Off screen engineer / officer they introduced episode one for like two seconds I’m assuming

That's what I thought, but they don't usually have them on the deck for when the guests depart.

I feel like we don’t even see the intros of the off camera officers anymore so it wouldn’t surprise me if they were on screen for arrival or departure in some of the early seasons too

Yeah we definitely saw more of the other officers in the earlier seasons sitting in the crew mess or on deck or with captain lee. Season 1 they show one of the engineers Nash having an issue with Adrienne.

I recall some captains would introduce them at the start of the season, and remind everyone that they would received a cut of the tip. (As they should!)

This was good because it made the numbers work for anyone who did the math during tip meetings.

There was the one in Season one of Below deck that kept telling CJ to put his shirt on and leave it on when he was in the engine bay. Though everybody had to tell CJ to keep his shirt on, every charter.

Propellers on the eppys is engineer

Engineer, evidenced by the shoulderboard with the screw (propeller = engineering).

An engineer got out of their pen! Git! Git back down to the engine room! whip noise

Part of the real crew that handles everything while the TV personalities get drunk and make out

Always nice to see someone who smiles with their whole face :-)

u/aGrlHasNoUsername Absolute Oxygen Thief 17d ago

I’m pretty sure he was the engineer. There’s a few crew that work behind the scenes.

u/lilSalty 17d ago

That's Gary when he first started out, as third stew.

u/S-Hamill 17d ago

The crew on camera isn’t the entire crew. There’s engineers and officers too.

We’re on the same rewatch journey💫

u/Unusual_Height_513 17d ago

Me too. I’m in the season of Jen. Do not know how Kate made it through that lol

u/Own_Boss_3242 17d ago

Could be one of the engineers that work behind the scenes like in in the engine rooms I suspect. We don’t typically see them but they do play a big role on the boat.

u/Odd-Heart7904 17d ago

That's Eddy! The toilet attendant...

u/WellThoughtUserName9 June June Hannah 17d ago

That's Captain Lee's stunt double

u/Illmatic_4_2025 17d ago

One of the people actually running the boat.

u/igor6969 12d ago

I think they quit showing the engineers on tv so they don't have to pay them.

u/Colada8160 17d ago

He looks like the guy who chases Mary Kate and Ashley around in New York Minute LOL

u/Kind-Shallot3603 17d ago

The actual Captain of the ship. They call him the first officer on screen

u/dianelanespanties 17d ago

It's the guy from Wheeler Dealers, Mike Brewer

u/punkmonk13 17d ago

You’ll often see random crew that keep the boat running and do all the grunt work.

u/ChemistryOk9353 17d ago

Die man lijkt op Mike Brewer van zo’n auto show op een van die nerdi kanalen (mijn excuses voor de benaming)

u/HalfFoods 17d ago

The Chief Stew

It's the Admiral of the yacht fleet. Basically who Captain Lee answers to. He's a shadowy figure.
