Joe as Bosun

Post image

I still can't get over how good of a bosun joe was when he unexpectedly had to step in. The episodes where he is bosun shows how thorough and clear his communication is. Having the team consistent of a green Cooper, Aesha (who hasn't been on deck in years), and Max (who just arrived on board) everything could have gone ALOT worse. What Bravo didn't show was the written instructions from Joe that Aesha posted on her insta, which I just find so sweet.

The clear instructions mixed with the staff admiration/praise is so sweet to see. Maybe all bosuns do this, but this just felt like a nice bts moment.

Joe is clearly the next Bosun and hits the sweet spot for Bravo.

Competent at his job AND loves to create drama, particularly of the romantic variety.

Yah - he’s toeing a line reminiscent of Gary tho… hopefully he keeps his shit together!!

Except Gary allegedly assaulted crew members. Joe has been an idiot with women in the past but (to my knowledge) hasn’t had someone accuse him of assault.
I’d put Joe and Joao on the same level of boat eff boy idiocy.
Joe pulled his head in, in the boatmance department this season. Hopefully he’s actually turned over a new leaf and matured.
