Product Overview

Manufacturer:.

Repeatable designs are where the safe money is being spent in sailing superyachts today. While some custom yards are still attracting one-off orders, in recent years it has been designs such as the Swan 115 and the Hoek Truly Classic 128s that have secured multiple orders. And in the 80-110ft sector, Southern Wind has long dominated this market.

We were given the chance to trial a prime example of its latest design in ideal conditions off Palma, Mallorca. Kiboko Tres is the third Southern Wind for this particular owner and shows the benefits of consistency and reliability that using a tried and tested recipe brings.

But what about the pizzazz, the magic? Some might wonder if, on a yacht this size, the helmsman can still feel that connection to sailing that a yachtsman craves.

However, as I was very happy to discover, to stand at the windward wheel when heeled to a gunwale and fully powered up, is to feel on top of the yachting world.

It may be superyachting, but it is most definitely still real sailing. And that is the essence of what the serial yacht owner of Kiboko Tres wanted when he upgraded from a SW94 to this SW105.

Perfecting the recipe

The brief was for a performance-oriented yacht for superyacht regattas and family sailing , but which should be easy to handle. Southern Wind consistently uses a design partnership of Farr and Nauta for its mini-series runs, resulting here in a powerful design with wide aft sections and an open transom.

The first thing you see on descending into the saloon from the deck of the 40m sloop My Song is…

Southern Wind: two new performance cruisers around 100ft

One of the conspicuous growth areas of yachting, albeit a specialised niche, is performance cruisers of around 100ft. This is…

Kiboko , the second of three hulls already delivered in this series, is optimised for performance with a larger sailplan, three tonnes more lead in the fixed keel and twin rudders.

“This calculation of additional sail area and weight provides 3.5% more stability and a higher sail area/displacement ratio,” says Jim Schmicker, vice-president of Farr. He adds that the sail area and stability parameters were chosen so it could compete on the Mediterranean superyacht circuit.

Weight is calculated meticulously at Southern Wind – more on that later – and the yard favours vacuum-infused epoxy sandwich construction with carbon used for the hull, deck and bulkheads.

Nauta’s interior for this raised saloon model is light, airy and kept deliberately simple

The choice of appendages is key to the type of sailing its owners seek. A fixed keel was chosen for Kiboko for best performance to cost ratio and maintenance benefits, whereas hull number one has a telescopic keel and number three a lifting keel.

Kiboko ’s owner, a friend of the founder, the late Willy Persico, is a serial Southern Wind owner and now one of the shareholders of the company. His SW72 launched in 2006, followed by a SW94 in 2010. Raimon Pasco has been employed as skipper for all three yachts, and has followed the builds through construction.

“The idea for the boat was to keep it as simple as possible,” he explains while showing me over the systems. “So the passarelle, for example, is manual – it’s 60kg less weight and much more simple. The owner enjoys the boat, sailing and the sea. He doesn’t want anything fancy; he wants to sail and trim.”

Joystick controls for the mainsheet and traveller on the pedestal

I asked why the owner wanted to keep upsizing. The skipper explained that it involved a balance between finding the ideal space on board for his large family and finding the right number of professional crew.

“But the big challenge for him was to go bigger without losing touch with the water,” says Southern Wind’s commercial director, Andrea Micheli, of the 94 and 105 Kiboko upgrades.

In comparison with the SW94, Kiboko Tres has room for a second genset and watermaker and a garage for a proper size tender. “Yes, it’s going bigger, but not too big.”

Direct steering linkage to the twin rudders gives the helmsman great feedback and control

Another benefit to upgrading to the SW105 is that it has a wider groove to sail in, thinks Micheli: “You can push harder while staying comfortable. And owners liked the fact it’s fast in all conditions. When cruising, it’s very rare to sail in less than five knots – which means this keen sailor is always helming.”

“He’s also a good businessman and he sells when the time is right,” adds Pasco. “He sold the 94 to the first client who saw it.” He points to the timeless style of the interiors: “Always up to date but not necessarily fashionable.”

The combined experience of owner, skipper, design team and yard helps ensure a quality product with good resale value. Southern Wind now has three decades of experience with semi-custom composite performance cruisers .

In race mode in Sardinia earlier this year. Sail area and stability were chosen to ensure she would be competitive

The Italian-managed Cape Town yard, which built 13 of the SW100 in four years, has built a reputation for combining technology with seamanlike design.

After launching in the autumn of 2018, Kiboko sailed to her Palma home berth via Cape Verdes. She took part in the Loro Piana Superyacht Regatta in June where she notched up an impressive 2nd in class.

Speed and power

Kiboko is Swahili for hippopotamus and the name was chosen to reflect speed and power. Those are certainly two of the most dominant impressions you get when sailing her.

An unhindered view forward for the helmsman over the low coachroof

It was thrilling to take Kiboko out in ideal conditions to witness this exhibition of her power. But, as mentioned, what also struck me is how connected you feel to the sailing, something that’s hard to achieve on a superyacht.

Ideally, size should be irrelevant to the helmsman of a performance yacht – although you do feel the increase in power and scale – but that communication between the sails, hull and wheel should remain. Southern Wind has helped to achieve this using its very direct connection to the quadrants.

Short-run Vectran steering cables link the chain and sprockets in the pedestals to a car running on an athwartships track that connects the rudders stocks, a system favoured on offshore racing yachts.

Kiboko is a yacht that makes you want to helm and trim actively

Setting sail on a particularly hot day with 12-15 knots blowing across Palma Bay, Kiboko quickly powered up and felt utterly in her element.

I looked up from the numbers on the mast base repeaters, remembered I was sailing a 100-footer and could not suppress a broad grin.

We were immediately up to 11.5 knots in 15 at 45-50º to the true wind. Pasco says that, with her wide transom, Kiboko likes to heel at a relatively high angle of around 25°.

So those wanting thrills can foot off a little, pop the windward rudder clear of the water, hold on and enjoy!

With temperatures in the mid 30°Cs, and 30 knots of apparent breeze now blasting over the decks, it felt like having a hair dryer constantly blowing in your face. Whether sitting to leeward looking at the telltales or standing to windward, way up high with full visibility over the low coachroof, it was truly absorbing.

A B&G readout showed 14 tonnes of forestay pressure as we sliced upwind, with speeds now nearing 12 knots in 18 true. With the breeze continuing to build at the south-east end of the bay, we reached the upper limits of the full genoa.

Personally, I’d have liked to have kept pointing a little higher to see how she handled when you feather the gusts a little, but with the boss due to arrive the following morning, the skipper was understandably keen not to push the boat.

Depowering is a simple tweak of the joystick-controlled mainsheet from the pedestal – the hydraulic captive winch responds almost instantly. Indeed, the boat is well set up for two or three people to be able to trim and get the most out of sailing her.

So on the outer edge of each pedestal are push button controls for the cunningham, vang, outhaul and backstay. An ‘active’ button, which you need to hold down when you select the desired option, is an intelligent way to prevent anything from being activated accidentally.

Fuss-free sheet leads

There is plenty of hydraulic flow available from two gensets and a PTO, allowing the crew to give full torque to any winches or furlers that may require it. We were able to furl, gybe and deploy the genoa without losing much momentum. There is also a powered padeye further forward on the stem for a code sail.

Smart systems

Below the aft sailing cockpit is a garage that includes a particularly clever system for launching the fore-and-aft stowed 4.3m/14ft tender. The yard built an H-shape high beam carbon crane within the garage, which spreads the load over its two longitudinal beams.

It’s a simple manual system that uses jib tracks to slide the tender along and a winch to lift it without placing any stress on the transom door, which means that you can use it in more swell than you can with most tender garages.

The clever H-shape carbon crane in the dinghy garage spreads the load onto two longitudinal beams

The steering system is still easily accessible from the deep quarter lockers, from where you can change the toe-in of the rudder angle, too.

Further stowage is found in a cavernous sail locker. Here the chainlocker is offset and mounted vertically, adding to the useable space, while a longitudinal partition helps keep the sails to one side.

Southern Wind has replaced the hydraulic rotating motors it used previously for retracting anchor arms with a lighter system that’s easier to maintain. This employs two hydraulic rams to pull lines attached to a quadrant and allows for a manual back up as well.

The spacious galley adjoins crew mess and quarters

Micheli went on to describe how every piece of equipment is itemised and weight tracked before it goes onto the boat to help calculate the exact centre of gravity.

The yard was reportedly 300kg below overall target weight for the RP90 Allsmoke . “We monitor the weights so carefully during construction because we know they will be sailed loaded,” says Micheli.

A crew companionway leads directly from the sailing cockpit to the nav station and crew area. This tried and tested Southern Wind layout is a hard one to better for big yachts. It separates the lion’s share of owner and guest accommodation forward, while giving full separate access to the working areas.

Meanwhile, from the shallow, beamy guest cockpit, with its split tables, it’s a gently angled descent into the tranquil raised saloon. An extra wide, sliding curved companionway hatch pours light into this area, which is split between dining to one side and sofas to the other.

The light Nauta styling is punctuated by Mallorcan-style blue and white upholstery. The interior design is based on simplicity. “Show, don’t hide, was the key,” says Nauta’s Massimo Gino. “Furnishings, suspended from the yacht’s structural elements, let us showcase the shape of the yacht and bring out some of the elements of her construction.”

As well as creating good views through the hull and coachroof ports, the raised saloon format buys the space to house the engine and machinery room below. On a lower level forward is a snug area with day bed, facing a central longitudinal bulkhead and huge flatscreen TV where the optional lift keel would be concealed.

One of the guest twin cabins

Guest accommodation is in a double ensuite cabin forward of the saloon and identical twin cabins, before the crew area, with all cabins having an inviting feeling of space and light.

A hallway into the forward owner’s suite provides space for a generous allocation of stowage. Moving into the tastefully furnished cabin, with low central walkaround berth (with leecloth fixings), it again feels welcoming and light thanks to a large hatch and portlights, light upholstery and trim. After a hot day’s sailing, it felt decidedly calming and comfortable below decks.

Moving aft from the twin cabins, a sliding door can close off the galley and crew area. The skipper has, quite sensibly, allocated himself a comparatively large double ensuite cabin (considering the two other bunk cabins share a heads), while all crew berths can be canted to suit the heel angle.

Skipper Pasco talks Toby through the engine room systems

Showing me around the engine room, Pasco explained how he insisted on having a workbench area and tool stowage in the control room – in an area that, surprisingly, has less room than the SW96.

The beam in the engine room at this length makes up for that a little, with plenty of volume and access around the engines and gensets.

Both the insulation and the attention to ventilation are noteworthy. Numerous air intakes on deck allow air to enter passively through watertraps, which, together with a constant extraction of air, results in a healthy circulation without using too much power.

The shipyard has worked with Dutch specialist Van Cappellen for the last few years to ensure rigorous levels of sound insulation.

For example, according to Micheli, there is 800kg of fire and sound insulation in the engine room alone, a mix of mineral wool and aluminium cladding with melamine foam, covered with a plywood, cork and rubber laminate.

Different materials are used for different applications and frequencies. “The key is not to protect the user from the source but to isolate the source,” says Micheli.

The owner’s suite

Performance and comfort

The consistent theme is the yard’s methodology of using the right amount of material to boost performance without sacrificing comfort. Matching that to the needs of each owner is, for Micheli, the thing that defines Southern Wind: “We like to bring our opinions to the table, which can make things more challenging, but works for a more practical boat in the long run.”

So although it does build custom boats, the company’s focus on semi-custom small series has created a winning recipe for refined yachts with less lead-time. And the ability to enjoy engaging, fast sailing with only a small crew is invaluable – in Kiboko ’s case it allows her owner to take his 100-footer daysailing easily from Palma.

This isn’t simply glamour superyachting. Take the helm of a yacht like this and you quickly appreciate it is designed and engineered for sailors who want the best experience.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 cast: Meet Captain Glenn's new and returning crew members

Captain Glenn Shephard will be back on the small screen soon for Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5.

After a delay and a slew of fan speculation, Season 5 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht finally received a premiere date and a trailer.

As Monsters and Critics previously reported, the hit sailing show returns in less than a month with many newbies to bring the drama.

However, in true Below Deck fashion, a couple of alums make up Captain Glenn’s latest crew, but a fan favorite is missing.

Colin MacRae isn’t returning as Chief Engineer after a turbulent Season 4 that fractured his friendships with Gary King and Daisy Kellier.

The three helped revamp the sailing show after a lackluster Season 1, making it a hit along with Captain Glenn. Colin will undoubtedly be missed.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht stars Daisy Kelliher and Gary King are back

Two people needing no introduction are Gary and Daisy, who are each back for their fourth season on Below Deck Sailing Yacht.

Last summer, photos of Gary and Daisy filming Season 5 were leaked; honestly, we weren’t surprised to see them in the mix. Despite their friction, which amps up for Season 5, Daisy and Gary make good television.

Gary was featured much less in the trailer than in previous seasons, and that likely has to do with the sexual misconduct allegations that came out after Season 5 was filmed. Recently, Gary shared an update about his accuser as he continues to proclaim his innocence.

Who are Captain Glenn Shephard’s new Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 crew members?

Chef Cloyce Martin takes over the galley, and at 22, his age will play a huge factor in the season. We already see him clash with Daisy in the trailer.

Davide Morosi takes over Colin’s chief engineer role, and he seems to be pretty private, with little to no activity on social media.

Stew Diana Cruz declares herself “an organized mess” who has caught the acting and yachting bug.

Danni Warren rounds out the interior crew. She has a connection with Below Deck Med’s Bri Muller and seems to want to be in the social media influencer game, too.

Deckhand Keith Allen catches Daisy’s eye on Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5. Keith isn’t just a sailing yachtie but a photographer and diver who loves to travel.

Emma Crouch makes up the rest of Gary’s deck team. She’s all about being a yachtie, including helping others get into the business as a trainer with Paper Boat Yachting Academy.

That’s a brief preview of the Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 cast. Fans will have to turn in to find out more about Captain Glenn’s crew, especially to learn how Daisy and Gary work together after their Season 4 fallout.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 premieres on Monday, October 7 at 9/8c on Bravo. Seasons 1-4 are streaming on Peacock.

Captain Glenn, Daisy Kelliher & Gary King Are Going To Ibiza For ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ Season 5

‘Below Deck Med’s Chef Johnathan Shillingford Thinks Aesha Scott Handled Those Rude Charter Guests “Very Well”

‘below deck’s 8 worst guests of all-time: from jill zarin to delores the midnight swimmer, ‘below deck mediterranean’ exclusive clip: aesha scott stands up for herself against a rude charter guest.

At long last, Below Deck Sailing Yacht returns for its fifth season on October 7. Captain Glenn Shephard , chief stew Daisy Kelliher , and first mate Gary King are leading the Parsifal III into unchartered waters this season: Ibiza. While fans will miss OG cast member Colin MacRae—whose romance with Kelliher ended very, very badly—there is a new crew of yachties to obsess over this season. Chief engineer Davide Morosi, chef Cloyce Martin, deckhands Keith Allen and Emma Crouch, and stews Diana Cruz and Danni Warren will no doubt be stirring up trouble as they work hard during charters and party hard on their nights off.

The trailer begins on a sad note. Now single, Kelliher returns to the Parsifal III. “Going into this season, I got rid of some dead weight,” Kellier says via voiceover as footage of MacRae and Kelliher canoodling flashes on the screen. “The breakup did a number on me last year, but now, I’m coming back more focused, full of energy.” As she sits triumphantly in her confessional seat, Kelliher says firmly to camera: “I’m fucking good at my job, and I’m taking back the reins.” On cue, the very next scene is Kelliher yelling at King while he lies in his bunk. “I’m not fucking carrying this season on my own, you fucking prick!” The more things change, the more they stay the same.

The trailer then continues to show off its new setting: Ibiza. “Ibiza is known as being the party capital of the world,” says Captain Glenn via voiceover. As guests are shown enjoying themselves, the yacht heels, causing random objects to shatter. Later, the crew gathers for their first meeting. “This is the last time we’ll all be friends so enjoy it,” Kelliher tells the team. “We”ll either fuck each other or fight each other.” “Or both,” replies Captain Glenn cheekily.

A montage of chaos ensues as Kelliher spills a drink, guests boink their heads, and Martin sets off a fire alarm while trying to achieve a fancy, flaming presentation. Morosi is even shown fully nude trying drunkenly to climb into the bed above Captain Glenn’s in their shared cabin. “You all right?” asks Captain Glenn warily. “Nearly,” says Morosi shakily.

While several hookups between the crew are shown—including Kelliher and Martin—and people are shown doing their jobs poorly, the most dramatic part of the trailer involves Captain Glenn’s reading the crew the riot act after giving them permission to party with some guests during a charter. “I set some ground rules, two drinks maximum,” says Captain Glenn as he scolds the crew. “You knew the rules, you broke the fucking rules, and now you’re here getting upset.” Stunned, the group can only look on.

As the trailer ends on a dramatic scene when another yacht is about to crash into the Parsifal III. Below Deck Sailing Yacht fans are left to wonder: could this be the most dramatic season yet? Tune in to Bravo on Monday, October 7 at 9/8c to find out!

Luxury Rules at the Moscow Yacht Show

The windy Russian autumn weather might be a little bit tricky for sailing, but it doesn’t stop brave yachtsmen from all over the world from flocking to Russian capital in the beginning of September when the Moscow Yacht Show commences. The main Russian Yacht exhibition gathers professional and amateur yacht lovers together under the wing of The Royal Yacht Club.

This year it took place for a fourth time already. The exhibition is considered the principal event on the sporting and social calendar. The Moscow Yacht Show 2010 united in one area three of the largest Russian yachts distributors: Ultramarine, Nordmarine and Premium Yachts.

A wide range of yachts were on display for a week. An exhibition showcased yachts both from Russian manufacturers and world famous brands: Azimut, Princess, Ferretti, Pershing, Riviera, Doral, Linssen, etc.

It was a real feast for seafarers as visitors of the show had a unique chance not only to take a look at the newest superyachts before they hit the market, but also to evaluate their driving advantages during the test drive. The show provided an excellent opportunity for yacht enthusiasts to choose and buy a new boat for the next season.

The event started with the grandiose gala evening. It included grand dinner, the concert and professional awards ceremony for achievements in Russian yachting industry. The guests also enjoyed the annual regatta.

Special guest Paolo Vitelli, Azimut Benetti Group president, opened the evening.

Next year organizers assured guests they would bring more yachts, the scale of which will even make oligarch Roman Abramovich envious. Sounds very promising indeed.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5’s trailer has finally arrived, and with Captain Glenn Shephard’s crew including First Officer Gary King, fans are disappointed in the show’s return . While Below Deck viewers have been impatiently awaiting news about Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 for over a year, the trailer has finally been released, and has many concerned about what the season is going to look like. While the trailer reveals the return of some familiar faces, the storylines that appear to be part of the season left viewers feeling uneasy. After Gary’s sexual misconduct allegations, his involvement seems overwhelming.

In the Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 trailer, the crew’s chartering guests around Ibiza in a new sailing adventure. With Gary showing up early in the trailer after Daisy Kelliher makes her grand entrance, things get dicey quickly. “That’s right, we have a f****** job and I’m not carrying this f****** season on my own you f****** prick,” Daisy shouts at Gary in one moment of the trailer as he lays in his bed, looking dismayed. The rest of the trailer shows the genuine chaos of the season, featuring Gary heavily much to the surprise of Below Deck viewers .

What Gary’s Involvement In Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 Means

He’s part of the show more than ever.

Throughout the Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 trailer, it was clear that Gary will be a focal point of the exterior team’s story. Being shown on the deck with some of the exterior team, pushing Deckhands to their limits and critiquing their work, Gary’s presence on the sailing yacht may be odd during Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 . While he appears to be getting along with Daisy , he may not even have her in his corner by the end of the charter season. His heavy involvement in the trailer may not indicate the same throughout the whole season.

20 Best Reality TV Shows Right Now

Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

Although Gary has been a part of Below Deck Sailing Yacht since the early days of the series, seeing him as a member of the crew after his sexual misconduct allegations came to light is tough. While Bravo filmed Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 before the allegations were revealed, they came to light during the filming of the season and it appears that the network didn’t choose to remove Gary from later episodes or take action at all. Though it remains to be seen if production did anything about Gary , it’s disappointing to some to see him on screen.

Our Take On The Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 Trailer

It could be chaotic fun, but gary leaves a stain on the show.

Although the trailer for Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 makes it seem like one of the most exciting, dramatic seasons of the series we’ve ever seen, the mess may not be worth it if Gary’s involved. By ignoring the sexual misconduct allegations lodged against Gary and leaving him on the series, seemingly without explanation, Bravo is allowing it to seem like what he may have done is okay. Though nothing has been proven, taking no action on Below Deck Sailing Yacht could be a misstep that may taint the entire season of the sailing spin-off for once excited viewers.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht premieres Monday, October 7 at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo.

The 5th edition of the International exhibition of yachts and boats –  Moscow Boat Show , held from March 20 to 25, 2012 will be hosted by the first pavilion of Crocus Expo International Exhibition Centre. This popular show is dedicated not only to the specialists of the market segment and professional sportsmen but also to those who consider sailing sport to be their hobby and well cherished dream.

The project is the result of joint efforts of the Crocus Expo International Exhibition Centre and the National Marine Industry Association. The event is supported by Aston Martin Moscow, Burevestnik Group logistics department and the Yachting specialized magazine. Moscow Boat Show is the largest project in Russia presenting all the best in the world of yachting.

The exhibition annually shows high level of attendance and has already proved as significant and noteworthy event in the world of yachts and boats. Every year new exhibitors join the list of participants, genuine “sharks” of yachting business, the quantity of visitors considerably increases and the exposition becomes more sated and diverse.

The best companies professionally involved into yachting and small navigation business – 180 exhibitors from 17 regions of the Russian Federation and 15 countries traditionally presented the best and the newest in the world of yachting at 2011 edition: from design and facilitation of vessels and up to cruising and training courses for beginning skippers. In 2011 the overall exhibit space comprised 18 000 sq m. More than 25 000 visitors came to the show.

This year the exposition space will increase up to 30 000 sq m and will be accommodated in 4 exhibition halls. The scale of the project confirms confident positions of its positive development. The organizers will try to arrange a genuine fiesta of water on land!

Quite a number of foreign exhibitors will participate in the show. Foreign companies show increasing interest to yachting business in Russia.

Moscow Boat Show provides the perfect platform from which to preview new products, evaluate market trends, and establish long-lasting and commercially profitable partnerships. Despite the dynamic changes taking place in Russia and the rapid growth of the yachting sector, the show continues to complement and reflect the industry’s demand and is a promotional opportunity not to be missed!

As its popularity and success rate has grown over the last years Moscow Boat Show 2012 has developed to incorporate more than just an exhibition. These special events serve to attract leading exhibitors and visitors and allow all participants the chance to broaden their knowledge and of course their sales potential.

Moscow Boat Show helps representatives of yachting business to get acquainted with their Russian colleagues and gradually improves national yachting market to a new level. It is obvious that for 4 years of its running the project has turned to a status event of the international exhibitions calendar. The organizers of the exhibition aim to bring together on the same platform all key national and worldwide players and to offer an excellent platform to encourage networking among specialists and visitors in order to accelerate the development in this field as well as implementing new technologies, the newest equipment, materials and components.

The Below Deck universe is one of the popular franchises on Bravo. Fans have been clamoring for the trailer for Below Deck Sailing Yacht following the major breakdown of Daisy Kelliher and Gary King ‘s short-lived romance last season. Now, it’s finally here, and the trailer teases everything viewers want — drama, romance, and breaking the rules with the guests.

As fans of Below Deck Sailing Yacht know, each season of the show takes place in a different location. Now in its fifth season, the show is set in Ibiza. Season four of the show was set in Italy. This new season comes after Gary was accused of sexual assault. 

The new season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht seems like a good time based on the trailer, which comes exclusively from E! News . As it begins, Daisy can be heard saying, “Going into this season, I got rid of some dead weight. The breakup did a number on me last year. I felt very broken. But now, I’m coming back in more focused, full of energy and I’m f–king good at my job. And I’m taking back the reigns.”

Of course, she is referencing her breakup with Gary. She then counters the previous statement by saying, “It’s gonna be a s–t show.”

The trailer then teases a bit of work-related drama as she says to Gary, “Guess what? We have a f–king job to do, and I’m not f–king carrying this season on my own, you f–king prick!”

Naturally, the season isn’t only about the failed romance between Daisy and Gary. The trailer also shows the crew getting a bit too friendly with the guests. Captain Glenn Shephard , who is clearly upset, can be seen reprimanding the crew after having too many drinks with the guests. 

He says, “You guys went out with some guests, I set some ground rules. Two drinks maximum. You knew the rules, you broke the f–king rules, and now you’re here getting upset.”

This season also welcomes some new faces. There’s Chef Cloyce Martin , Chief Engineer Davide Morosi , Stew Diana Cruz , Stew Danni Warren , and Emma Crouch as the deckhand. 

Fans can watch the premiere of season five of Below Deck Sailing Yacht on October 7.
