My experiance with Yacht captains working on commercial vessels thread

[QUOTE=DamnYankee;191549]If that show on bravo is any indicator, count me out! I’ll give anyone credit for stellar ship handling skills and steadfast management prowess but if that show is representative of the crews I would have to deal with. No thank you sir! I also realize that my commercial shippIng demeanor and lack of respect for rich tools would not work in my favor in that particular segment of the industry. I’ll stick to my SIU allstars thank you very much.[/QUOTE]

It’s a set up. The show’s producers assemble the crews making sure they have the right balance of emotionally unstable misfits to create drama. Throw in some drunken flirting to stoke the fireworks. The charterers know the game and everybody turns it on for the cameras.
