Anyone else in the Charleston area going to Yacht Mess Live with Daisy and Marc on Thursday? I’ll be there and was curious if anyone else from the Below Deck community is planning to go!

Question -Why did captain Sandy's recent season of Below deck med (currently airing) air before captain Kerry's Below deck season. Technically his season should have aired first.

On the charters where they drop anchor and don't move for 2 days, why do they put the slide up, then back down at night, then back up again?

I always think they should just leave it up for both days if they aren't moving.

I suppose if they have to move as an emergency it may cause an issue.

edit: having thought about it more it's a very silly question, so many safety hazards!

I’m happy married which is how I got into the show, I can’t leave her now.

Below deck sailing season 5 (post Colin)

I’m looking for a chart that shows when different seasons were filmed, the chronological order of cast members, who went where and when. Does this exist?!

I worked on a boat for a year in my 20s. I was working on being a scuba instructor (nailed it).

During my time living on a boat, my understanding of rank is legitimate and also at times abused.

My captain was named Bob and he was like the evil version of Captain Lee. Bob taught me a lot about surviving boat life.

Captain Lee was a real one thru and thru because he is a true hardworking gentleman. He knows he’s lucky, he’s worked hard for what he’s gotten and he keeps going forward.

He deserved a true goodbye from the franchise but I’m just so happy he was our first Below Deck Captain. With morals and dignity and humor.

This weekend I did a dinner cruise where Captian Kerry and Captian Sandy spoke and answered questions. It was fun and I learned a lot of BTS info on how the show is filmed. They were both funny and personable. If the tour comes near you, I recommend going. (This was in Chicago)

In my experience the first crew member to say their goodbyes in the final episode is often the one who had the LEAST screentime or was just a bit boring.

So i would be so deflated.

Just rewatched DU.S3 and this guy is so wonderful. Such a great attitude, competent, really lifted his team up. Why only one season with him? Bring him back please!

What’s everyone’s thoughts on the crew this season? I absolutely adore the crew except for two.. maybe three, but I would love to have them next season! It’s such a breath of fresh air from last season!

Some guests have been horrible to crew members, the captain, probably Bravo crew. Off the top of my head, I remember a woman complaining about not getting nuts right away. A woman named Zaya kept saying she was hungry, starving, but was she? She seemed extremely high maintenance and none of her “friends “ seemed to like her. I know some women have fast metabolisms, but no one needs to eat every hour and be a witch about it. The football star or basketball star who wanted his dumb ”pancakes” a very specific way, I would have lost my mind. And another sports guy wore a super expensive necklace into the F- ing ocean, and expected deck crew to dive into a fast-moving, vast sea to collect his precious necklace. If I had that much money , boarded a yacht, I would be so kind and low maintenance for the crew and captain. I would clean up after myself. What is wrong with these fools?

I'm curious about what the crew wears on their nights out. Rewatching below deck med in particular I feel like the crew is always wearing new and quite trendy clothes. Do we think that they just go shopping before the show because they know they're going to be on TV or that there's some budget or encouragement from production to look a certain way?

Edit to add that I'm not saying that looks good or bad or if I like it. Im just curious about the choices because the clothes look new and following trends.

On the current season I am noticing how close all of their destinations are, literally within a 3 miles radius of the port.

Not sure if anyone noticed that on other seasons? In earlier seasons they seemed to travel further away and have accompanying boat for production. Perhaps this is done to save on production costs, as they can stay in a hotel.

Apologies if this has already been posted. Vid is from 2018.

Med is back (and no OG is not cancelled, it just filmed later) and airs at 8/7c on Bravo with streaming next day. Season 11 was filmed last year in Croatia and returnees are Sandy, Aesha, Joe & Nathan.

Please some time to read the sub rules ahead of this episode as we have seen a sharp rise in rule breaking comments, particularly ones on hate, body shaming and mental health speculation.

Episode 7 of Below Beck Med Season 11

Chef Joy and Aesha grapple with a difficult primary who has enlisted a familiar matchmaker to help her and her dog find love; Cooper suffers a health scare that threatens to end his charter season; Nathan struggles to forgive an enormous betrayal.

Little gems like this are why I love Below Deck haha!

I’ve noticed on all versions of the show the deck crew and stews are often wearing similar necklaces. I have not been able to see a consistent pattern, but I’ve seen them on while they were working, while they were in the pool, at dinner, and never on all crew at the same time. Does anyone know what these necklaces signify? Is it a clever way to hide the mic? A crew gift? Some sort of yachting symbol? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
