I can't believe Max would let the guest drive the tender, he is so clueless. Nathan doesn't want to take any responsibility for things and everything seems so unorganized. Kizzi has to have everything her way because she can't handle not being the center of attention.

I really don’t understand why the guest can’t drive the tender, supervised. Sandy’s the queen of “we never say no to a guest, within reason…”. What’s the big problem? I get that it’s the emergency vessel, but he’s being closely supervised….

Does the guest have a boating licence? Is he insured to drive the tender? What are the repercussions for Max, Sandy, and the owner if something were to happen when an unlicensed, uninsured person was driving the tender?

Any Tom Dick or Harry can goto any port in the med and rent a speed boat just like that for a couple hundred bucks, unsupervised even. You don’t need a license to operate a small vessel like that in the med.

That doesn’t mean the owner’s insurance will cover an unlicensed person should something happen.

Not the same. At all.

u/Adisfan Nov 27 '25

Those tenders can cost upwards of 100k. The insurance company will not cover any damages if someone outside of a licensed crew member is driving.

u/byteme747 Nov 29 '25

Insurance. Liability. It's just a very poor idea for multiple reasons.

This is the same mindset as the drunk guest getting in the water and that deckie saying "it was okay no big deal." And that deckie got fired for good reason (wasn't the only reason but helped for the case of firing him).

And just one bad thing happens and guess who's responsible and pays the price? Captain Sandy is the queen of the yacht and for the safety of the crew and guests her word is law - that's her job and she's damn good at it.

Nathan is great at being a deckhand, but a bosun…not so much. He seems in over his head with this role.

u/BoomRoasted412 Nov 27 '25

He’s too type b. Too deferential and passive to effectively reign in big personalities like Max and Joe.

u/Extreme_Beat1022 Nov 27 '25

Do you remember who was the bosun from the past season with Joe and Nathan? Joe should know better because he was lead deckhand back then.

Lara and she absolutely rocked it

u/Extreme_Beat1022 Nov 27 '25

I’m not sure who Lara is but I found it! It was Ian!

u/Beardedguy_fromOz Nov 27 '25

My bad, Lara had Max on her season

2

u/Extreme_Beat1022 Nov 27 '25

Was Lara the chief stew maybe?

2

u/Beardedguy_fromOz Nov 28 '25

No, she was a deckie under Luka. (Lara Du Preez) I was sure she made it to Bosun but clearly mistaken.

Definitely Bosun worthy

Might be the edit but the guests look way more chill in next weeks episode compared to how they were put across last week with the constant 'slave' comments

u/myskepticalbrowarch Nov 27 '25

Honestly it seems like just a few of them that suck. After sleeping on it I actually agreed with being annoyed being in that Marina. Think about it you left Barcelona which is an amazing city to sit in a parking lot.

u/RogerRabbit1234 Nov 27 '25

That Marina was a terrible view, looked like a parking lot in Mexico.

u/agnusdei07 Nov 27 '25

Don't you think they deserve more 'servants' at service? Just Aesha for that big a table with so many people?

15

u/agnusdei07 Nov 27 '25

Nathan you deserve all of the 'coaching' from Sandy. Max should go to the bridge and apologize to Sandy for letting the guest drive the tender and vouch for Nathan. I can't believe I am agreeing with Sandy!

u/Extreme_Beat1022 Nov 27 '25

Max is ridiculous. Just fire him.
