There’s a new chief stew in charge when Below Deck season 10 sets sail in St Lucia, and he is a very familiar face.
The beloved boat-based reality series is returning to Bravo on November 21, but it’s all change in the cast once again.
In fact, Fraser Olender has taken over the interior crew in place of Heather Chase – who was met with controversy during her time on board last year when she was heard repeating the N-word during a crew night out, and later apologized for her actions.
Fraser, who served as second stew in the last series, is running the show on Motor Yacht St David, alongside ‘stud of the sea’ Captain Lee Rosbach, who has assumed his rightful position in the wheelhouse.
Chef Rachel Hargrove will once again be hoping to impress guests with her talents in the kitchen, but the rest of the vessel has been packed with a new crew.
Ross McHarg has joined as bosun after Eddie Lucas departed the show, and is in charge of deckhands Tony Duarte, Katie Glaser and Ben Willoughby.
Hayley De Sola Pinto and Alissa Humber are serving as stewardesses with Camille Lamb, who is taking on the role of a deck/stew.
A trailer for season 10 was unveiled at BravoCon on Friday and suggested there are be stormy seas ahead, as Fraser declares: ‘You’re working with yachties, they have literally no brain cells.’

Bravo bosses also teased a dramatic twist when Captain Lee was forced to make a decision that ‘rocks the boat’.
‘While the three department heads try to keep their crew in line, the entire charter season is put in jeopardy when Captain Lee makes an unexpected decision that rocks the boat to its core,’ a message from the network confirmed.
