Sadly, this season of Below Deck is coming to an end, but there is a new spin-off show premiering tonight. Below Deck Sailing Yacht starts Season 1 at 9 PM on Bravo.
We will see one familiar face, Adam Glick, a chef who appeared in two seasons of Below Deck Mediterranean. You know him best for spitefully cooking with onions despite the requests on the guests’ preference sheet and for a love triangle with Malia White and Wes Walton. Aside from Adam, the cast is full of new people.
Captain Glenn Shephard has more than 20 years of yachting experience, who prides himself on being “laid back’ and empowering his crew to take ownership of their work tasks. It will be interesting to see how this works out since these Below Deck shows aren’t known for casting the most capable workers. Drama is first and foremost when it comes to the crew members.
Jenna MacGillivray is a Chief Stew, originally from Canada. According to her cast member bio, “shedoesn’t like to be challenged and holds her team to her high standards. If someone isn’t performing to her level, Jenna is not a coddler, and will be quick to tell him them what they are doing wrong.” That sounds about right for this show.
Madison Stalker is in the galley as the Second Stew. She hails from Detroit, Michigan and is “full of energy,” according to her official bio. Apparently, she is a “sarcastic and hilarious stewardess who is always up to something.” That sounds like good TV to me.
Paget Berry is a First Mate from England, who has been sailing since he was 13. That’s impressive for sure, but what really interests me is that he came on this boat with a girlfriend. Now, it’s not a lady back home. His girlfriend of four years, Ciara Duggan, is a deckhand this season. Now, that’s something we haven’t seen on this show before: an established couple working and living together in such close quarters on reality TV.
Joining Paget and Ciara on deck is Parker McCown, who is from Maryland. He refers to himself as the “James Bond of the sailing world.” His cast bio also describes him as a “ladies man.”
