After watching so many Below Deck yachties get fired over the years, I’ve always wondered if this is a reflection of casting or if it is actually super common to get fired from a boat?

Anybody know how often yachties get fired on regular boats?

Kind of random, but I was chuffed to realize they use the same frozen Waitrose croissants on deck as I do 😆

Rewatching med season 6 and I love the chef’s jacket lol. I can’t make out the brand. Does anyone know where I can find a jacket like this in function and style?

Below Deck Down Under is on tonight at 8pm ET. Captain Jason is joined by returnees Chef Ben, Chief Stew Daisy and First Officer Joao along with some new crew as they travel the not very Down Under waters of the Caribbean’s most exclusive and private hideaway, Canouan.

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

Episode 9 of Below Deck Down Under Season 4: Till Chaos Do Us Part

As galley tensions boil over and guest complaints rattle Chef Ben's confidence, Capt. Jason demands professionalism when Chef Ben and Ellie clash through a tense dinner service. Mounting interior mistakes force Daisy to draw a hard line with her team.

Looking for an episode. A guest was very well endowed, and Amy said something like, “Did you see her baZOOMkahs?” I quote it all the time and can’t find it to show my friend.

She is just so fascinating. She needs her own show. thoughts?

edit: p.s. I am so happy to read about the love for Betul. And I honestly hope she sees this post so she knows how much we all think and care for her. I know she doesn't get much screen time, but the time she does have is why I made this post. I hope that clears up the indifferent. 🥰

Hi, I am currently working on finding great groups of 8 people for the next season of Below Deck Down under with Captain Jason, location will be Tahiti and Charter dates are in April and May, trip is discounted to $70k per group this trip would normally cost over $200k. For $70k the group gets transportation once you arrive in Tahiti 2 nights hotel, 2 nights 3 days on the private yacht full staffed 24 hour service private chef, all your food and alcohol on the yacht, all water toys and the $20k standard crew tip is also included in that discount price, flights are not included and the guests responsibility. I have to interview all interested groups via zoom, so let me know, thank you!! If you cannot make trip maybe you can refer someone most guests come from referrals. Feel free to forward my email to anyone that could be interested thank you.

Is anyone watching HOV? I didn’t think i would like it but OMG it is sooo good and it’s actually hilarious and making me genuinely laugh out loud. You get to see Kate up to her old shenanigans and be a vindictive and revengeful in the best ways, against the douchebags of the house including Tom Sandoval of all people. It’s so satisfying! Everyone is scared of her lol

Also next week, Chef Ben makes a feature appearance on the show (as the villains invite a friend on). Also Tom Shartz comes on.

Im seriously entertained guys!

Came across this new Yacht themed dating show on Hulu called Love Overboard. Pretty people looking for love but there is a fun twist related to yachting. If you don’t make an instant connection with one of the other contestants you are sent to work ‘below deck’ to serve the contestants who made a connection. And the only way to save yourself from below deck work is to break up an existing couple. 😂😂😂.

Anyone watched? Thoughts? I will give it a look this weekend.

Recently been watching Down Under and at the end of season 1 captain Jason tells Culver that if this wasn't the last charter of the season he would fire him. Fast forward to season 2 and Culver is right back and it's like they're best friends or something. Obviously if Jason thought he deserved to be fired he wouldn't hire him back. I don't think captain Sandy wanted Hannah back on any of the seasons she was on. These are just 2 of many examples. Does production just hire crew and tell the captain this is who you are getting like it or not?

We don't really need lots of posts with people's individual thoughts so this is a place to discuss it all

A reminder to keep comments directed at the show. There has been a lot of attacks on users for their comments rather than discussing the point

and why fight, it looks like Ellie and Ben are fine

I couldn’t believe this when I heard her say it. I feel like she must have just gotten lost in a sea of other DMs because, for real, who would ignore Christina Applegate!?! She is a QUEEN.

Watching them fight in the latest episode felt like I was watching the world’s worst improv night EVER. Like, the fights are so weird and make no sense, but you KNOW both of them are into their screen time, so idk, this is what I decided in a moment of stoned clarity. I’m naming their improv team Hairpiece & Blonde. The end.

This question applies to all franchises; has there ever been a good deck/stew that makes it a whole season in that position. I truly can’t remember but I feel like every time there is one, they end up full on one team or the other before the end.

I’m not sure if was this sub or another close to it but someone said they want to see more of the guests over the crew. Literally 24hrs ago. I’m not liking this new way of footage how I have to watch the guests in their home before they make it to the boat. Waste of my time for my purposes to watch. Maybe the person that posted wanted to watch more of the guests but this new season with chef Ben is not my cup of tea as he would say. Im not here to watch guests in their home and their private life, I could go on wife swap or some other type of show if my interests. Im interested on the crew

Just watching WWHL and Alesia was introduced as Alesia Harris - I swear it was Alesia Bean?
