It’s a shame that the last horrific season of Below Deck has seemed to taint the premiere of this new show. First seasons of Bravo shows are usually the best. With the exception of Chef Adam, none of this crew, not even the captain knows what to expect. There is a stunning sailboat, an attractive captain, a super obnoxious chief stew, and a hand full of green yachties! The charter guests are interesting and there is a couple that have been together for years that were both thrust into working together on the deck. It’s perfect! Adam even throws in just a tiny dash of misogyny (so far) for those who might miss that. Thanks to those of you who enjoy the show like I do for bearing with me with the delayed Below Deck Sailing Yacht recaps. There should be only one more week of that!
The bitchy chief stew on this show is different from all the other bitchy chief stews we have met because she doesn’t do fuck all on the boat. All she does is stand in the galley with Adam alternately flirting with him and mocking her stews. We begin with Adam suggesting that Jenna “can her ass” referring to a stew who Jenna literally takes pleasure in bringing to tears. Jenna announces that she is not a bitch. Adam laughs in her face because her being a royal bitch is why he is attracted to her.
There Is Scum On Top of The Stew
It’s time for the late night bonfire and Jenna tells Madison she is going to wait on guests there literally as people are preparing to get on the tender. That leaves poor Georgia stuck with the evil overlord. Overlady? Whatever. She’s evil. Paget is constantly flirting with Georgia and she should but a stop to that because of Ciara, who he has been sleeping with on the boat for years. But, dayum the girl needs something happy in her life. She’s basically Cinderella and Jenna and Adam are the evil stepsisters. Jenna didn’t do fuck all during the bonfire and Georgia had to do everything. This put Georgia behind on her actual duties in the laundry room. So now, Madison comes back from the bonfire and is stuck on laundry and she doesn’t understand why it’s not done. Madison goes to bed at 4:30 am. Georgia gets up and finishes the laundry.

The very green deckhand is basically worthless and can’t even manage to put on the right uniform at the right time and doesn’t think it matters. He spends most of his time chatting with people. And yet, he is telling Ciara what to do, and for some dumb reason she is doing it! Madison is frustrated when Georgia mentions the laundry not being done Jenna bitches at her and now Madison seems to have an issue with her. This is all Jenna’s fault.
Dinner With The Captain
Captain Glenn has been invited to dinner by one of the female guests, Sylvia. He is very uncomfortable being the center of attention. I would also like to point out that the baby is at the table sleeping like a perfect angel. We’ve had one night of crying but she sleeps quietly all day. The food continues to impress. Oh I spoke too soon. The baby cried just for a second.

The next day, the docking went well and the guests left happy. The tip was $14k. Jenna calls the vibe between,”shmexual shmention.” I don’t get it. But Adam just laughs and laughs. I heard a rumor that these two are still together. They deserve each other.
On shore, Madison and Georgia don’t include Ciara in their girl talk and she is feeling left out and hurt. To make things worse, Paget continues to flirt with Georgia right in front of her. Why is Madson trying to flirt with Parker? Girl, standards! At least, clueless Paget checks in with his girl, Ciara. But she decided not to tell him what is wrong. I’m going to guess that happens a lot. She’s a redhead though, and it will all come out in a huge torrent of words at some point. Madison is quietly weeping and Madison comes over to cheer her up. Apparently rubbing her face in her cleavage is enough to make her laugh.
Okay, I may have to renege on my recommendation of this show if we have to see Adam and Jenna making out.
Oh MY! Last minute drama! The captain is on shore and the boat is banging into the dock! Next week we have overgrown frat boys from New York. It looks like we will be a bit more misogyny! Because, Bravo. Thanks to those who are watching with me!
The Chief Stew makes even Hannah look competent. I kind of consider Georgia a whiner, but she has a right to be with that boss.
I might be liking the Captain more than the Stud of the Sea. Probably because of what went down last season. Yes, I’ve been tainted after that horror show.
I kept thinking to myself “am I missing where Jenna does actual work?” The whining that bugs me the most is Ciara though. I cant stand listening to their dysfunctional relationship. I know she has reason to whine, I just dont want to hear it.
I love the captain, he is adorable, all shy and stuff. C’mon, get in my pocket, Captain Glenn.
I cannot believe they brought a one month old baby on a cruise. Part of me admires the mom, because I am sure her lady parts still hurt, she isnt getting sleep, and you never know what can happen out of the country in the middle of the water. My problem is, you never know what can happen out of the country in the middle of the water! Did they have a teeny tiny life vest for poor Angelica?
Sorry. I have already called Captain Glenn. His “I don’t let not having a partner stop me from doing what I want to do had been one of my mottos since I read in Cosmo when I was 16 that a woman needs to feel comfortable going to the movies alone. I could drive myself to any movie I wanted to see. It was very freeing.
I LOVE Captain Glenn!
The crew is so unlikeable that I find the show hard to watch.
Everyone is very likable except for Jenna and Adam.
Family Karma ad, maybe? It’s still bravo.
I love capt. Glenn, he is so sweet and doesn’t feel anything he can do to help his crew out is beneath him.. He is a good leader as long as the morons will be led. I think Paget is kind of a dick for flirting, but I get being flattered also. The young deck hand whose name I can’t remember really annoys me, a ton. Jenna is useless, she may think she is all that and a bag of dicks, umm I mean chips, but she isn’t. She is absolutely useless. I haven’t seen her do anything work wise except maybe the preference sheet meetings. I do love the different challenges that a sailing yacht has.
Good evening Tamara and… commenters(?) (Is that the word I’m searching for?) I still cannot decide if I am liking this Below Deck or not ? Some of it seems so repetitive, there are times I can’t get into it. However, I know this isn’t the recap for Spy Games, but I Freaking LOVE that show and I Think it’s mainly the reason why I watch BD Sailing is to get to this show (oops ?)
But back to your comment a wee bit ago, Tamara, I don’t how how, when Or where, BUT I THINK things go sour with Adam and Jenna and he and Georgia actually get together ?? ? I bet Jenna turns into an Even BIGGER Bitch Then, IF That is Even Possible?! ??
There is no way in hell that Adam ends up with Georgia. He say terrbile things about her every episode. He doesn’t even use her name, he calls her “three”. And Georgia has heard him dragging her with Jenna. Not going to happen.
Omg, I love this show. It’s the only Bravo show I watch anymore!
In the preview for the show, it shows Adam talking to Georgia saying something like “There’s something there with us.” He has to talking about Jenna though. They probably showed just a tiny clip to throw us off.
Honestly, what does Jenna do?!? I totally understand Madison’s frustration. Both the green stew and the lazy head stew push all the shit to her. I would be annoyed too. I do like Adam. I disliked him a lot when he was with Malia on the his first season. But I generally disliked her as well. He redeemed himself last season. It will be fun to watch Jenna get fired. Or maybe get fired. I know someone is gonna get fired!
Side note, I really would love to sail on one of the sailing yachts. The regular ones would be just fine too but I have no experience with sailing so it would be cool. That Russian sailing yacht looks like a floating fortress. I think it was on Below Deck Med last season. Wonder what it looks like inside???
Jenna doesn’t do a thing. But since she has a storyline with Adam she probably won’t get fired. I think it is Parker that gets fired. You can’t piss off Ciara or Paget on Captain Glenn’s boat and stay a second stew.
I still like Adam a lot but I question his taste in women. I follow him and his dog, but I guess he likes horses too! (I know I may get scolded, but …) I hate how these chief stews expect the second and thirds to know how THEY expect things to be done. The Psychic Stews Show? Something that perplexes me and pisses me off is how they repeat the terrible things that were done to them. (Like Scheana treating Dayna the way Stassi had treated her.) Some other stew gave Jenna a chance or she would be still doing laundry. Sorry, Jenna, your job is SO DIFFICULT. Boss people around, talk shit about them and serve three meals and cocktails to 6 – 12 people. Any of us who were waitresses had to serve that many people times 3 – 6 every HOUR. FOR HOURS. I hate the way she looks down at “the girls.” Paget is a douchecanoe and Ciara should RUN AWAY NOW. Especially after he said he didn’t want ginger babies. The woman you chose — or maybe not — is a ginger, you cuntsatchel! Ginger babies are adorable. (It feels good to use douchecanoe and cuntsatchel in one post!)
” (It feels good to use douchecanoe and cuntsatchel in one post!)”
It was rather impressive…

I’ve been watching. The boat is magnificent! I’ve been on lots of motor boats of varying sizes, but I’ve never been on a sailboat other than a tiny Hobie Cat. It looks so exciting and fun. Adam seems to have a hard edge that wasn’t there before. That nasty “fire her ass” comment was so uncalled for. Jenna is just a real ‘see you next Tuesday’! I despise women lIke her who have a chance to lift other women up, but instead take pleasure in stepping on them and enjoying their misery. I hope that she gets her karmic justice. Parker, the green deckhand is an asshole. He’s awfully smug for someone who sucks at his job. I too am in love with Captain Glenn. What a sweetheart he seems to be! I guess it’s because he’s Canadian, lol. Canadians really are such nice people! I wonder if he’s fluent in French since he’s originally from Montreal? Mmmm, he can whisper sweet nothings in my ear in French while we…
Oh my @mmarybeach1. Agree with your post, including Captain Glenn whispering sweet nothings.
