How to charter a Below Deck superyacht
Want to know how much it would cost to charter one of the luxury superyachts featured on US hit TV series Below Deck ? We take a look inside Below Deck ’s famous superyachts that you can charter for yourself, and find out what they have to offer charter guests on board.
Northern Sun
The star yacht of Below Deck Down Under season two, the 50.8-metre Northern Sun (originally delivered as Hokko Maru ) has lived a full and fascinating life. She was the largest yacht built by Narasaki Shipbuilding at the time and worked as an ice-class research vessel, analysing marine life and ocean currents in the North Japan Sea. As a result, she has the hardy constitution of an explorer, transformed from ship to superyacht under the stewardship of her new owners.
Northern Sun’s main deck is now dedicated entirely to entertainment, from the al fresco dining area to the main saloon with its piano and games table. Other leisure highlights include gym equipment, a dedicated library on the lower deck and an outdoor Jacuzzi, surrounded by sun pads and lounge beds. The owners’ addition of a forward seating area during her refit allows for versatile recreation, whether the mood calls for cocktail parties or quiet, waterside contemplation.
Accommodation is for up to 12 guests across six cabins, with rich, warm interiors that feature natural materials such as narra and makore wood (commonly known as cherry mahogany). The ex-explorer also – naturally – has impressive stowing capacity. She's able to carry two Laser sailboats, scuba-diving equipment, a waterski and a two-deck-high inflatable water slide, with the broker describing her as a "family-orientated" vessel.
Charter cost: Northern Sun is managed for charter by Ocean Independence with a weekly charter rate starting from $161,700.

Defined by a distinctive vertical bow and large expanses of glass, Home was penned by Omega Architects and launched by Heesen in 2017. Her interiors, designed by Cristiano Gatto in a modern “Ibiza style”, can accommodate up to 12 guests in six cabins including a full-beam master cabin with a dedicated dressing room and a private office.

Sailing under her own name around the South Pacific islands of French Polynesia on Below Deck’s sixth series, the 56.4 metre My Seanna (now Starship ) was built by Delta Marine in 2000 and refitted in 2014. The Glade-Johnson designed superyacht reappeared again for season eight, where she was filmed cruising in Antigua. She is now starring in the latest season of the show, season nine, following her recent sale .
Key features include an open air Jacuzzi surrounded by an al fresco drinks bar, a gym, a sauna room, a helipad and a spacious beach club complete with a lounge, flatscreen TV and a small galley for preparing snacks or drinks. Her opulent interiors can accommodate up to 12 guests and 11 crew and even offer a home cinema and piano for entertaining in the main saloon. There are multiple toys carried on board as well, including gear for diving and spearfishing, Seabobs and equipment for underwater filming.
“The thing that I really love about My Seanna is the spacious cabins” says Worth Avenue retail charter broker, Shannon McCoy, who has appeared on episodes of Below Deck . She describes My Seanna as a “well-appointed yacht with a good collection of toys for the guests to enjoy,” offering an excellent layout with a variety of spaces that allows charterers “to have breakfast in a different place every morning or enjoy dinner whether it's outside under the sun or in the formal dining area.”
Charter cost: Starship is managed for charter by Worldwide Boat with a weekly charter rate starting from $275,000.
Lady Michelle
Sailing under her real name, Lady Michelle was the star of the sixth series of Below Deck Mediterranean , which was the latest series from the Med spin off.

During season six Lady Michelle hosted charter guests in Ibenik, Croatia with Captain Sandy behind the helm.
First delivered in 2003, Lady Michelle features accommodation for up to 14 guests including a split-level master suite with its own panoramic observation lounge. Her Stefano Natucci interiors offer indoor and al fresco dining spaces, an expansive sundeck with a hot tub and dedicated gym. There’s also a range of toys at the guests’ disposal, from Jet Skis and Seabobs to fishing gear and a waterslide.
Charter cost: Lady Michelle is managed by Burgess with a weekly charter rate starting from $325,000.
The Wellington
Actually named The Wellesley , this 56.2 metre Oceanco superyacht is owned by property magnate and hotelier Khalid Affara and named after his luxury art deco hotel in London. Delivered in 1993, The Wellesley features extended deck spaces and Donald Starkey -penned interiors that replicate the grandeur of the eponymous Knightsbridge hotel. Highlights on board include a waterfall jacuzzi, an outdoor cinema for movies under the stars and a unique private club-style lounge complete with a Winston Churchill inspired cigar room.
Describing why she makes an excellent charter yacht, James Graham-Cloete, director of charter management from TWW Yachts , says that The Wellesley is “ideal for entertaining family and friends, or hosting corporate events in utter privacy,” thanks to the fact that she “boasts some of the largest open deck spaces of any 56 metre on the water.” Graham-Cloete also adds that, on The Wellesley , “guests are invited to experience the same exceptional personal service, fine dining and attention to detail that has become synonymous with the hotel, on board a private superyacht,” while being looking after by her 14 crew members. “The crew have one of the lowest turnover rates in the industry and one of the best charter records, along with a full-time masseuse on board- making her the ultimate charter yacht!” says Graham-Cloete.
Charter cost: The Wellesley is managed by TWW Yachts with a weekly charter rate starting from €230,000.
Talisman Maiton
Built in 2006 by Turquoise Yachts , with a refit in 2012, the 54.2 metre Talisman Maiton sailed the coasts of Italy in the third series of Below Deck Mediterranean and was also captained by Sandy Yawn. Key features include a generous open plan sun deck with a forward-facing Jacuzzi and bar, al fresco dining spaces and a gym. Inside, she features six individually styled cabins for her 12 guests – including a master suite with its own private office – complemented by a sumptuous interior inspired by a combination of Asian and Art Deco influences.

Charter cost: Talisman Maiton is managed by Burgess with a weekly charter rate starting from €273,000.

She accommodates up to 12 guests and nine crew and offers charterers an eight person Jacuzzi, a gym, plenty of al fresco entertainment areas and a well-stocked toy box comprising Jet Skis, a waterslide and gear for wakeboarding or waterskiing. Worth Avenue retail charter broker Shannon McCoy describes Sirocco as a “very, very popular charter yacht” and with her fleet of water toys and pedigree Heesen design, provides “an excellent platform for a great time at sea.”
Charter cost: Sirocco is managed for charter by Worth Avenue with a weekly charter rate starting from €195,000.
Ionian Princess
Appropriately named for the first season of Below Deck Mediterranean , which was set in Greece, the 45.7 metre Christensen -built yacht was captained by Mark Howard during filming. Launched in 2005 and last refitted in 2016, Ionian Princess features a luxurious Greek-style inspired interior finished with high-gloss sapelle mahogany joinery and custom in-laid stonework throughout. Ionian Princess can host up to 12 guests in six cabins, including two master cabins, and also boasts plentiful dining options and a sundeck equipped with a hot tub and sunpads. She also comes with a fleet of water toys from waterskiing and wakeboarding kit to Jet Skis and kayaks. Thanks to her shallow draft, she can also access hard-to-reach hidden gems in the Mediterranean Sea that other larger yachts aren’t able to. “ Ionian Princess is ideally suited for cruising the Mediterranean, which is the most sought-after region for summer yacht charters,” says her management team at charter brokers Northrop & Johnson.
Charter cost: Ionian Princess is managed by Northrop & Johnson with a weekly charter rate starting from $175,000.

While at anchor, there is still plenty to keep guests entertained with a variety of al fresco and indoor dining spaces, a flybridge hot tub, gym equipment, a swimming platform and a fully-stocked toybox.

Below Deck Yachts
If you’ve never seen the show, it follows the crew of a luxury yacht during peak “charter season.” The original Below Deck, for example, showed off the glitz and glamour of the Caribbean, especially around St. Thomas, the British Virgin Islands, and the Bahamas. The Mediterranean spin-off, on the other hand, highlights European hotspots, including Italy, Spain and Croatia.
The show is undeniably a ton of fun. From the drama in the crew quarters, to the incredible beaches, the show provides an entertaining look behind the curtain.
Yet, the chartered superyachts are the real stars of the show. Each season, Below Deck features a truly stunning super yacht. All of them measure over 150 feet and are decked out in opulent features, staterooms and amenities. And here’s something you might not know: The majority of the Below Deck yachts are available for charter!
Below Deck Charter Yachts
Through five seasons, Below Deck has featured some of the most magnificent super yachts in the world. Some of the yachts have changed ownership since the show, been renamed, or have undergone a refitting. Yet, most look like they did from the show.
But beyond the name and maybe a few changes to the interior, there aren’t many differences. All of the water toys, Jacuzzis and stunning outdoor dining areas are what you’ll find on the yachts available for charter! So which charter yachts are available?
Season | Yacht | Real Name | Length | Charter Rate |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Honor | Lumiere | 163.8’ | From $175,000/week |
2 | Ohana | Rhino | 154’ | From $140,000/week |
3 | Eros | Mustang Sally | 161’ | Not Available |
4 | Valor | BG | 153.9’ | Not Available |
5 | Valor | BG | 153.9’ | Not Available |
Mediterranean 1 | Ionian Princess | Ionian Princess | 150’ | From €145,000/week |
Mediterranean 2 | Sirocco | Sirocco | 154.2′ | From €180,000/week |
Mediterranean 3 | Talisman Maiton | Talisman Maiton | 177.1′ | From €231,000/week |
Here’s a more detailed look at the yachts featured on the original Below Deck:
Honor – Season 1
Honor (which is now LUMIERE) kicked off the first season, and she put on a dazzling display. The yacht, originally built by Benetti in 1999, is one of the largest yachts ever featured on the show, and it was actually booked for a five-week charter for filming.
HONOR benefited from the new-found fame of the show. She sold after it aired for nearly $15 million, and the new owners completely refit her interiors and renamed the boat. Today, LUMIERE is a masterpiece of nautical engineering.
She features luxurious accommodations for up to 12 guests and an abundance of deck space, including a sprawling sun deck. The yacht also features a wide array of water toys (the slide was a struggle for the crew all season!).
Ohana – Season 2
Season 2 took the crew on a tour of the British Virgin Islands and featured some familiar faces. Captain Lee, Chef Ben, and Bosun Eddie were back, much to the pleasure of fans. Yet, the yacht was completely different.
OHANA (real name is RHINO) was featured on the second season, a stunning 154-footer, with beautiful decks, a horseshoe outdoor bar, and a stunning outdoor sun deck. After the show aired in 2014, Ohana underwent an extensive retrofit.
She now features an updated interior with a decidedly modern, airy vibe, as well as new hardware, including a state-of-the-art stabilization system.
Eros – Season 3
EROS took centerstage in Season 3, and the 161-foot yacht, originally built for the founder of Tim Hortons, was one of the most luxurious featured on the show. The beautiful tri-deck, featured a stately saloon, a sky lounge Jacuzzi, and sleek exterior styling.
EROS – which was sold prior to the third season – has since been renamed and was also remodeled. She’s now known as Mustang Sally, and unfortunately, this is one of the few Below Deck charter yachts that’s not available for charter.
Valor – Seasons 4 & 5
The stately VALOR was a fan favorite in Season 4 and 5. Built in 1990 by Dutch-based Feadship, the 154-foot VALOR featured a sprawling aft deck, perfect for sunset dinners and afternoon lounges. Plus, the ship – when featured on the show – had a range of water toys, including dual jet skis and a sleek, boutique hotel-inspired interior.
Like Mustang Sally, VALOR – which is now known as simply BG – isn’t available for charter. Yet, fans will always remember all the drama that took place on board.
Below Deck Mediterranean Yachts
Below Deck Mediterranean premiered in 2016, and through three seasons, the show has featured some of the Med’s best yachts. All of the yachts from the Mediterranean spin-off are available for charter, exactly how you see them on the show.
Ionian Princess – Season 1
Season 1 of Below Deck Mediterranean launched with a bang, featuring one of the strongest premieres for the franchise. Although there was plenty of drama throughout the season as the crew traveled around Greece, the beauty of IONIAN PRINCESS couldn’t be missed. The ship, which was originally built in the U.S. in 2005, featured a sleek, streamlined tri-deck design and gorgeous interiors.
The sun deck – where guests partied all season long – is one of the yacht’s star attractions, featuring a Jacuzzi with world-class views. Her interior, though, is one of the most stunning, featuring a chic design. The yacht also includes six cabins with accommodations for up to 12 guests.
Sirocco – Season 2
Season 2 took the crew to Croatia, aboard SIROCCO. The Dutch-built yacht originally launched in 2006, and thanks to its unique two-tone, third-deck exterior, she was remembered for her striking exterior. All of the yacht’s features made great TV. From her incredible sun deck, to the African chic interior, and all of the many water toys, SIROCCO’s impressive design and amenities stood out.
Today, she’s available for charter throughout the Mediterranean. A few unique features include a sun deck gym, an alfresco party deck, a theatre, and a wide array of water toys.
Talisman Maiton – Season 3
Named for an island in Thailand, TAILSMAN MAITON is a stunning tri-deck that cruises the pristine waters of Italy and all of the Mediterranean. The largest to ever be featured on the show, TAILSMAN is truly incredible.
The yacht accommodates 12 guests, in 6 beautifully appointed rooms. There’s a master suite, as well as 1 VIP stateroom, and four smaller cabins. The yacht was built in 2006, but most recently refit in 2016 with a timeless Art Deco aesthetic. The yacht also features a sundeck spa pool with a beautiful bar, a full-service gym, and an observation deck with panoramic views.
How Long Are the Below Deck Charters?
Here’s a little-known secret about Below Deck: The “charter season” on the show is just a few weeks. In fact, the yachts are actually booked for about six weeks, and their regular crews are sent home. In other words, the charters on Below Deck are actually a charter within a charter!
Each of the Below Deck charters last just a few days, and each episode features new charter guests.
Below Deck Yacht Rental Costs
Hiring a yacht from Below Deck isn’t cheap. The majority cost in the neighborhood of $150,000 per week. Yet, that charter rate doesn’t include expenses, including fuel, dockage fees, and taxes.
Yet, for that price, you’ll get a truly world-class experience. The crews of each of these yachts provide first-class service and all of the boats are fully loaded with amenities. There’s nothing quite like it in the world. And by hiring one of these superyachts, you’ll also have bragging rights for chartering a yacht featured on a TV show!

When you understand the various factors that can affect the price, you can better prepare yourself for the expense and find the best option according to your preferences and budget.
Size and Style of the Yacht : Larger yachts with more luxurious amenities and features will generally be more expensive than smaller or simpler vessels. For example, a 34 to 35-foot boat might rent for about €2,000 per week, whereas a 40-footer might rent for €3,200 per week for the same dates.
Season and Availability : Peak seasons, such as the summer months in the Mediterranean or the winter months in the Caribbean, may see increased demand and higher prices than off-season dates. Booking well in advance can help secure better rates and ensure availability.
Crew and Additional Services : A fully crewed charter with a luxury private villa or hotel room may cost around $30,000, including meals, transport, and activities. However, some charters require you to pay for these expenses separately, so it's essential to check what's included beforehand.
Location : Depending on the yacht and where you plan to sail, the charter cost may vary due to regional pricing differences and local taxes or fees. For instance, a yacht charter in the Mediterranean may have different costs than one in the Caribbean or Southeast Asia.
These costs may vary depending on the yacht you choose.
Fuel Consumption : The amount you'll spend on fuel is highly dependent on factors like the distance you travel, the yacht's fuel efficiency, and the price of diesel at the time of your charter. Keep in mind that the longer you cruise, the greater the cost of fuel.
Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) : The APA is used to cover expenses like food, beverages, port fees, and other costs that may arise during the charter. Typically, guests can accumulate an additional 25% to 50% of the base charter fee through the APA, depending on what is consumed. Remember to budget accordingly for these expenses.
Crew Gratuity : It's customary to tip the yacht's crew at the end of your charter. Tips are usually around 15% to 20% of the total real cost of the charter. This is an important aspect to keep in mind while planning your trip, as it directly impacts the crew's income.
Finding the Right Yacht : To start planning your dream yacht vacation, first browse through the available yachts featured on Below Deck, such as St. David, Honor or Lumiere, Ohana or Rhino, Eros or Stay Salty, Valor or BG, My Seanna or Starship, Parsifal III, Mercury, Thalassa or Keri Lee III, Home, Ionian Princess, Sirocco, Talisman Maiton, The Wellington, and Lady Michelle. Consider factors such as the yacht's size, amenities, and the number of guests it can accommodate.
Contact a Yacht Charter Broker or Agency : Once you've selected your preferred yacht, reach out to a reputable yacht charter broker or agency who can guide you through the booking process. They will help you with pricing details and availability for your desired dates. Remember that the cost will vary depending on the yacht, the length of your stay, and other additional expenses.
Review and Customize Your Itinerary : Work with your charter broker to create a tailored itinerary that suits your preferences and interests. They will help you plan the perfect destinations, activities, and menu for your 3-day charter. Make sure to communicate any specific needs or requests during this stage, such as dietary restrictions or any celebratory events that may be taking place during your trip.
Sign Contract and Make Payment : Once you are satisfied with your itinerary and pricing, your charter broker will provide you with a contract outlining the terms and conditions of your yacht charter. Review the contract carefully, sign it, and then make the necessary payments according to the payment schedule mentioned in the agreement. Keep in mind that your broker may require a deposit to secure your booking and that the final payment may be due several weeks before your departure.

How Much Does It Cost To Rent The Yachts On Below Deck?
Watching Bravo's Below Deck , it's kind of impossible not to fantasize about renting one of the featured luxury yachts for yourself. For most of us regular folks, the idea of lounging around having every need tended to by a crew of hot, young twentysomethings is an experience we're only going to get watching this particular show (and its drama-filled spin-off, Below Deck Mediterranean , of course).
Still, it's fun to dream. And if our funds ever permit us to, the first stop would be one of these huge boats replete with gold bathroom fixtures, luxuriously expansive guest cabins, and Michelin-star service. So, how much exactly would that set you back?
The Below Deck yachts do not come cheap
According to Worldwide Boat, the cheapest you can rent one of the featured yachts (the Ohana, from season 2) is $140,000 per week. The rest range in price all the way up to a whopping €231,000 (around $256,000 per week) for the Talisman Maiton, which was featured on Below Deck Med season 3.
According to Yacht Charter Fleet , the smaller super-yachts, including the Ionian Princess , the Valor , and the Sirocco , rent for approximately $154,000 to $199,500 per week, depending on the season and the boat. The good news, though, is the Ohana is $140,000 per week at any time of year, so it's something of a bargain compared to the others.
As for the mid-range yachts, the Eros is currently not available for rent, nor is the recently-redone Honor . The biggest super-yachts, meanwhile, are way out of seemingly anybody's price range. The aforementioned Talisman Maiton goes for the same massive fee no matter the time of year, while My Seanna , at 185 feet, is $294,000 a week in the winter and $315,500 a week in summer.
Appearing on Below Deck might save you some money
Those looking to appear on Below Deck might get a discount as, according to The Forward Cabin , charter guests who feature only pay around $11,000 each for the privilege, and that includes airfare, hotels, and more. The charters are shorter, however, clocking in at just a few days each according to Worldwide Boat .
It's still a massive discount considering the show's own Kate Chastain told ET , "Generally a boat that size, 150 foot — this one's 160, Valor — but around that price range, for seven days, is around $150,000. But that does not include airfare, fuel, food, wine, docking, tip. So, I would say for a boat like Valor, for a week vacation, it would be around a quarter of a million dollars."
If you're more interested in owning rather than renting a yacht, be forewarned; Denison Yachting advises it'll cost around $4.75 million annually for a 180-foot vessel, including around $400,00 for fuel, $350,000 for dockage, $240,000 for vessel insurance, $1 million for maintenance and repairs, and $1.4 million for crew salaries.
They're definitely pricey, but the Below Deck yachts are worth it
Chartering a luxury yacht, particularly one featured on Below Deck, costs so much for one major reason: You're getting a first class experience. As noted by Worldwide Boat , the expert crews working these boats are the best of the best (despite what the hit show and its spin-off, may lead us to believe), and the amenities boasted by each truly have to be seen to be believed. Put simply, this is a once in a lifetime vacation.
Take the Ionian Princess, which boasts a sun deck featuring a Jacuzzi and breathtaking views. The gorgeous boat, originally built in 2005, also includes luxury accommodations across six cabins for up to 12 guests. Likewise, the Dutch-built Sirocco, which was made in 2006, also features a sun deck but it's equipped with a gym, making it even more special. Elsewhere on-board there's an alfresco party deck, theater, and plenty of other amenities for fun both on and off the water.
The yachts featured on Below Deck are basically floating luxury hotels
The mighty Talisman Maiton, meanwhile, fittingly named for a stunning Thai island, is a superb, tri-deck yacht. Although it accommodates 12 guests total, the boat also features a master suite and a VIP stateroom, so exclusivity is key. It was refit in 2016 (the yacht was originally built in 2006) and now features a glorious sun deck and spa pool complete with a bar, gym, and an all-important observation deck with panoramic views.
The huge My Seanna also boasts a master suite and VIP stateroom, as well as a chic beach club, fittings brushed in 22 carat gold, a sundeck sauna and gym, helipad, and even an outdoor movie theater. Act quickly and you might just get a discount on it, as Yacht Charter Fleet previously advertised that the first three charters to the Bahamas this past summer were subject to an insane 35 percent price reduction.
Chartering a Below Deck yacht is something most of us will only ever dream of doing, but it's not hard to understand why those who have the cash choose to splash out for the privilege.

The Wellington Yacht: Specs & Cost
The wellington yacht: what you need to know about the ‘below deck’ vessel.
On the fifth season of the hit TV show Below Deck Mediterranean , the luxury yacht featured was the biggest boat in the series’ history. 1 Captain Sandy Yawn and her crew sailed charter clients around the Spanish resort town of Mallorca in The Wellington yacht. In actuality, the 184.5-foot luxury yacht is called The Wellesley and was only called The Wellington on the show. Outside of the show, the M/Y The Wellesley is available for charter. Don’t worry, there won’t be any reality TV cameras on board! Our team at Yacht Management South Florida Inc. provide a look at this vessel, as well as many other insights on our yacht maintenance blog , to let our current and future clients have a better idea of what's going on in the industry.
M/Y THE WELLESLEY Details
Built in 1993 by Netherlands based custom yacht builder Oceanco, it went through a major yacht refit in 2016. Coming out to 184.5 feet or 56.2 meters in length, the superyacht has a cruising speed of 14 knots and can reach a maximum speed of 16 knots. Its exterior was designed by Gerhard Gilgenast and its elegant 1920s inspired interior was designed by Donald Starkey. Mahogany bedrooms, Italian linens, and painted portraits of Winston Churchill and Che Guevara smoking cigars are just a few of the details that bring in Jazz Age glamour to the vessel's interior.
"Obviously, they spared no expense when it comes to this. This owner really loves his cigars and his whiskey." – Captain Sandy Yawn 2
Accommodation & Amenities
With one master suite, one VIP suite, 3 triple cabins, and 2 pullman beds, M/Y The Wellesley accommodates up to 12 guests. The vessel can also accommodate up to 12 crew members to ensure a luxury experience for guests.

How much does it cost to charter a yacht from below deck.
If you’ve watched Below Deck or Below Deck Mediterranean, you have surely been absorbed by the captivating drama of the cast’s lives. But more stunning than the cast are the beautiful superyachts that serve as the stage for the drama. But how much does it cost? It costs $140,000 to $275,000 per week to charter a yacht from ‘Below Deck’. The average price you should expect to pay is north of $180,000 to charter a boat that has been on the later seasons of ‘Below Deck’. But if you get featured on the show, you’ll probably only pay half of the charter rate due to a 50% discount from the production. In this article, you will learn more about the prices of those yachts featured in the famous TV show. You will also find out whether Captain Lee comes with the yachts and how you can meet the cast and crew of ‘Below Deck’ in real life. But first, let’s explore the process of chartering a yacht from ‘Below Deck’.
How to charter a Yacht from ‘Below Deck’?
However…
Because the average yacht on the show is worth over 18 million dollars, most yacht rentals don’t let the production shoot on their yachts for free promotion. In such instances, there is no exchange of free marketing and discounts, which is why most boats you see on the show have their names disguised with a show version name. Below, you’ll find the list of all the featured yachts and their real names.
Season | Show Name | Real Name | Length | Charter Rate |
---|---|---|---|---|
Season 9 | MY SEANNA | STARSHIP | 185′ | From $260,000/week |
Season 8 | MY SEANNA | STARSHIP | 185′ | From $260,000/week |
Season 7 | VALOR | BG | 153.10′ | From €140,000/week |
Season 6 | MY SEANNA | STARSHIP | 185′ | From $260,000/week |
Season 5 | VALOR | BG | 153.10′ | From €140,000/week |
Season 4 | VALOR | BG | 153.10′ | From €140,000/week |
Season 3 | EROS | STAY SALTY | 161′ | Not Available |
Season 2 | OHANA | STAR DIAMOND | 154′ | From $160,000/week |
Season 1 | HONOR | BARENTS | 164.1′ | From €155,000/week |
Season | Show Name | Real Name | Length | Charter Rate |
---|---|---|---|---|
Mediterranean 6 | LADY MICHELLE | LADY MICHELLE | 180′ | From $275,000/week |
Mediterranean 5 | THE WELLINGTON | THE WELLESLEY | 184’5 | From €230,000/week |
Mediterranean 3 | TALISMAN MAITON | TALISMAN MAITON | 177.1′ | From €231,000/week |
Mediterranean 1 | IONIAN PRINCESS | IONIAN PRINCESS | 150′ | Not Available |
How high are the prices for Yachts from ‘Below Deck’?
Can you get Captain Lee on your Yacht?
Captain Lee is not attached to any specific yacht from the show ‘Below Deck’. If you charter a yacht from the show, there is no guarantee that the crew will be the same cast as it was on ‘Below Deck’. On the other hand, you can charter a yacht that’s never been featured on the show and still get Captain Lee. Please contact us upfront if you want to charter a specific yacht from the show and if you have any wishes regarding the crew. You can request Captain Lee for your yacht charter and specifically request for his staff from ‘Below Deck’. We at Noblesse Yachts will make all the arrangements for you. But that doesn’t guarantee you’ll be featured on the reality TV series ‘Below Deck’, as not all of Captain Lee’s adventures are featured in the series.
An easier way to meet Captain Lee and his crew is to apply for the show. Instead of paying for a superyacht charter and Captain Lee independently, you can book them as a package deal – if you are willing to be featured on the show. Please note that Captain Lee Yacht availability keeps decreasing by the minute. He has brand deals, collaborations, and other engagements that can further narrow his time for in-person captaining. In other words, getting the stud of the sea to captain your yacht will take far more than the average yacht captain’s quote.
For fans of captain Lee on Below Deck, there are meet-and-greet events as well as the option to get a personalized video message .
Getting featured on the Netflix-Show ‘Below Deck’: The Process
Getting featured on Below Deck entails:
- answering the casting call of the production company that shoots the show
- willingness to pay 50% of the yacht charter price and 100% of the staff tips
- getting interviewed by the casting director
How to charter a yacht from ‘Below Deck’ – without actually being on the show
If you want to rent a yacht from ‘Below Deck’, you can simply contact us . We have all available dates, charter prices, and itineraries for every yacht featured on the show. Is your preferred yacht not available? Don’t worry. The yacht charter market is BIG, and we can almost guarantee that we will find a suitable option for your desired dates or destination.
Are there any hidden costs when chartering a yacht from ‘Below Deck’?
Although charter prices for yachts from ‘Below Deck’ start at a whopping $140,000 per week, these prices don’t include standard charter extras. Alongside paying for the staff tips (usually 10% of the charter price), you may need to pay for docking fees, applicable taxes, and the APA (advance provisioning allowance).
We will gladly calculate any applicable extra costs to avoid you getting surprised by hidden fees and taxes. Depending on the destination, the docking fees will be listed and accessible (to an extent).
What you need to know before getting aboard a yacht on ‘Below Deck’
- You have to pay – The production will contribute to your yacht charter, but you will not leave the show with any profit. That distinguishes the show from many other reality shows. However, you will save a significant amount of money, that’s for sure.
- You’ll get a discount on the charter rate – The production will pay for 50% of the yacht charter price. The trend shows that they choose bigger yachts with every season because people are willing to pay more to get on the screen.
- You pay 100% of the staff tips – That’s usually 10% of the charter’s total price. You might want to tip more if you want to show your generosity.
- You are willing to ‘work’ on your vacation – It really does involve work, as you have to be camera-ready and may have to re-enact real-life interactions if cameras are unavailable when something significant happens.
What is the minimal booking period for a Luxury Yacht Rental?
- Maldives – Decent yacht availability, low rates
- Turkey – Broader superyacht availability, good rates
- Dubai – Superyachts are available for hourly, sharing, and rental. Expensive
- Greece – Narrow yacht availability, low rates
- Croatia – Narrowest yacht availability, low rates

How Much Does it Cost to Charter a Below Deck Yacht?
Ever since its debut in the summer of 2013, the ‘ Below Deck ‘ franchise has been following the experiences of crew members who live and work aboard luxurious vessels as it sails through beautiful locations across the world. From navigating their roles and interpersonal relationships to meeting every demand of their seemingly overbearing guests, they essentially have to do it all. However, let’s be honest, as onlookers, we do cut the patrons some slack considering the evident, exuberant amounts of money they spend on a vacation. So now, let’s find out the actual cost, shall we?
When you charter a vessel from the list of ‘Below Deck’ superyachts, you can expect 150+ feet of deluxe comfort, including a personalized itinerary, suitcase management, water activities, and turn-down services, amongst much more. You can even request off-boat excursions — planned and executed by the vessel’s crew members — to ensure that you get everything in one place without any serious efforts for complete relaxation. Though, of course, with that, you have to pay the appropriate compensation, which racks up to a minimum of $140,000 (plus expenses) for a weeklong venture.
Starting from season 1’s Honor yacht (now renamed to BARENTS), after a major refit from its new owner, a weeklong charter in this 164-foot boat begins from $175,000. Then, standing at a stunning 154 foot, season 2’s Ohana (actual name RHINO) only goes for around $140,000 per week. Season 3’s Eros (known as STAY SALTY) is unavailable for private yacht charters right now, but seasons 4, 5, and 7’s Valor (or BG) is available for the price of $158,000. Coming to the luxury we have all come to know and love as My Seanna, the 185-feet Starship is the most expensive here at $260,000/week.
As for the sails of ‘Below Deck Mediterranean’ and ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht,’ while Parsifall III from the latter costs between $240,000 to $280,000 a week to rent, Ionian Princess from the former’s season 1 starts at about $163,000. The Sirocco of seasons 2 and 4 lands in the pricey range of $192,000 to $213,500, whereas season 3’s Talisman Maiton crosses the $250,000 mark.
As for The Wellington in the fifth season, the 184.5-feet beauty goes from $260,000 to $280,000 for a week. However, season 6’s Lady Michelle breaks all bounds by costing between $270,000 to $310,000 plus expenses. With that said, a few years ago, show creator Mark Cronin revealed that the guests who appear on the series are given a discount of about 50% from the actual cost of chartering the vessel for three days.
“We ask them to tip about 15% to 20% of the full cost though,” Mark Cronin added on a Reddit thread . “The tip amount is up to them as well. They are not compensated, but we pay their airfare.” Along with that, the production team also supports the guests by providing hotel accommodations the night before and the night after the charter while ensuring their complete safety and comfort. Their support extends to the crew in the form of an adequate salary and a few other benefits as well.

'Below Deck Sailing Yacht' Is Returning for Season 5 After Gary's Scandal
Below Deck Sailing Yacht is coming back for season 5 after Gary King's sexual misconduct scandal.
Bravo announced on Monday, September 16, that the next season reunites Captain Glenn Shephard , chief stew Daisy Kelliher and Gary as they spend their charter season in Ibiza. The rest of the cast includes chef Cloyce Martin , chef engineer Davide Morosi , stews Diana Cruz , Danni Warren and deckhands Keith Allen and Emma Crouch .
The upcoming installment comes more than one year after Below Deck Sailing Yacht wrapped up its fourth season on Bravo in July 2023.
Gary's future as a cast member has been up in the air, however, since a production assistant from the show accused him of making unwanted advances while filming season 4.
Below Deck Sailing Yacht's Biggest Drama Through the Years
In a Rolling Stone exposé, which was published in October 2023, Samantha Suarez and other former employees, who asked to remain anonymous, accused Bravo of allegedly helping cover up Gary's inappropriate behavior.
"It was insane. There were multiple incidents of sexual harassment in front of multiple producers after this person had been given verbal warnings multiple times," one of the accusers alleged. "I had to promote and make this guy who just assaulted someone look awesome. That was my job, to make this person look cool, capable and exciting."
Samantha recalled being asked to look after Gary when he allegedly got drunk. Once filming wrapped, Samantha remained with Gary in his hotel room before he tried to stop her from leaving by pressing himself against her. Samantha alleged that Gary refused to let her leave until she started to fight back.
According to Samantha, she alerted producers about the incident , who told Gary to sleep on the boat on days when the crew wasn't filming as a way to keep him out of the hotel.
Former 'Below Deck Sailing Yacht' Stars: Where Are They Now?
Bravo addressed the allegations in a statement to Rolling Stone , saying, "Bravo is committed to maintaining a safe and respectful workplace for cast and crew on our reality shows. We require our third-party production companies to have appropriate workplace policies and trainings in place and a clear process on how to report concerns. The concerns Ms. Suarez raised in July 2022 were investigated at that time and action was taken based on the findings."
Gary has maintained his innocence since news broke about the claim. "I know [that I did nothing wrong], and I know the truth but it still hurts when people will tell lies to bring you down," he replied to a fan via Instagram one month later.
In the aftermath, Gary didn't appear at BravoCon in November 2023 despite initially being announced as a guest. He has since stated that he wasn't ruling out a Below Deck Sailing Yacht return.
A Guide to 'Below Deck' and Its Many Spinoffs
Gary replied to several Instagram users in December 2023 who reminded him there's a "life after" Below Deck .
"I hope so, will have to see but will definitely be trying to stay on peoples tv screens ," Gary wrote back. In a separate comment, Gary maintained that he would return to reality TV, adding, "I will do and hopefully be back on your screens, everyday I'm trying to better myself so hopefully if they ask me back you'll see this."

EXCLUSIVE: First Look Inside Superyacht VALOUR - Below Deck Season 4 Yacht
- Share this on Facebook
- Share this on X
- Share via Email
By Oliver Pearson 1 April 2016
In a recent exclusive, we revealed that the name of the Below Deck Season 4 yacht will be superyacht VALOUR. Now, in a further exclusive, we can unveil her real name, and show some previously unseen photographs of her interior.
Following Bravo TV's tradition of naming yachts after 'Homeric' Greek mythology, the forthcoming Below Deck Season 4 superyacht VALOUR is in actual fact the 47m/154ft motor yacht BG .
A sophisticated and modern motor yacht built by the prestigious Dutch shipyard Feadship , she possess a quality which is the yachting equivalent of a Rolls Royce. Bringing together the very best in luxury amenities in a highly styled environment, her interior decor is entirely contemporary and her outdoor areas are designed to keep up with the very best superyachts.
Her refit in 2015 was coordinated by Dee Dee Taylor Eustace, the celebrity architect and interior designer who established Taylor Hannah Architect Inc. With considerable experience in high-end residential interior design, and an extensive knowledge of the marine lifestyle, her signature use of colour and space makes BG every inch the ideal superyacht.
With this in mind, it’s no surprise that the yacht was chosen for Below Deck season 4. Indeed, it offers a suitably glamorous setting for the latest crew to treat their guests in, and showcases perfectly why private yacht charter is the most exclusive and desirable vacation choice. As we revealed in an earlier article, Below Deck Season 4 was shot around the stunning waters of the British Virgin Isles .
Like all of the other yachts featured on Below Deck, the yacht in season 4 is available to rent for private luxury yacht charter vacations
Unlike the clasically themed interior of the 46m/150ft motor yacht Ionian Princess featured in the Below Deck spin-off Below Deck Mediterranean , motor yacht BG exudes a modern charm, and employs an incredibly bright colour scheme to complement the soft and comfortable furnishings.
Working to create a ‘Hampton Beach House’ theme, the work Dee Dee Eustace carried out in the interior utilises designer fabrics and timeless furnishings to complement the expertly refined layout.
Indeed, her long main salon features an impressive symmetrical arrangement which nicely emphasises the space inside, and will certainly provide the perfect space for the amplified drama viewers have come to expect from the franchise.
Adjacent to the main salon, the dining room features an appropriately styled patina and rosewood table to ensure all guests enjoy their meals, and features a custom built wine wardrobe capable of storing up to 120 bottles of wine.
The master suite on the main deck has received the same refreshing treatment, with a comfortable seating area and a hugely voluminous en-suite feeling more like a penthouse apartment than simply a bedroom.
Each of her 5 other guest suites are similarly well designed and provide exceptional accommodation for up to 12 guests- a perfect arrangement for both families and small parties.
The exterior spaces of luxury yacht BG are just as impressive- here, guests are able to take advantage of expansive sunpads and a sizeable table for some outstanding al fresco dining.
Sure to keep the cast of Below Deck Season 4 ultra-busy is the Jacuzzi located on the upper deck. Perfectly situated for taking in oceanic views whilst enjoying a soak, the guests will certainly be after a crew capable of bringing out drinks and fresh towels at a moment’s notice.
Furthermore, the spacious dining and entertaining area on the bridge deck aft boasts a large projector screen for guests to enjoy a movie after dark.
Steps on both the port and starboard side of the aft deck provide convenient access to the full beam swim platform which is nicely extended for greater access to the water. From this platform guests are able to effortlessly board tenders, begin playing with her catalogue of towable water toys, or simply dive into the ocean to cool off.
At the Palm Beach Boat Show this year, YachtCharterFleet boarded superyacht BG following the filming of Below Deck Season 4, and will be releasing a full review shortly.
Read here for further information on any of the yachts featured in the Below Deck series , or contact your preferred charter broker if you are interested in inquiring about a vacation on-board M/Y BG.

VIDEO: See Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 Trailer! Daisy Slams Gary as a “Prick” After Failed Boatmance, Captain Glenn Warns the Crew, and a Firing is Teased, Plus New Yachties Are Introduced!
Credit: Fred Jagueneau/Bravo
The Below Deck universe is one of the popular franchises on Bravo. Fans have been clamoring for the trailer for Below Deck Sailing Yacht following the major breakdown of Daisy Kelliher and Gary King ‘s short-lived romance last season. Now, it’s finally here, and the trailer teases everything viewers want — drama, romance, and breaking the rules with the guests.
As fans of Below Deck Sailing Yacht know, each season of the show takes place in a different location. Now in its fifth season, the show is set in Ibiza. Season four of the show was set in Italy. This new season comes after Gary was accused of sexual assault.
The new season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht seems like a good time based on the trailer, which comes exclusively from E! News . As it begins, Daisy can be heard saying, “Going into this season, I got rid of some dead weight. The breakup did a number on me last year. I felt very broken. But now, I’m coming back in more focused, full of energy and I’m f–king good at my job. And I’m taking back the reigns.”
Of course, she is referencing her breakup with Gary. She then counters the previous statement by saying, “It’s gonna be a s–t show.”
The trailer then teases a bit of work-related drama as she says to Gary, “Guess what? We have a f–king job to do, and I’m not f–king carrying this season on my own, you f–king prick!”
Naturally, the season isn’t only about the failed romance between Daisy and Gary. The trailer also shows the crew getting a bit too friendly with the guests. Captain Glenn Shephard , who is clearly upset, can be seen reprimanding the crew after having too many drinks with the guests.
He says, “You guys went out with some guests, I set some ground rules. Two drinks maximum. You knew the rules, you broke the f–king rules, and now you’re here getting upset.”
This season also welcomes some new faces. There’s Chef Cloyce Martin , Chief Engineer Davide Morosi , Stew Diana Cruz , Stew Danni Warren , and Emma Crouch as the deckhand.
Fans can watch the premiere of season five of Below Deck Sailing Yacht on October 7.

Here's What It Costs To Charter The Below Deck Season 9 Yacht
Spoiler: it's a lot.
The Below Deck cast is climbing back aboard the My Seanna for Season 9, and yes, it's still just as expensive to charter the ship. The luxurious vessel boasts six cabins for 12 guests as well as numerous amenities including a helipad, on-deck hot tub, movie theater, gym, and beach club, according to the yacht booking company Yacht Charter Fleet. Guests can also explore the ocean with the included wave runners, wakeboard, water trampoline, or snorkeling equipment.
All of that fun will cost you. Yacht Charter Fleet reports that during the summer, chartering My Seanna can run anywhere from $338,000 to $395,000 per week. Winter rates are a bit lower, running between $294,000 and $392,000. The ship sails the Caribbean making stops in the Bahamas in the summer as well as Saint Martin, St. Barts, Antigua, and the Virgin Islands in the winter.
The ship was originally built in 2000 but was renovated in 2014 to add 25 extra feet to the decks, per MegaYacht News. That's the version fans saw in Below Deck Seasons 6 and 8 and will see again in Season 9. It's being captained by both Lee Rosbach and Sean Meagher, who briefly took over for Lee while he was dealing with an undisclosed health issue at the beginning of the season. Meagher, an active broker for Worth Avenue Yachts , was also the listing agent for My Seanna. According to My Boat International, it sold in July 2021 and was listed at $21.9 million.
In 2019, the yacht was being chartered with a 35% discount. That rate is no longer available, but those willing to go on Below Deck may be able to spend a little less. When Below Deck: Mediterranean Season 2 was in production, a casting announcement said that the show was booking groups of guests for a significant charter discount. Instead of paying upwards of $100,000, the trip cost $55,000 for five people, working out to $11,000 each. That only included three days on the yacht, but guests also got to stay in a five-star hotel in Croatia for two days and all their airfare was covered.
So if you happen to have $50,000 lying around, keep an eye on the Bravo casting page . Otherwise, tune in to Below Deck to see all of the drama unfold from the comfort of your couch.

Captain Glenn, Daisy Kelliher & Gary King Are Going To Ibiza For ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ Season 5

‘Below Deck Med’s Chef Johnathan Shillingford Thinks Aesha Scott Handled Those Rude Charter Guests “Very Well”
‘below deck’s 8 worst guests of all-time: from jill zarin to delores the midnight swimmer, ‘below deck mediterranean’ exclusive clip: aesha scott stands up for herself against a rude charter guest.
At long last, Below Deck Sailing Yacht returns for its fifth season on October 7. Captain Glenn Shephard , chief stew Daisy Kelliher , and first mate Gary King are leading the Parsifal III into unchartered waters this season: Ibiza. While fans will miss OG cast member Colin MacRae—whose romance with Kelliher ended very, very badly—there is a new crew of yachties to obsess over this season. Chief engineer Davide Morosi, chef Cloyce Martin, deckhands Keith Allen and Emma Crouch, and stews Diana Cruz and Danni Warren will no doubt be stirring up trouble as they work hard during charters and party hard on their nights off.
The trailer begins on a sad note. Now single, Kelliher returns to the Parsifal III. “Going into this season, I got rid of some dead weight,” Kellier says via voiceover as footage of MacRae and Kelliher canoodling flashes on the screen. “The breakup did a number on me last year, but now, I’m coming back more focused, full of energy.” As she sits triumphantly in her confessional seat, Kelliher says firmly to camera: “I’m fucking good at my job, and I’m taking back the reins.” On cue, the very next scene is Kelliher yelling at King while he lies in his bunk. “I’m not fucking carrying this season on my own, you fucking prick!” The more things change, the more they stay the same.
The trailer then continues to show off its new setting: Ibiza. “Ibiza is known as being the party capital of the world,” says Captain Glenn via voiceover. As guests are shown enjoying themselves, the yacht heels, causing random objects to shatter. Later, the crew gathers for their first meeting. “This is the last time we’ll all be friends so enjoy it,” Kelliher tells the team. “We”ll either fuck each other or fight each other.” “Or both,” replies Captain Glenn cheekily.
A montage of chaos ensues as Kelliher spills a drink, guests boink their heads, and Martin sets off a fire alarm while trying to achieve a fancy, flaming presentation. Morosi is even shown fully nude trying drunkenly to climb into the bed above Captain Glenn’s in their shared cabin. “You all right?” asks Captain Glenn warily. “Nearly,” says Morosi shakily.
While several hookups between the crew are shown—including Kelliher and Martin—and people are shown doing their jobs poorly, the most dramatic part of the trailer involves Captain Glenn’s reading the crew the riot act after giving them permission to party with some guests during a charter. “I set some ground rules, two drinks maximum,” says Captain Glenn as he scolds the crew. “You knew the rules, you broke the fucking rules, and now you’re here getting upset.” Stunned, the group can only look on.
As the trailer ends on a dramatic scene when another yacht is about to crash into the Parsifal III. Below Deck Sailing Yacht fans are left to wonder: could this be the most dramatic season yet? Tune in to Bravo on Monday, October 7 at 9/8c to find out!

Below Deck: Signs Fraser Olender Is A Producer Plant
10 actors whose best movie was a box office flop, 10 alien rip off movies that are actually pretty good.
The reality TV franchise Below Deck is set on a luxury yacht, with a crew expected to provide demanding and obscenely wealthy guests with everything they ask for during their short stints at sea. Viewers also watch the crew members cut loose and relax between sailings. The best Below Deck seasons include a balance of smooth sailing and drama. Nowadays, the series has multiple spinoffs, which follow the same theme, with just as many fun (but sometimes troubling) guests.
After dealing with guests, the crew must find time to relax before the next charter. From drunken, boorish behavior to guests who make impossible requests (and some who don’t know how to take no for an answer), the Below Deck franchise shows that working on a luxury yacht is not exactly a dream job . While guests' antics don't come close to the most shocking Below Deck moments , they can definitely cause a stir.
12 Chelsea and Michael Gonella
Below deck (season 9, episode 9).
Chelsea and Michael incurred problems before even boarding the ship. On season 9 of Below Deck , Chelsea was introduced to the crew as a passenger still recovering from oral surgery. Chelsea had recently injured herself from a bicycle accident and arrived with her jaw wired shut. While many fans initially empathized with the woman, her attitude and entitlement put many audience members off .
During her time with the crew, Chelsea insisted that every course would be blended and then strained to her liking. This included seafood. Rather than settling for blended smoothie alternatives, Chelsea opted to have her oysters and lobsters blended for her. Fans crowded to Reddit to share their disgust with the liquidized concoctions and her overall demeanor. Several claim to have undergone the same procedure but stated that they would have never thrown the same tantrum over meals.
Below Deck (Season 8, Episode 11)
In season 8, a guest named Delores had far too much to drink after a day on the water and was very tired when dinner ended. However, instead of calling it a night, Delores kept the party going by attempting a late-night swim. Delores’ friends (and the crew) warned her that she wasn't allowed to swim in the ocean at night, as it was a safety hazard.
Captain Lee Rosbach stepped in and warned her that he'd send her home if she jumped in the water. To spite them all, Delores ignored everyone and dove into the ocean. In the process, Dolores managed to put herself at risk while ruining the experience of everyone around her. The following day, Captain Lee sent Delores packing. However, she proceeded to jump off the mini boat to shore . Dramatic times like this make Below Deck one of the best reality shows .
Below Deck (Season 7, Episode 3)
A season 7 episode nearly ended in disaster after one of the guests had far too much to drink on Below Deck . Charter guest Brandy seemed to have already had a few drinks when she boarded the yacht, and when the group later went ashore for a picnic, the crew became so concerned about her well being that they took her back to the ship for medical treatment . Meanwhile, the group that accompanied Brandi on the trip seemed to be more worried about the inconvenience her drunkenness would cause them.
It was a moment that separated Below Deck from other reality TV shows because of how dangerous the situation could have been. There are plenty of scripted scenes on Below Deck, but this situation was not one of them. Like Delores, Brandy was a demanding charter guest because of her negligence and stress-inducing behavior.
9 Nichelle Gainey And Areca Whatmore
Below deck mediterranean (season 3, episode 2).
Friends Nichelle Gainey and Areca Whatmore made quite an impression on the crew when they boarded the Talisman Maiton on Below Deck Mediterranean. Perhaps the two women were not used to the finer things in life, but their outraged reaction to being served pasta in bowls instead of plates was just the start of their confrontations with the crew. They even escalated their complaints to Captain Sandy, who had more important things to worry about than whether someone’s wine glass was empty or the dish their pasta was served in.
Following the bowl fiasco and several aggressive complaints hurled at the crew members, stewardess Hannah was forced to apologize to the group. After begrudgingly accepting Hannah's apology, the group continued to make the next dinner as unbearable as possible. Captain Sandy sat in on this dinner to ensure their satisfaction. The women were served lobster, and a guest, who expressed dislike for shellfish, complained when she was served duck instead. The captain, who is quick to defend guests, did the unthinkable: she came to the rescue of Hannah, proving that Hannah was not at fault.
8 Steve Bradley
Below deck (season 3, episode 1).
Steve Bradley was one of a handful of guests who made two appearances on Below Deck , first in season 3 when he demanded that the crew throw him and his friends a foam party, and again in season 6 when he continued to make outrageous demands of the team , who found it challenging to deal with his rowdy behavior. While the crew, tending to his every need, may have suffered from his visit, audiences couldn’t help but laugh at his constant state of insobriety and raucous personality.
Steve even insisted, after discovering that Aerosmith was in the area, that the crew track him down. There didn’t seem to be an afterthought after blurting out this request. Unfortunately, he was also one of the series' most flirty guests, which always results in a problematic charter. While he wasn’t the worst Below Deck guest, he was undoubtedly one of the most demanding and unpredictable clients Captain Lee and his team had to deal with.
7 The Florida State Alumni Crew
Below deck (season 7, episode 7).
In season 7, friends who met at Florida State in their younger years hopped on the yacht for pirate-themed nights and to relive their college days. The friends proceeded to make the crew members’ lives as difficult as possible with inappropriate comments and absurd demands. The few members of the group were so obnoxious and rude to the crew that stewardess Kate commented:
"Anybody who is still talking about college peaked in college, and that's embarrassing."
Unfortunately, the charter guest, Michael, was inappropriate from the start. He began flirting with stewardess Simone and continued making advances towards her, regardless of how uncomfortable she was. Kate Chastain eventually stepped in and put Simone below deck to get her out of an unpleasant situation she should have never been in. The guest’s behavior crossed a line, taking a college reunion from a fun trip to a situation bordering on harassment. The uncomfortable dynamics make him one of the worst.
6 Charley Walters
Below deck (season 8, episode 14).
Demanding guest Charley Walters had a penchant for making the male crew members dress up in tiny Speedos while serving dinner and drinks. Charlie even had the chef running around in circles trying to meet all his exacting demands. By his third appearance, Charley had gotten accustomed to the chief stewardess, Kate Chastain, and her ability to bend to his will. Unfortunately for chef Francesca Rubi, this was her first time on the boat and his demands were all too much. The same was true for all other crew members outside Captain Lee and bosun Eddie Lucas.
Tensions rose so high that new chef Rachel was brought to tears by the problematic guest. Walters later claimed on social media that producers told him to be over the top. Many fans have difficulty shifting the blame to the producers. A guest needs to perform outrageous acts for the footage to exist. A fine line exists between entertaining and being so demanding that professionals have difficulty doing their jobs.
5 Simon Tusha
Below deck (season 1, episode 4).
Simon Tusha, the owner of the company that provided the luxury yachts for the Below Deck series, was featured as a guest in season 1, and his behavior went down like a lead balloon with the crew. Unsurprisingly, when he arrived, he maintained an air of superiority over those around him. Taking advantage of his position and monetary success, he crossed boundaries by making inappropriate comments to female crew members and being rude to Kate.
Worst of all, chief stewardess Adrienne Gang refused to support her crew, insisting they had to get used to Simon’s sense of humor. According to The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette , after the episode aired, Tusha was sentenced to 21 months in jail for his part in a bribery case. His entire persona on deck matched what was said about him in court, making him one of the show’s more controversial guests.
4 Charles Yim
Below deck (season 6, episode 5).
According to Cheat Sheet , Below Deck guest Charles Yim claimed the show made his stay on the yacht look worse than it was. Yim and his guests certainly made the most of their time on the My Seanna , and perhaps the most shocking moment was when the crew found a used condom in the living area .
Charles, the inventor of the Breathometer, had an incredibly negative reaction to the episode and claimed that the condom was planted. He believes the show fabricated scenes because he and his group were “ too boring .” He also went out of his way to complain about several crew members including second stew Josiah Carter and chief stew Kate Chastain. Regarding the condom, the entrepreneur heavily implied that the crew member who found it, Caroline, was not invited to return for the next season. The charter was overall an awkward experience for everyone involved.
3 Erica Rose and Charles Sanders
Below deck (season 3, episode 4).
When former Bachelor star Erica Rose first appeared on Below Deck during season 2, she was initially criticized for her unruly and aggressive guests. When returning with her husband Charles Sanders, audiences were shocked by their treatment of staff and their meager tip . Surprisingly, Charles Sanders proved to be the most troublesome guest. Charles proceeded to complain about the food calling it “ gross ” and redirected his hate at a fellow guest Janelle, calling her a “ b**** .”
After causing copious drama and exhausting the crew, Erica Rose left the staff a minuscule tip . Many fans point out that Rose’s tip was the smallest in the show’s history. In an interview with RealityBlurb , Erica was quick to defend her and her husband’s actions. She claimed that while she has been in the public eye, her husband did not know how to ask appropriately. Erica indicated that the show pushed the couple to amp up the drama and that her husband was simply trying to entertain. Many viewers rejected her vague apology with overwhelmingly negative comments.
2 Krystal Murphy
Below deck (season 6, episode 15).
Cyndi Lauper sang, "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun , " but investment banker Krystal Murphy and her friends said girls want copious amounts of alcohol and fistfights with each other. After over-indulging in cocktails and wine, the primary charter guest fell asleep at the dinner table before punching one of her friends in the face . Following an alcohol-induced collapse, Krystal was wrapped in a blanket that chief stewardess Kate Chastain fondly referred to as her “ shame cocoon ” and then awakened by a friend. She proceeded to attack this friend and proceed the next morning as if nothing had happened.
She made outrageous demands throughout the trip, leading one of Below Deck 's best chief stews , Kate, to label her a “ spoiled brat. ” Since the show aired, she has remained private on social media. While public backlash has been heavy, Krystal has yet to make a statement regarding her less-than-favorable portrayal. She will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the most obnoxious Below Deck guests ever.
1 Timothy Sykes
Below deck (season 2, episode 10).
According to Cheat Sheet , when Captain Lee was asked about the worst Below Desk guest, he didn’t hesitate with his answer: Timothy Sykes, the entrepreneur with a much younger girlfriend who spent the whole trip complaining that there was no Wi-Fi and that the kitchen crew was ignoring all their particular food requests.
To make things worse, Timothy handed over a $17,000 tip at the end of the trip but then asked Captain Lee to give him back $5,000 because his girlfriend didn’t like the food. His girlfriend looked visibly embarrassed by this indiscretion. Most fans who have worked in customer service recoiled at the awkwardness of this scene. In the service industry, there's nothing worse than having to give money back to a guest. For this reason, Sykes takes the cake as the worst guest in Below Deck history.
