Below Deck Season 12 launched earlier this week. Captain Kerry Titheradge is back for his second season at the helm of Motoryacht St. David. I have to admit, he certainly looks hot on Bravo’s show page driving a jet ski in full dress uniform.
Fan favorite Fraser Olender returns for his third season as Chief Stew. Though he’s got that British dry sense of humor, Fraser’s a total professional on the job. But he’s not afraid to cut loose with his team on their nights out.
This season takes place in the azure Caribbean waters of Saint Maarten, Anguilla and Saint Barths. For possibly the first time ever on this franchise, there’s more drama with the guests than in the crew cabins below. Subsequently, as shown in the Season 12 trailer, Captain Kerry calls the maritime police to the yacht. “I had to go speak to the local police in French to deal with the situation,” Fraser revealed.
A group of porn stars join Below Deck Season 12 for a five-day charter
For the first time ever, we’ll see a group of charter guests come aboard for a five-day charter. There’s an old saying that “fish and visitors stink after three days,” so we’ll see how that goes. And these aren’t just your usual guests; they’re a group of adult film stars, so what X-rated mischief will they get up to?
“I don’t think they’ve ever done a 5-day charter in the history of Below Deck before,” Fraser told Decider. “Also, it was only our second charter. We didn’t know the boat. I didn’t know the crew. There was a lot going on. The fact that the guests were porn stars didn’t change a thing. A job’s a job.”
Apparently, the guests requested to be dominated by the crew, so Fraser appears as a total Dom (the male version of a Dominatrix – I looked it up). He must have had a ball telling the guests, “Drink you drink and shut up until you get yours.” The guests seemed to love it, too, from the clip in the trailer.
“That evening on that specific charter was my favorite experience in yachting,” the chief stew confessed. “I got to treat the guests how I truly wanted to treat them [laughs]. I really went with it, and it worked out, thankfully.
Below Deck airs Mondays at 8/7c on Bravo in the US and on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
