweetie, and she does care about him. I think the caring about him line is her trying to tell Carrie she’s still interested, but she’s too opaque. (Kind of like her self-tanner, which accidentally gets on Carrie’s clothes when they bump into each other getting ready for a night out.) Carrie may be easygoing because she knows their time together will be short, but the two are like a pair of betta fish in the same tank. Carrie knows not to fight directly with Ellie and reports her behavior to Aesha instead. She tells the chief stew about Ellie telling her to do less work, and Aesha says she’ll tell Ellie only to give Carrie assignments when Aesha is on break. Sadly, we don’t get to see this yet, but I look forward to Ellie’s reaction.

After dinner, Jono and Iain go back to the boat while everyone else dances. The lack of a unified dress code is hilarious. Bri’s t-shirt and jeans are fully casual, while Ellie’s bedazzled dress is dressy cocktail circus attire. It’s not loud enough to draw Joe’s attention. She tries to rekindle things by reminding him that this club is where they made out, but he’s focused on Carrie. Joe talks about her like he’s Goldilocks: he says Ellie was too stuck up, Bri was too sensitive, and Carrie seems just right. His sweater is too hot, and I guess going shirtless would be too cold, so he buys a shirt from a random man. I have a lot of questions about this, but the relevant plot point is that he doesn’t return to Ellie, who he was dancing with, and beelines to Carrie. In an interview, an insulted Ellie says, “No man in his right mind would turn down an incredible night with me.” I let out an involuntary groan. Bri tries to give Ellie a pep talk outside, but Ellie’s ready to be done with the season and go home. Carrie tells Joe she’s heard about him hooking up with the other girls, and he writes them off as drunken kisses.

Joe continues to make drunken decisions in the car back to the yacht. He books a flight to Ireland to visit Nathan because it’s only 16 quid. Is this Ryanair product placement? Gael’s hurt because Nathan didn’t check with her about their post-season travel plans. Joe beat her to booking flights so she feels like she can’t expect anything from Nathan anymore. This brings up feelings about how her ex didn’t prioritize her. That breakup is still fresh, too, and Aesha consoles her as she cries. Ellie tells Joe to fuck off as he walks by her and Bri in the crew mess with Carrie. Either unaware of the turmoil they’re causing or deliberately ignoring it, Joe and Nathan happily hang off their top bunk with Carrie. It’s giving Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed . They may not fall off and hit their heads, but there will be consequences.

Captain Glenn on Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 return and the Bayesian 'freak accident'

Captain Glenn Shephard has been a familiar face throughout all four seasons of Below Deck Sailing Yacht, where he has commanded Parsifal III.

From dealing with the yacht's unpredictable challenges and managing onboard love triangles, to enjoying oversized crackers in the galley, the Bravo star has made the 177-foot vessel his second home for more than 15 years.

Usually catering to demanding guests as they charter through Greece, Spain, and Italy, it seems fitting that the 63-year-old chatted with us from the comfort of his own boat, Avalon, in Croatia.

Season 5 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht has been one of the most anticipated in the show's history. Viewers have been eagerly awaiting its release after photos confirmed filming took place last summer.

Initially slated for a February debut, fans have speculated that the latest season’s release has been delayed following allegations of sexual misconduct against first mate Gary King, made by a production member just days after filming wrapped. King has vehemently denied the accusations.

Despite the controversy, the Montreal native reassured fans that the new season is on its way. However, he remains unsure of exactly when viewers will see him alongside engineer Colin Macrae and chief stew Daisy Kelliher back on their screens.

He told The Standard: “They announced it at BravoCon in November. But then it didn’t air in Spring or Summer. I think it’s coming soon, but I don’t know exactly when. The network decides that. I get endless questions on social media about it, but all I can say is, 'It’s coming soon'.

“We just have to be patient.”

Though the delay is frustrating, it appears both Shephard and fans will have to wait a bit longer for the next season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht. In the meantime, UK fans can catch him at the Southampton International Boat Show 2024 later this month. The event, the largest of its kind in the UK, returns for its 55th year at Mayflower Park from 13th to 22nd September 2024.

Speaking about his involvement, he said: "It's pretty cool. I'm really excited."

The seasoned captain will participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony, host a meet-and-greet, and take part in a Q&A session. And he assured us that he’s ready for all questions, even tough ones regarding the recent Bayesian tragedy, which claimed the lives of British entrepreneur Mike Lynch , his daughter Hannah, and four others when their luxury yacht sank off Sicily.

Boat enthusiasts have been eager to hear Shephard’s perspective on the tragic sinking of Bayesian , especially given his experience with Parsifal III, a superyacht from the same manufacturer. Although that’s where the two vessels similarities end, with Parsifal boasting two masts, not one. It also doesn't have a lifting keel, meaning stability is always at its maximum onboard.

Speaking of the tragedy, Shephard added: “I know there's going to be questions, and I'm happy to address them, but I'm not going to speculate. All I can say is, my heart goes out to the family and loved ones of the people that perish. It's a horrible tragedy, and I'll also say it's definitely a freak accident. You know anyone thinking about going out on a boat and worried that's going to happen - that doesn't happen and I couldn't believe that it could happen.

“We're going to have to take steps to make sure it never happens again, obviously. But no one thought that that could happen. We're all blown away - people in the industry, naval architects - it was a freak incident. That's all I can say.”

Glenn stressed that the Marine Accident Investigation Branch will thoroughly examine the situation, avoiding “guesswork and conspiracy theories” amid the growing social media speculation. He also underlined the importance of safety onboard and reassured viewers that such freak accidents are uncommon.

“Safety is critical,” he said. “It's the most important thing at all times. And we're always keeping an eye on the weather, obviously, but that what happened was a very localised, I think was a very localised event.

“It probably came and gone in a matter of minutes. It's not a hurricane. It's not a storm that's lasting all night. It's something that blows through. I don't know I wasn't there, but that's what I think. And so you have to take all the precautions to be ready for anything, you know, and that's I think we will all learn from this.”

With his sailing knowledge sure to be challenged this weekend, Shephard can usually rely on the camaraderie of his fellow Below Deck captains to riff off of.

Since the debut of Below Deck Sailing Yacht in 2020, he has formed close bonds with Captain Sandy Yawn and Captain Lee Rosbach , whom he hopes will “take to the high seas again” after missing season 12 due to ill health.

However, Shephard's colleagues have had their share of drama. It all started when Yawn stepped in for Rosbach during Season 11 after he had taken ill. Their feud reached fever pitch when he publicly criticised her leadership and her decision to fire stew Camille Lamb without telling him. As a result, Yawn cemented their fallout by not inviting Rosbach to her wedding in May.

Despite the drama, Shephard has stayed neutral and hopes for reconciliation. He shared: “I always like to bring people together, but I don’t know the full story. There’s talk, and it seems they’ve confirmed they’re not the best of friends. But life’s too short for that.

“When we were all together on stage at BravoCon, they seemed fine. But personalities are tricky — especially in the yachting world, where square pegs don’t always fit into round holes. Strong personalities can mean conflict, and resolving that is a massive skill in any industry."

Looking ahead, the captain is contemplating his future with the show after five seasons. For now, fans can rest assured that Captain Glenn isn’t ready to retire from the captain’s chair just yet. He’s aiming to strike a balance between his work and personal enjoyment, signalling a move towards a more leisurely future.

“I’ll probably continue doing it as long as they keep asking me back. I love it. But because of my age, it’s time for me to stop and smell the roses a bit. My sailing days for work aren’t over, but I’m not going to do it full-time anymore. I’d love to do more seasons of the show.”

The Southampton International Boat Show 2024 takes place at Mayflower Park from September 13 to 22. More information available here .

Below Deck Mediterranean season 9’s villain, Ellie Dubaich, believes Carrie O’Neill is stealing her spotlight aboard Mustique, but it would be best for the rest of the crew if Ellie left the show . Throughout Below Deck Mediterranean season 9 , Ellie’s behavior has been a point of contention aboard Mustique and for viewers watching at home. While she started the season as a seemingly competent Stew working hard to find herself promoted during her next charter season, Ellie’s behavior took a shocking turn as the season continued on. When her issues began to reveal themselves, viewers struggled to support Ellie anymore.

Throughout the early moments of the season, Ellie was one of the more agreeable crew members of Mustique. Her issues with Bri Muller , the Third Stew aboard the superyacht, were understandable in the beginning of the charter season, especially after Ellie had told Bri that she was interested in their mutual love interest, Lead Deckhand Joe Bradley. When it became clear that Bri was going to do whatever she could to take Ellie down, t he Second Stew’s behavior started to become more erratic . With Ellie unable to handle anyone above her, Carrie joining the interior team has thrown her off.

Ellie Has Been Difficult Throughout The Charter Season

Her superiority complex has been tough to handle.

While her performance on Mustique hasn’t been as lackluster as some, Ellie’s behavior has been difficult throughout the charter season on Below Deck Mediterranean . While she started off as the more competent of the two Stews working beneath Chief Stew Aesha Scott, Ellie’s attitude has been a red flag since early on in the charter season. As Second Stew, Ellie knew she had authority over Bri and did her best to lord that over the Third Stew from the beginning. Rather than genuinely trying to help Bri through her struggles, Ellie made it more difficult for her to learn anything.

20 Best Reality TV Shows Right Now

Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

Ellie’s personal vendetta against Bri , which she consistently denied during the confessional interviews on Below Deck Med, made it clear that she was trying to sabotage the Third Stew. While Ellie was relaxing, taking breaks, or giving half-hearted performances on service, she left Bri to take care of the bigger tasks like cleaning the cabins or handling the laundry. Trying to say that Bri was victimizing herself when she called out Ellie’s attitude, Ellie made it clear that she wasn’t going to hear any criticism , even from Chief Stew Aesha. As the charter continued, Ellie only got worse to handle.

Aesha Is Trying To Navigate The Crew Dynamics Without Bruising Ellie’s Ego

She’s trying to be diplomatic.

Throughout the charter season, Aesha has been doing her best to be diplomatic surrounding the drama with the rest of her team. While there were issues that needed to be addressed between Ellie and Bri after the Joe drama caused them to bring their problems into the charter, Aesha didn’t want to make the drama between the women out to be about a guy aboard Mustique. Instead, she tried to create lines of communication for Ellie and Bri that didn’t focus on anything but the work they needed to do. With the Mustique being down a Stew, Aesha was desperate.

Throughout the charter season, Aesha was clear that they were working without the help of a fourth Stew, which meant that she, Bri, and Ellie needed to be at the top of their game. The charter season had been difficult within the first few weeks, and when Ellie and Bri’s drama cropped up and caused Aesha an even bigger headache , she wasn’t sure if she’d be able to handle it. Instead of focusing on the issues, Aesha tried to be as diplomatic as possible , allowing each of her Stews to vent their frustrations, but ultimately making calls for the team.

Ellie Thinks She’s The Best Stew Aboard Mustique

She feels she knows better than anyone.

Although Ellie has nearly as much experience as Aesha, she’s had different levels of superyacht experience in her time as a Stew. Ellie’s time aboard Mustique was self-described as a chance to gain more experience in order to become a Chief Stew , and though she felt she knew everything she needed to, the charter season clearly had some lessons to teach the Second Stew about leadership. Ellie’s time aboard Mustique should have shown her that she doesn’t know best, but instead, the Second Stew made it clear that she feels she knows better than the rest of her team, including Aesha.

During the most recent episode of Below Deck Mediterranean season 9, Ellie made it clear that she also feels she knows better than the new Stew, Carrie. As another yachtie with years of experience, Carrie knows the attitude she needs to have coming into the season with just a few charters left to complete. With an attitude and sense of urgency that worked for Aesha, Carrie was someone the Chief Stew felt comfortable with, which rubbed Ellie the wrong way. Ellie tried to assert herself, even reminding Aesha that she’s the Second Stew, but was shut down for her attitude .

Aesha Needs To Call Ellie’s Behavior Out & Let Her Go For The Crew’s Sake

She needs to preserve the work environment.

While Ellie’s behavior has been escalating in the final charters of the season, Aesha and the rest of the interior team shouldn’t have to deal with Ellie’s erratic behavior any longer. While the Second Stew is still working at a decent capacity, her attitude aboard the Mustique has been unforgivable. Trying to put herself over the betterment of the crew and the service of the guests is unnecessary, and Ellie has been doing everything in her power to ensure that the team knows she’s second in command, regardless of the situation. Ellie’s behavior has made her impossible to root for .

Even with just a charter left in the season, Aesha should notice the fact that Ellie feels like she’s not the center of the interior’s attention anymore and remove her from the team. With Ellie’s attitude only getting worse , Aesha should make it clear that she doesn’t tolerate the level of superiority complex that Ellie has and fire her from Mustique to make a statement . Ellie needs to understand that though she’s been an asset to the team, her behavior aboard future superyachts wouldn’t normally be tolerated. Her time on Below Deck Mediterranean should be coming to an end soon.

Below Deck Mediterranean airs Mondays at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo.

Below Deck Season 11 was a bit of a reset season. For the first time since the series debuted in 2013, Below Deck had a new captain at the helm. The Daddy of the Sea, Captain Lee Rosbach, was gone and a new Zaddy of the Sea, Captain Kerry Titheradge, the former captain on Below Deck Adventure , was now in charge. With some familiar faces back in action, Below Deck Season 11 had a rocky season at sea , but nevertheless enjoyable!

Below Deck is one of Bravo's biggest franchises. The flagship series has spun off four other series that have spanned the globe. Documenting the crew on board the world's most luxurious motor yachts, Below Deck gives viewers the highs and lows of yachtie life. The eleventh season gave viewers a new captain, a Real Housewife, and drama all over St. David!

10 "The Real Housewives of Grenada"

There have been a few unofficial Bravo crossovers on Below Deck over the course of the franchise. And Season 11 was no different. St. David welcomed The Real Housewives of New York City alum Jill Zarin . And well, she was a hoot and a half. Chef Anthony Iracane is an artist . And as Captain Kerry Titheradge states, creatives may break. And Chef Anthony was on the brink of cracking. Especially with Jill Zarin on board. Chef Anthony has had a rough go over the course of the past few charters and, as much as Chief Stew Fraser Olender wanted to protect his friend, he knew he was on the brink of destruction. He wanted revenge for his mistakes, but this group of charter guests was about to test his limits.

When Captain Kerry reveals that the primary is a former cruise director, the Chief Stew knew it was going to be a difficult journey ahead. As per usual, the preference sheet meeting is crucial for the pending charter. For the primary, she had multiple allergies. She did not eat meat, but she ate seafood. Just not raw seafood. And that would include sushi. This will be a crucial plot point for this adventure. With the other charter guests having so many conflicting preferences, Chef Anthony was stressed. Anyone, with the guests on board, Jill Zarin, someone who had her own luxury yacht in the past, truly believed she was the primary, and treated the crew as such. Those Diet Cokes MUST be frozen. Her room was not prepared with the necessities she needed. Oh, and she'd suggest to Fraser that they have a personal doorbell to summon the stews. It's a bit much. And yet, Ms. Zarin thinks it's perfectly Kosher!

Throughout this charter, Chef Anthony is struggling to keep up with the conflicting preferences that are preventing him from working to the best of his abilities. Between not knowing what to serve to the no meat or fish guest to suggesting lobster for a primary who doesn't eat it to grey burgers, Chef Anthony's stress level was at an all-time high. With Jill stepping over her friend, she requests a meeting with the Chef to ensure the next meal is perfect. Her friend, Melinda Springer , was present. And she will say nothing as Jill hijacks the charter. And what is one of her requests? Sushi. Yep, the Housewife wants sushi, which the primary does not eat. With Jill taking over, the primary's desires are forgotten, and Captain Kerry is infuriated.

9 "Disappointing Daddy"

New year, new love drama. Barbie Pascual was a self-proclaimed daddy's girl. And she keeps reminding viewers of it. She's quite in tune to how she'll be portrayed on screen and what her father might think when he watches. She's extremely nervous about how he'll feel about her romantic intentions with Kyle Stillie , but now's the time to decide. They like each other, but she's so concerned about what her Argentinian father will say. This is a Barbie world she's living in , so everything will revolve around her. Only an episode before, Boson Ben Willoughby broke up with his deckie girl Sunny Marquis . But that's not going to last long at all. Just wait for the crew night out for all that to change.

Chief Stew Fraser Olender knows where the line is when working on a luxury yacht. But that can't stop a little crush! Charter guest Steven is crushing on Fraser. Fraser is crushing back. So, how are they going to handle this situation? There is precedent over on Below Deck Mediterranean . Will he be the next Kyle Viljeon? Well, it is New Year's at midnight, so the fellas are jokingly discussing a midnight smooch. But that's a no-no on a yacht. Fraser will cutely ask Captain Kerry Titheradge about what to do if the charter guest wants a kiss. He says no crew member should have to do that, it's sexual harassment. But Fraser follows up with what if the crew member wants it? Well, that's OK according to Capt. K! Happy New Year indeed to the very single Fraser!

8 "Bit of an Ick"

The episode begins with a late-night food request from the charter guests. With Barbie Pascual having to settle the demands, she enlists late-night deckhand Kyle Stillie to assist. And what happens when you have something to bond over? A romance in the making! They'll continue to develop those feelings during the crew night out. Meanwhile, over on the exterior, Sunny Marquis has been named Lead Deckhand over Dylan Pierre De Villiers . Sunny, whose Boson Ben Willoughby 's boatmance, is more than qualified, but Dylan believes there was an anterior motive. So, Ben had to talk to Dylan, and, let's be honest, that wasn't going to be too productive.

Now, to Chef Anthony Iracane . Sadly, this was the end of the line for the affable chef. With breakfast being a mess thanks to his inability to adhere to the primary preference sheet requests, stew Paris Field is forced, as the messenger, to apologize. And apologize. Now it's time for the beach picnic. And well, Chef Anthony botches this one too. With Chef Anthony and Chief Stew Fraser Olender having to communicate over the radio about the debacle, it alerted Captain Kerry Titheradge to the problems . One of the major requests from one of the guests was a lobster grilled cheese panini. And yet again, Chef Anthony does not have it prepared. So, Barbie has to wake up in the middle of his slumber to make it. With everyone knowing that the entire crew's tips could be compromised because of Chef Anthony's mistakes, it was time to take action. Chef Anthony is officially fired.

7 "Royal Rumble"

As per tradition on Below Deck , the Chief Stew will have at least one stew they will not get along with. For Chief Stew Fraser Olender , it's Barbie Pascual . All season long, the two just couldn't get along. Despite having differing opinions on how to operate the boat, in the end, Fraser is the one in charge and Barbie has to deal with it. At dinner, Barbie will try to make amends with the crew for her bratty behavior, but as stew Xandi Olivier says, "That's the worst toast I've ever heard. I think she made things worse." She sure did! Fraser goes to Captain Kerry Titheradge to share his displeasure over Barbie's immaturity and lack of respect, but Captain Kerry knows that trying to let another stew go is simply not in the cards. So instead, Captain Kerry is giving Fraser a test of strength to improve his leadership skills: dealing with Barbie. At the same time, Captain Kerry has a heart-to-heart with Barbie, hoping to get her to get over the personality conflict. With both interior team members speaking with the captain, Fraser and Barbie agree to call a truce. For now.

With new stew Paris Field on board, she's already causing drama that she has literally nothing to do with. Despite having a loose connection to Fraser, her presence has made Barbie feel inferior and left out, again. Meanwhile, Boson Ben Willoughby has been goo-goo for the new stew, and his boatmance, Sunny Marquis , is quite upset. As she should be. She'll even ice her out to prevent her from getting close to her man. Now, whether it's unfortunate timing or a way to ensure he keeps the girl, Ben decides to appoint a lead deckhand. Will it be the experienced Dylan Pierre De Villiers or his girl Sunny Marquis? He'll go with the latter. Dylan is irrate, especially watching Ben rub Sunny's neck immediately following the announcement. With Dylan complaining, Ben is offended. And Dylan is offended that Ben is offended. Can't wait to see how this turns out!

6 "We'll Always Have Paris"

The next set of charter guests are yet another group that have yacht experience. This time they have their own yacht. This will not be the easiest charter then, right? Time to level up and give them the best. And Chief Stew Fraser Olender is eager to prove his worth. He's used to guests like this. He's got it! The two newest interior hires, stew Paris Field and Chef Nick Tatlock , have not gotten along since they started working together. Chef Nick, who replaced Chef Anthony Iracane , is not the best when it comes to presentation. He's been pushed to improve by both Fraser and Paris, but it's just not sticking. Especially when it comes from Paris. While working with one another for a beach picnic, Chef Nick would refer to Paris as his third favorite stew. Paris is not thrilled with his passive-aggressive attitude, so she puts her foot down. Chef Nick will tattle to Captain Kerry Titheradge . Paris would tattle to Chief Stew Fraser. So now, the two are forced to discuss the mishap on the beach.

It's getting near the end of the charter season and Dylan Pierre De Villiers is feeling it. So he's going to take this charter to flirt with all the pretty girls onboard who are not employees. That's right, he's flirting with the charter guests. He knows that hooking up with a charter guest is a fireable offense, so he'll just tease the girls and play truth and dare. When the dare is to take off his shirt, the deckhand obliges. And then drenches himself in water. This was allegedly so hot and sexy that the primary's daughter DMs Dylan about it. Eek. Good thing the charter is over in a few hours. On the crew night out, Kyle Stillie , the Scotsman, is wearing a kilt. Barbie Pascual is not thrilled about that. But this is the night that she will come to the realization that with Kyle not being Jewish, they will not be able to work out in real life. Once again, family first.

5 "Happy Captain, Happy Life"

The main boat couple is about to hit a bit of a snag. Ben Willoughby is with Sunny Marquis , but he's got some feelings for last season's disaster stew Camille Lamb . He'll post an Instagram story about her, causing Sunny to be irate. And then, because he can't make up his mind about his true feelings, he's going to make up a massive excuse about work and break up with Sunny. But as he says, "If we sleep together, we sleep together. If we don’t, we don’t." Oh, and then he'll go and Facetime her. Oye. Men. Am I right?

Barbie Pascual and Kyle Stillie had sex! Kyle, of course, is thrilled. Barbie is freaking out about daddy. And there is their storyline for the remainder of the season. Since nothing is really a secret on a motoryacht, Chief Stew Fraser Olender and 2nd stew Xandi Olivier will joke about the hookup. Xandi and Fraser, who have a distaste for Barbie, joke about Babie's lack of work ethic and engaging in a sexual act that involves the word job. Now, remember Ben, who is on his high horse? He's going to take it upon himself to scold Barbie about Kyle "being off." Why? Bro code! Barbie is not here for Ben's mansplaining so she throws Sunny in his face. Ben really was trying to make his issue with everyone, as he's projecting his own feelings onto Barbie. But the problem here is, she is mad at Kyle for allegedly talking to Ben about their night together. So now she confronts Kyle about it. It's getting messy!

With Chef Anthony Iracane gone, there's a new chef in town. Chef Nick Tatlock seems like a pretty good guy, though his older demeanor becomes a bit of a sticking point with the younger crew. He's worked in the industry for over two decades, so his experience is there. Captain Kerry Titheradge alerts Chef Nick that he is not here for any galley nonsense. Good luck with that. His first major themed meal is a Christmas festivity, so Chef Nick prepares The Feast of the Seven Fishes , as St. David is decked out for the holidays. It's a successful first dinner service for the new chef!

4 "Murder on the High Seas"

With Ben Willougby officially now the St. David Boson, he's got a lot of pressure to prove his worth. In one of his first actions as Boson, he nearly strands the charter guests on the beach. It's Captain Kerry Titheradge to the rescue. Captain Kerry has to come and help the tender off the shore as an impending storm moves in. Not a great first look for Boson Ben. Being shortn a deckhand, St. David welcomed a new exterior member, Dylan Pierre De Villiers . The handsome South African may be pretty on the eyes, but he's not making a great first impression. Especially to Sunny Marquis . Welcome to the start of their tension for the remainder of the season. Meanwhile, she's still crushing on Ben. Despite their flirtmance, he's dancing with other women, including 2nd Stew, Xandi Olivier . Sunny is not thrilled, but, at this point, they're not official so she can't be too mad, right?

Below Deck is notorious for exceptional theme parties. On this charter, Chief Stew Fraser Olender is in charge of creating a murder mystery party for the guests. And of course, the crew must be involved. As the guests are enjoying their desserts, Barbie Pascual rushes in that there's been a murder! It's Fraser! He's dead. Not really. That would be a travesty. The guests are engaged in the game and all is well! Another successful night aboard St. David.

3 "Grenadian Nightmare"

Remember the sushi? Here comes the aftermath. After making two giant platters of sushi at the behest of Jill Zarin , Chief Stew Fraser Olender is adamant that Chef Anthony Iracane make more sushi that would work for the primary. Great idea. The only problem is there's no more rice for sushi. Chef Anthony used it all. Meanwhile, Jill Zarin is ready for the meal. Guess who's not! Chef Anthony. He's in over his head and Fraser has no idea how to fix the situation at hand. Fraser alerts the guests that they have options for their main course, which means Chef Anthony has made extra work for himself. But there's no hiding any problems for this meal as Captain Kerry Titheradge is joining the guests for dinner. And leave it to Jill Zarin to complain about the meal in front of the captain. Captain Kerry will give Chef Anthony a lashing during the tip meeting. Chef Anthony is officially on his last leg.

With a stew down, Barbie Pascual feels like she's being overworked and feels eager to leave. But she's not a quitter, so she's just going to complain about her workload. She has a major problem with how Fraser is delegating, as she feels 2nd Stew Xandi Olivier is doing less work than her. Whether fact or not, she is technically her superior. As is Fraser. Barbie is just proving that she has a problem with authority. With a new stew arriving, it would seem like things would be better for the interior team, but Fraser and Barbie will continue to clash, especially when it's revealed that the new stew, Paris Field , has a loose connection to Fraser. Barbie's back on the bottom of the totem pole. Paris, who gets to join the crew during their day off, is alerted to the Barbie of it all thanks to Fraser. Meanwhile, what should be a relaxing day off turns into a disaster as Barbie and Fraser nearly come to blows. Let's blame the sun and booze.

2 "New Capt, New Rules"

It's officially the start of a new era on Below Deck . Following the departure of Captain Lee Rosbach , there's a new captain in town, and he goes by the name of Captain Kerry Titheradge . Having previously starred in Below Deck Adventure , he was a welcome face for the viewers. Thankfully for Captain Kerry, he would have some Below Deck alum to guide him through a safe voyage on the flagship program. Returning as Chief Stew is Fraser Olender . Additionally, he'll be joined by his slight rival from the previous season, Ben Willoughby , who starts as Lead Deckhand. Beyond that, new season, new crew. Aside from Captain Kerry, Ben, and Fraser, the starting crew includes Chef Anthony Iracane, Boson Jared Woodin , deckhand Sunny Marquis and Kyle Stillie , and stews Xandi Oliver, Barbie Pascual , and Cat Baugh . This season, St. David will be exploring the beautiful seascape of Grenada.

As the crew prepares for the first charter of the season, viewers were offered some glimpses into extraordinary foreshadowing. Chef Anthony is already in over his head. An hour and twenty-two minutes between courses?! No Chef, no! Boson Jared Woodin is already in over his head. In the first departure, Jared is showing his inability to communicate well with the captain. Or take blame for his mistakes. Meanwhile, Fraser and Ben are willing to let bygones be bygones in hope for a good charter season. With his interior team, Fraser decides not to give ranks. And yet, Barbie feels it's her place to micromanage Cat. Little does she know how she speaks to Cat is going to be one of the catalysts that will cause her to depart later in the season. Cat already begins to breakdown , so Fraser has to give her a pep talk. On charter one.

1 "Pier Pressure"

To kick off the episode, the charter guests finish their first dinner and the first day of charter is officially done. Chef Anthony Iracane is overwhelmed, but thankfully, his exceptional culinary skills saved the night. With Barbie Pascual on the night shift, she has to babysit the primaries who are on their honeymoon. And we all know what happens during a honeymoon. Barbie is pretty sure the happy couple did it in the jacuzzi. On her watch. Barbie will complain about to Kyle Stillie , but even though his jokes, the joke will be on him. He's the one who has to clean the infamous hot tub the next morning.

Viewers will learn a lot about the unique stylings of Xandi Olivier . She might be a witch. She might be a vampire. No matter what she is, she doesn't go out in the sun much. With an off-boat excursion in the cards, it's up to the entire crew to prepare for the event. Well, between Boson Jared Woodin and Lead Deckhand Ben Willoughby will forget essential items to make this excursion a success. This episode will reveal that Ben has previously been diagnosed with ADHD, hence why he has trouble concentrating. Things won't be better as he is involved in a near-docking disaster. Captain Kerry Titheradge nearly hits the dock, and it's all on Jared's watch. Captain Kerry is not about any of the excuses Jared has for him.

As Season 10 viewers know, Chief Stew Fraser Olender and Ben did not have the best working relationship. Season 11 is not going to prove different. With his interior team complaining to other crew members, the drama makes it back to Fraser that Barbie was complaining to Ben about Cat Bough, who was complaining about her. Fraser is not thrilled that Ben might be meddling with his interior team, so he has to have a chat with him. Call that truce. Speaking of, the brilliant Chief Stew Fraser Olender asserts his dominance and proof of why he might be one of the best, as he is able to sit both girls down and find a solution about getting along. Great effort. Now it's in their hands to make it work.
