As Below Deck Season 11 unfolds, the luxury yacht is already facing crew challenges that have led to departures and potential firings. Bosun Jared Woodin found himself on the chopping block after a series of mishaps, including difficulties with docking the boat and an incident involving excessive alcohol consumption during a crew night out. Captain Kerry Titheradge made the tough decision to let Jared go, citing repeated performance issues.
Shortly after Jared’s exit, Stew Cat Baugh also bid farewell to the crew. Cat’s struggles to integrate with the team, coupled with personal issues back home, prompted her decision to leave the yacht. Chief Stew Fraser Olender and Captain Kerry supported Cat’s choice to prioritize her well-being, leading to her departure from the vessel.
With two crew members already gone, attention now turns to the remaining team members and the potential for further shakeups. Stew Barbie Pascual’s abrasive attitude and clashes with fellow crew members have raised concerns about her future onboard. Despite warnings from her superiors, Barbie’s reluctance to take accountability for her actions puts her at risk of facing consequences.
Deckhand Sunny Marquis faces challenges of her own, particularly in managing her emotions in the workplace. Her infatuation with Bosun Ben Willoughby has led to instances of unprofessional behavior, jeopardizing her standing on the yacht. Meanwhile, Ben himself must navigate the responsibilities of his new role as Bosun while avoiding unnecessary drama and maintaining professionalism.
Even Kyle Stillie, despite his solid performance, faces scrutiny following a recent altercation on deck. While attempting to diffuse a situation, Kyle’s involvement in a heated argument could have repercussions if similar incidents occur in the future.
As tensions simmer and conflicts escalate, the fate of the crew hangs in the balance. With potential firings looming, the remaining members must tread carefully to ensure smooth sailing ahead on Below Deck Season 11.
