Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3 - Here's What We Can Tell Fans So Far
The latest season of "Below Deck Sailing Yacht" may have recently ended in June, but fans already can't wait for another season of the "Below Deck" spin-off to set sail. The hit Bravo show follows the professional and personal lives of the crew working on a luxury yacht as they deal with difficult guests and sail exotic waters.
The reality series is relatively new to Bravo, having premiered in February 2020. Season 1 took place in Greece with a crew led by Captain Glenn Shephard. Season 2 added some new faces to the group and sailed through Spain instead.
"Below Deck Sailing Yacht" last left fans with a pretty dramatic Season 2 reunion on June 21 and June 22, according to Us Weekly. During those episodes, the crew not only looked back at what went down the previous season but also answered some pretty intense questions, including ones about the paternity of crew member Dani Soares' baby, which was speculated to be co-star Jean-Luc Cerza Lanaux. First mate Gary King was also called out for his treatment of women, as well as his complicated relationship with castmate Alli Dore. With all this drama from just Season 2 of the show, it makes sense why fans wouldn't want to wait to see what else will go down on the yacht during Season 3! So how long will they have to wait to watch the next season on TV?
When will Season 3 premiere?
While Season 2 of "Below Deck Sailing Yacht" may have just ended in June, fans are already eager for a new season of the "Below Deck" spinoff. Bravo has yet to confirm that there will be another season of the reality series so there's no official release date for Season 3, nor much word on if production is underway. In past season however, filming has always taken place during the summer months, so that could be happening right now — somewhere out at sea in a foreign country.
Another good sign that Season 3 will happen came from Colin Macy-O'Toole from "Below Deck Mediterranean," who now apparently has a job behind-the-scenes. He told Showbiz Cheat Sheet, "I did the casting for some of the other 'Below Decks.' They asked me to help out, so yeah, I've been a casting producer for 'Below Deck Down Under' and I started '[Below Deck] Sailing [Yacht]' for next season." If there's casting happening, then it's pretty safe to assume that Bravo plans on bringing the show back for another season.
And if it's anything like past seasons, fans can expect to watch Season 3 sometime in February or March 2022. The series usually kicks off in the winter and runs until June. For those who still need to catch up, you can watch "Below Deck Sailing Yacht" on Bravo's website or on the streaming services FuboTV, Sling TV, AT&T TV Now, YouTube TV, or Hulu + Live TV.
Who will be in the cast of Season 3?
Season 3 of "Below Deck Sailing Yacht," could see some familiar faces from Season 2 and, of course, some new ones. If Season 3 is anything like last season then the crew would consist of Captain Glenn Shephard, Colin Macrae, Gary King, Natasha De Bourg, Daisy Kelliher, Dani Soares, Alli Dore, and Jean-Luc Cerza Lanaux. Colin Macy-O'Toole, who is working on the casting, teased (via Showbiz Cheat Sheet) that some of those crew members could return for Season 3.
However, Sydney Zaruba has already confirmed that she won't be coming back. She explained on the podcast "Dear Diary, You're Effed", "I would always do [the show] again ... If I do go back, obviously I'm not gonna go back this season I don't think because I already have a job." Others who may not be working on the yacht could be Dani and Alli since Dani just became a new mom, welcoming a baby girl in May, and Alli is currently pregnant.
Yet, fans could see Gary and Natasha return since they were asked by Captain Glenn to continue on the boat's crossing even after Season 2 was filmed. Gary also posted a photo with Captain Glenn on a boat in early June (seen above). As for Colin, he could have extra free time to return since splitting with his girlfriend. But fans will have to wait to see!
