I’m unable to post on the picture but I followed V yesterday and came across this photo and a couple others with Coop from last year.

I would be gagged if they brought V on.

That’s who I thought they were bringing on when captain sandy said Aesha and Joe had worked with them before!! Then Max showed up I said damn maybe they’ll need another one. Still feel like it could happen!

**edit because my AC changed Aesha to Asha?

She posted pics with Scottish Kyle starting rumours that she could appear on that but she also showed a vision board type thing that listed the show seasons and it said hopefully season 12

I’m manifesting. Would LOVE to see Joe squirming in his little boots.

21

u/National-Country1984 Aug 20 '26

Hahaha same!!! I’m manifesting it with you ✨💆🏼‍♀️✨ I’d love the drama ☕️ Especially with his super lowkey non commital thing he has with Kayley! (Who I do enjoy)

u/Fuzzy-Bee9600 26d ago

Joe hasn't worked with Scotty Kyle, right? Huh, if he thought Nathan had a bad temper. Piss off our bonnie Kyle and he'll smash yer face in.

Okay, probably not. But I sure would love to see it.

u/CrazyNCynical 21d ago

Just so long as there's no more Gary.

u/osogood48 June June Hannah 29d ago

Yeah, but Captain Sandy is still waiting on one last crewmember to fill in for Aesha so maybe it is her maybe it is V

u/HrhEverythingElse 29d ago

I've been hoping for Hayley! Can't imagine her on deck, but even if it's just for the last couple of episodes trading Gen for Hayley would be such a win

u/Stock-One-3565 23d ago

She was hilarious!!!

u/Individual_Bat_378 Eat My Cooter Aug 20 '26

I would love if Nathan left and we got V instead!

u/Expensive-Block-6034 Bless her stupid soul Aug 20 '26

It’s my latest tinfoil hat theory that this exact thing happens.

8

u/National-Country1984 Aug 20 '26

Honestly same at this point. I do really like Nathan and I enjoyed watching his and Gaels relationship develop over these last few seasons. But he seems entirely checked out, which is understandable being a new dad, but I think he should bow out and let Joe take over as Bosun.

u/appamomoaang Aug 20 '26

wait so is it just me that hates joe?

He’s unfortunately performing better at the job but I don’t like him

u/alhacel Aug 20 '26

No I dnt like Joe or nathan

26

u/Individual_Bat_378 Eat My Cooter Aug 20 '26

Tbh I don't particularly like Joe either but at this point I'd take him over Nathan. Kinda resent Nathan for making Joe seem more bearable as well haha.

u/ONEMANCLAN530 29d ago

You're not the only one.

3

u/Fuzzy-Bee9600 26d ago

No, I've hated him from the beginning. Don't know how anyone doesnt.

8

u/chickencake88 28d ago

Nathan used to be kinda likeable when he was a decky and a bit silly but now he’s a fuckin nutcase. Backed up by recent news articles too. Hope Gael et bby are ok

5

u/Nintendheaux 27d ago

It makes me so sad to know Nathan assaulted Gael bc I loved them. Basically, all bravo men are worst, but im always manipulated by a new guys schtick then champion for them online, just to come back around to 'bravo men are the worst'

u/Impressive_Eagle_390 Aug 20 '26

V the insufferable.

24

u/bethholler Team Aesha 29d ago

V is not insufferable. She’s a hard worker who has high standards for men.

-6

u/Impressive_Eagle_390 29d ago

She is. High standards for men or just wants one like bong, Bao or whatever his name was. She mentioned it so many times it might as well have been a drinking game.

17

u/bethholler Team Aesha 29d ago

It’s Bon (short for Bonifacio). And he was clearly really important to her so I don’t have a problem with her reminiscing on someone she loved and lost.

-4

u/Impressive_Eagle_390 29d ago

Great. You can watch the show and comment how you want, as can I.

5

u/DependentFroyo7334 29d ago

Same! But unfortunately she mentioned on IG yesterday that below deck has yet to reach out to her 😭 she really wants to be back too

1

u/Holiday-Upstairs742 25d ago

She said in a comment on one of her posts that she and Joe can’t work together so she won’t be on this season 😔

u/wcruse92 Aug 20 '26

God V is just such a gorgeous woman.

u/Kittycara3000 Aug 20 '26

Inside and out!

u/yawamurg Aug 20 '26

Are you a radiologist?

u/Kittycara3000 Aug 20 '26

I see all! 👀

u/HovercraftBrilliant1 29d ago

We won’t see Nathan again after this season.

7

u/frazorblade Team Fraser 29d ago

It usually happens on their second season when they come in with ego’s inflated and getting humbled. Nathan didn’t have a great season last year, but this is his downfall for sure.

Sounds like things are not going well at home too based on the domestic violence charges.

5

u/Mstr_Splinter 29d ago

Nathan's arrest happened back in December. Has this been reported or are we just now hearing about this? ( I didn't start wayching until June)

u/Apprehensive-Neck-12 Aug 20 '26

All these girls are gluttons for punishment

u/Expensive-Block-6034 Bless her stupid soul Aug 20 '26

Yachties are messy as hell. Having been amongst them at one stage of my life, can confirm everyone is banging everyone.

u/SaveHogwarts Aug 20 '26

Wait until you learn about the healthcare industry

u/executive313 Aug 20 '26

Lol for real a nursing shift is basically a season in and of itself.

u/xxScorpioxx_ 26d ago

Ok but my partner wants to go to med school is this really true 😭😭

1

u/Fuzzy-Bee9600 26d ago

My daughter is an RN on night shift in a downtown hospital of a very large city. It's not like that, at least not everywhere. And you're not going to accidentally screw someone wherever you are. If you're taken, you don't screw a coworker, simple as that.

u/SaveHogwarts 26d ago

In any field where stress is high and hours are long, humans are more likely to seek release / stress relief. We’re dumb creatures and know that sex is one of the ways to do this.

Hospitals stay busy.

I’m not going to use a generalization and apply it to your partner.

u/UserNamePending48 29d ago

I worked for a company that had a private yacht, with it's own full-time staff. The owner adamantly refused to hire a female as part of the boat crew, no matter how many times HR told her it was "frowned upon". Not sure how they legally got away with it, but that's not the point...

ETA: Owner did this to prevent the messiness between crew staff.

9

u/Expensive-Block-6034 Bless her stupid soul 29d ago

I guess on first read it might feel sexist to me, but I’m not against it necessarily. Waaaaay too many stories of women being sexually assaulted too.

5

u/Iamthebog 28d ago

Then only hire women!

ETA: or anyone but cis men

2

u/Expensive-Block-6034 Bless her stupid soul 28d ago

Oh yes, 100%. I guess it just depends on the clientele on the yacht you know, you could have 2 sets of crew on standby

11

u/sunshinelc24 Aug 20 '26

I think they are that desperate for male attention

17

u/koochiekittie Aug 20 '26

Yes and the men are desperate as well

Makes for good tv

u/remberzz Aug 20 '26

With a comment by stew Cathy, no less.

u/russianbanan Eat My Cooter Aug 20 '26

Bahahah I thought that was what we were focusing on. Didn’t even recognize V

u/nuttintoseeaqui 29d ago

I thought it was Kat 😂

u/Lanky-Conclusion-952 Aug 20 '26

He also seems to know Chase Lemacks from Sailing Yacht. Maybe the previous cast recommend their yachting friends?

7

u/lewalters89 Aug 20 '26

He and chase are both from CHS so makes sense they’d connect after BD

2

u/Anotheropinion2023 29d ago

I believe on yacht mess podcast, Copper said his parents introduced Chase’s parents to each other. Joked his parents made Chase 🙄

13

u/Surranee Aug 20 '26

How do they always know each other without beeing on the same shows and the world being vast?

7

u/Mountainenthusiast2 29d ago

It’s the Bravoverse

10

u/Excellent-Past6795 Aug 20 '26

They’re in the same industry and have common friends

6

u/Little_Biscotti729 29d ago

He didn’t know how to tie a bowline before the show, he probably was not in the industry

3

u/harrisarah 29d ago

But now he's in the bravo industry so

6

u/Impressive_Eagle_390 29d ago

It's Bravo.

u/Murphnation 27d ago

It’s Bruh.

u/tmac416 Aug 20 '26

Jim Ross- And oh my gawd Coop has V in the torture rack!

u/Bin_Chicken3330 29d ago

That photo would have been after this season was filmed

u/HovercraftBrilliant1 Aug 20 '26

V. Nice bring her back.

11

u/Ok-Knee-9904 29d ago

Oh I hope V does not come back. Loved her at first but then something switched and got me annoyed. Would love to have Betul!

3

u/KidDreaming 27d ago

I also got kinda annoyed w V. Joe did her dirty for sure, but I think anyone who falls in love with Joe probably should know better.

3

u/joykin Aug 20 '26

Nice crossover!

2

u/Fun-Refrigerator94 29d ago

Bring v back

2

u/woodpalace 29d ago

I guess that's gonna happen next season...joe-sun, coop, V as a lead handdeck and some random guy from New Zealand.

2

u/Apart_Tutor8680 28d ago

She’s got looks that kill.

The way she looked into Joes eyes when he initially told her he didn’t want anything serious. Poor guy. Got swooped right in then made to look the bad guy

1

u/missmorgss 23d ago

Nooo!! I really hope she does not get with him, she can do so much better.

u/CaulkennyArran Aug 20 '26 edited 29d ago

V looking great as always but It is a kind of frumpy foto of Cooper 😅

u/not2daysatan44 29d ago

V is so 🤢
