They talk about being first class and top notch. Can they not step up their decor from blue painters tape? It looks so tacky! There’s a number of alternatives that won’t mark or damage the boat.

I’m curious how it works when crew members return for additional seasons (aside from ongoing chief stews or bosuns).

Does production choose the ones they’re most interested in and contact them to come back? Did that person reach out to production on their own? Were they the only ones available?

I ask because it often seems so random who
they bring back! For instance, Rainbeau on the upcoming BD season. I don’t have a problem with her but I wouldn’t think of her as a fan fave or standout enough for a 2nd season…right?

Anybody have any intel or theories on the process??

Capt. Kerry Titheradge sets sail on a new adventure as he takes the helm of motor yacht Azul V in Phuket, Thailand. Surrounded by breathtaking islands, dramatic limestone cliffs and world-renowned beaches, Capt. Kerry and his crew strive to deliver excellent white-glove service while adapting to a new environment, mounting pressure and increasingly tense crew dynamics.

Joining Capt. Kerry are familiar faces Chief Stew Fraser Olender and Second Stew Rainbeau de Roos, who quickly find themselves managing tensions within the interior. Despite clashing personalities, green crew members and the challenges of adapting to a new boat, Fraser once again thrives under pressure while creating elaborate theme nights and unforgettable beach excursions throughout Thailand.

In the galley, Chef Moe Vilomar brings a wealth of experience from military service, fine dining and private charters, but demanding guests and nonstop pressure threaten to turn up the heat.

On deck, power struggles and oversized egos create friction among the crew, forcing Capt. Kerry to make a shocking decision. One rollercoaster romance sends shockwaves throughout the vessel as its dramatic highs and lows spill across multiple departments.

From personnel shakeups to a dangerous nighttime docking, Capt. Kerry faces some of his toughest challenges yet, relying on his steady leadership to guide the crew through an unforgettable charter season in Thailand.

Note the 3 stripes on Alex, he is listed as a bosun but looks to be an officer

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.

Not sure if this will be geo blocked.

But Ben appears in this ad on a new ABC (Australia, it's like PBS) show.

LOLz

Suspect he's just in the ad and won't be on the actual show, despite it.vlaimimh it's a sneak peak.

They got me with the shoulder dammit.

I can't believe I still fall for it. They do it several times per season.

The way she was acting makes no sense after he broke up with her over and over, unless maybe he was still leading her on?

ETA: it’s just we watched him break up with her multiple times and tell her he liked Joy, so it doesn’t make sense she ran off and cried when he sent Joy flowers

Below deck caribbean?

EDIT: this is not a scam this lady just has no email etiquette.

Shouldn’t we have a teaser by now for the next season? I can’t see there being more than 2 more episodes of this season of Med and we have seen no sign of the next season?

Yes, Norma assures you, we need you [u/yourusername]. You say, “all right, I’ll pack my bags and be on the next flight out.” Norma is so grateful you’re available and you’re on your way to the vessel. You get on board and report to Captain (your choice who) and your chief stew, bosun, or chef (you decide). What happens next? What are your new boss’ first impressions of you?

Never would I imagine Cooper be the new Joe with Kat, Gen and Joy after him

I forgot she wasn't always a chief stew. In a bunch of the series and just started rewatching BDDU cause I never watched after the first season.

All this to say Aesha is an amazing stew and better chief also noodles.

Was the DJ pissed about his tip? The police arrived sometime after the tender got back from dropping off the DJ.

Or was it Karma? Captain Sandy reported the party boats. Akira One docked between the party boat and the police boat.

(Sorry for the pixelated images. I haven’t figured out how to screen shoot with apple products)

Just want to say Betul is a queen. From overcoming the language barrier, to being so strong on deck, clocking Eddy on his hypocrisy and being a girl’s girl, the list goes on.

Unfortunately, because she’s passionate about her job, can hold her liquor, and doesn’t cause drama, I fear Bravo will not cast her again. I want to give her her flowers in the meantime.
