Below Deck is returning for season 13 with new and old faces.
Bravo released the first look on Monday, September 21, which featured Captain Kerry Titheradge front and center on motor yacht Azul V. He is joined by chief stew Fraser Olender and second stew Rainbeau de Roos, who both are returning to the franchise again.
New crew members include Chef Moe Vilomar, Bosun Alex Wright, deckhands James Bishop, Matthew Fitzpatrick-Buck and Jessenia Stidger and stews Kaylee Brown and Rosa Simms-Preston.
Season 13 also marks the first time Below Deck is back in Thailand since 2019.
“Captain Kerry Titheradge sets sail on a new adventure as he takes the helm of motor yacht Azul V in Phuket, Thailand,” the official synopsis reads. “Surrounded by breathtaking islands, dramatic limestone cliffs and world-renowned beaches, Captain Kerry and his crew strive to deliver excellent white-glove service while adapting to a new environment, mounting pressure and increasingly tense crew dynamics.”
Fraser and Rainbeau, meanwhile, “quickly find themselves managing tensions” within the interior.
“Despite clashing personalities, green crew members and the challenges of adapting to a new boat, Fraser once again thrives under pressure while creating elaborate theme nights and unforgettable beach excursions throughout Thailand,” the description continues. “In the galley, Chef Moe Vilomar brings a wealth of experience from military service, fine dining and private charters, but demanding guests and nonstop pressure threaten to turn up the heat. On deck, power struggles and oversized egos create friction among the crew, forcing Capt. Kerry to make a shocking decision.”
The synopsis concludes: “One rollercoaster romance sends shockwaves throughout the vessel as its dramatic highs and lows spill across multiple departments. From personnel shakeups to a dangerous nighttime docking, Capt. Kerry faces some of his toughest challenges yet, relying on his steady leadership to guide the crew through an unforgettable charter season in Thailand.”
