Were you concerned that she may be sociopathic given her remorseless pursuit of Ross in
the face of your commitment to one another? Come on, baby, he
was hitting on me. Yeah. Joining us from parts unknown, although it's
clearwater, Florida, it's not unknown is the great Katie from season ten below
deck? What is up? Hello, guys? How are you doing today?
Well, well, kind of not, because it's no one cares about
people complaining about the weather. Dylan. Imagine you live in Wisconsin or something
horrible place like that, and you were complaining about a little rain out here.
Man. Well, another thing with the rain is that people say,
oh, it's like it's it's it's like people. I'm not going to talk
about the rain anymore, but I am very cold. So joining us today
is Katie. We have been watching you throughout this season. You've been kind
of a bright spot and that you have not feuded with people. You're very
good at your job, and you've been having to bat away and welcome the
advances of one sex crazed Ross. But before we get into any of that,
we have a very boring question to start things off. Well, it's
not me asking this time telling, So how dare you? Sarah Serena Jenkins
wants to know how'd you get on the show? Um, you know,
I think through my social media. I have been freelancing on different boats here
in South Florida, Bahamas, So I think just my social media presence got
you know, the people kind of looking at me and you know, you
see it from Afar and you're like, oh, that would be so cool
to be on that big of a boat, that big of an opportunity.
So yeah, they found me through my social media presence, got it.
How many years have you been in the industry now going on five years?
So okay, do you like it or do you need to stop doing it
for your mental health? I love it? Um, you know, I'm
my You know, my world down here in South Word is very different.
It's you know, the hundred to old like one hundred and thirty footers,
so it's a big you know, it's a really a difference than two hundred
footers that go off for six months at a time. Yeah, I freelance,
so I jump from boats, boats boat different deal with different charter guests,
different owners, so you know, it keeps your mind kind of you
know, it keeps more fun aspect instead of just you know the same people
you know for six year at a time. Right now, have you developed
a contempt for the wealthy yet? You know the wealthy it's very interesting.
You know, the more wealth people have, the more games they play,
and the more you know, this interest this industry is very interesting, you
know, like, yeah, you see it every day with these yacht owners.
You know, they think they can kind of get away with everything.
So you definitely have to keep your minds kind of like you know what it
is you want to do in kind of that direction, because it's very easy
to kind of you know, be shifted because of money, or you meet
someone and you know, well, there's no HR on these folks, right,
there's no HR because you know HR would go Yeah, you'd be screwed
if there's HR in this industry for sure. If you don't mind me jumping
into a couple of listener questions, Dylan speaking of the web is out of
question? Or oh it's a sgui Okay, Christina, because I don't mind,
but I feel like you didn't ask the question and were just moving on.
Okay, Okay, Lquisia fan favorite obviously, Yeah, uh did she
request anything? Over the top from the exterior because she was acting a little
a little rude with the interior anything for you guys, No, I don't
think she really was. You know, we if they're not huge, huge,
huge into the water sports, um, you know, we see them,
then they go back and you know, mostly the interior deals with them.
So I really didn't have like an issue with her. I think,
you know, it's fun in her own personality, but I think the interior
definitely got the brounth of you know, her demand. Now, you guys
took out the Banana boat, a very dangerous vessel. I've been concussed on
that a time or two. Do you know any evil patternings dragging tubes around
and whatnot? Like do you drive the tender and slam people into the water
at fifty miles an hour um? While I have driven, I didn't drive
the tender for our season, but in the past I have driven several tenders.
Growing up, my family was into the lake sports. Yeah, so
tubing. My dad would have thirty second rule and it was go as fast
as you can and get everyone off in thirty seconds. Yeah, yeah,
you know that. You know tubing, I think super fun. Banana I
think you're doomed to begin with, because one person follows the whole thing stepping
over. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. It's a real collective effort.
So have you ever been concussed while tubing? I definitely have our tube
when I was younger. You have to fly, yeah, so you know
you would drop from really high in the air. So yeah, keeping you
know is not the funnest thing. Yeah, I know. It's a lot
of fun until you can't see the reality the way that it's supposed to be
seen. Anyways, Pat go ahead, sure, um hollywood a Watson.
Now that you know, a lot of a lot of cast members, i'd
call you, not workers on the boat, we call them. See well,
you become you know, uh what do you call it? On Instagram?
Verifies you and all that, and you start getting a lot of dms
and opportunities. Do you plan on continuing on in the adding industry after being
on the show, Um, I definitely, I definitely continue to you know,
move forward. Um, I continue to freelance as the first meet on
different vessels. I am now getting into the brokering side of things, and
I still manage yacht, so I definitely am full force and staying in the
adding world and just you know, I think the world, this world,
you can do a lot with um and so you know when you're kind of
kind of stick of one jumped to the other, but kind of keep them
all interchangeable. So I definitely am going to stay in the autumn world for
right now, got it? Cool? Now? Um, I I shouldn't
say this, but you're gonna bring up Ross. Now. I was just
gonna say that Katie's background is just so boring. It's just it's just this
eggshell white well, I mean, it's just horrendously boring. It's like a
Matisse painting. Look how beautiful she looks in front of it. But I'm
distracted by the blandness of the wall. Anyways, let's talk about Ross.
So you, um and Ross were an item. Yes, a boat romance.
I would say that is as far as you would you would put that.
Would you say that you and Ross found love in a hopeless place?
I think we found love on a two boat for the whole season. We
had our fun moments, we had our but that's kind of where you know,
it died out once, you know, once we left. We both
knew that that was in. You know, we weren't going to be an
item after the show, so happened with it and then you know, move
on to our separate lives after this might be one of the things with a
sex addict is they're able to separate their desire to have sex and feelings.
And we weren't calling you, I think, And I think that's one thing
that I hope our dear friend Ross works out in therapy, is uh,
you know, you may not have those feelings, but when you're hooking up
with somebody else, they may develop feelings. And I think that's was kind
of the story that you guys had, was this was more of a hook
up for him, and he wouldn't just say that and for you. I
don't know if he was playing mind games. Was was he telling you things
that we didn't see that would lure you back into him other than his charm
and you guys making out in the back of a tender Yeah, I mean
definitely he would say step and he you know, we would talk, you
know, on different parts of the boat and he, you know, he'd
be like, I'm in this, I want this to work out. Blah
blah blah blah blah, you know, I think Ross was again very confused.
He wants to be able to play the games and have fun, but
then you know, at the end, like he says he wants something serious,
and I think he isn't something serious now, So you don't I don't
know. I think it's it's it's interesting with him because he definitely, you
know, plays the line of wants the floor with everybody, but then once
kind of something serious but doesn't know really how to draw that line. So
yeah, he's kind of confused, and you know, hopefully he figures it
out. How did it feel to be graded on your sexual performance with a
British accent that was slightly robotic and concerning? I mean, I just thought
it was really funny because I just kind of ignored it. I was like,
all right, I'm going to bed, like see a good night.
Well, Holly Wood'll ask I guess we can return the favor. How do
you rate Ross in the sack or the shower? Great question? Great question.
I mean, you know we're both intoxicated. It's you know, in
the shower. I don't you know, I think it's a fun moment,
but I wouldn't say, you know, it was like such a magical moment,
got it? Yeah, So I want to ask you about um Alyssa
because from our advantage and were men, but I think that we still can't
understand m girl code girl code to a certain degree. Were you concerned that
she may be sociopathic given her remorseless pursuit of ross in the face of your
commitment to one another? Come on, baby, he was hitting on me?
Yeah? Yeah, because it grossed us out. It yucked us out,
and I think most of America as well. You know, I think
I think again, when you have alcohol in you, I think it's easier
to be that flirty personality. Because to me, she was a hard worker.
You know she did you know, she did do her job. But
I just think, yeah, she I think she wanted what she wanted and
she was going to go after it, and you know, I think she
little bit played into like, oh, you know, I don't think Katie
and him were serious, but I think she definitely knew what she was doing.
So did it? Did you hate her for it? All? Right?
So let's move on, But before we do, let's take a quick

you're all over the place with all these different credit cards. You got some
here, you got some here, you get a paypall there. It's just
it's a messy deal. It was also free up their wallet. You know,
two walk get up to that twelve dollars tier. We're off right now.
Yeah, you know into the mic. Huh huh. I didn't hate
it for it, now did it bug me? Because it's just like again,
it's against girl code. I wouldn't put up with that. You know
here if a girl did that to me, it's just like you know,
I don't I don't hate her, but I definitely don't appreciate you know,
you know how how she did it. Katie. There was a scene a
few episodes back where you were in the car with her in the backseat and
you, oh my god, he was making the case. Yeah, and
you could clearly see I guess what were you thinking that moment because you weren't
making eye contacts were Yes, I was just like, so An, I
like, I just like, why are you telling me this? Like,
you know, I already know he's a player. I already know he's still
you know, going after you, Like, I just don't want to hear
it anymore. Like, you know, me and ros aren't going to be
anything, you know, past the boat romance on the show. So it's
just like, you know, just quit trying to bring it up. It's
like she constantly wants me to beef with him, and you know, so
she gets her way, and honestly, you know, I just I didn't
want to hear it anymore. Well, Well that so you are saying,
like, so there was a little bit of three D chess there with her,
So she you think that she wanted you guys fighting about what was going
on. I think she definitely wanted us to argue, so then you know
she was easier for her to flirt with ross Win, you know, on
our nights out. So I think you know, if I was upset with
him and I didn't want to deal with him, you know, it was
easier for her, right. Uh you know. Yeah, It's a little
bit like when a komodo dragon bites a calf of a hoofd animal. Just
like that, slowly a talks and swims through them, and they are easier
pray. So I think you're right about that. Um, okay, So
with that, Rob Morgan asked, uh, team Alissa or team Camille.
Yeah, you have to pick a side, yea, Camille. Camille has
been one of my best friends still in Fort Lauderdale, and um, you
know, she's a good girl. I think she just got dealt a tricky
hand. She was, um, she was rather brazen in the face of
accusations of her being apathetic or lazy or incompetent. How was she on the
exterior? Bad? I mean exterior. We didn't get her much because obviously,
you know, Fraser needed an extra hand on the inside. It was
a big boat. He needed her more in the interior, So we really
only got to like deal with her a little bit, you know here and
there docking. But besides that, it wasn't you know, she would come
down and hang out with us, but like I didn't really get to judge
you know, her, like really truly at in the exterior. Got it
A couple more questions for you, Katie, Thanks for doing this all right,
So, do you feel like the show portrays how hard the deck crew
works? I mean, we always see the docking, but like we always
see the interior running around dropping wine glasses, having to deal with the service
part of it. Do you think the show really captures what you guys are
put through working on those vessels. No, honestly, I think that's I
think that's one of the most frustrating parts. Um, it's because you know,
we're working eighteen hour days, we're working hard, and I feel like
it's just there's so much that's left out that you don't get to see us
doing and it's just like snippicks and then it's back to the interior. Yeah,
so I think that definitely was frustrating. You know, seeing it live
is just honestly, you know, most of the stuff we did and like,
you know, different jokes and like different things. We kind of had
the whole season, like you know, just didn't get portrayed because it was
more I feel like a little bit more pinned on the interior, yeah,
than really getting to see, you know, truly the whole day in and
day out of the exterior. Yeah. And you understand why that's not shown
though, right, Well, because we're probably we're a lot of less drama
then. Yeah, because I would jump off a fucking building if I had
to watch a show about you guys killing it on the deck. Well,
okay, all right, A couple other just quick hits here, all right,
Um, Mary f kill Ross Tony ben Great question, and this is
by Brett Reno. You have to fuck one, marry one, and murder
one. You cannot, so I would fuck Ross Mary ben To. Why
would you kill? He's annoying? But he is not? And he's annoying.
Isn't you killed Tony? Is he annoying? I just have like a
really I feel like hard work ethic and when people don't match up to that
necessarily, Um, it's sometimes you know, just a little bit frustrating.
And I feel like towards the end of the season. You know, he
was getting frustrated. You know this, this wasn't the type of gig for
him. Um, he is incredible, and you know his side and what
he did before, but you know, these are long hours and you can't
be complaining the whole time otherwise it just brings everyone down. So he was
a great person I just don't think the Big Boat World was for him.
He is a complainer. He's secretly the biggest complainer on that boat. Really,
I caught that. He annoyed me. I didn't watch that, and
that's so sad to hear because he has such a great kind of jungle hippie
type vibes to him. He definitely does. He definitely does. He has
a great personality. I just once again, I don't think the Big Boat
World was for him, And I think he would tell you that, Yeah,
what about the big boat World is not for people like Tony. He's
a more free spirit. It's just very Yeah, he's free spirit. You
know, he wants to do what he wants to do, work out,
you know, it's on his time. You know this, it's the Big
Boat World is very structured. I mean, you wake up, you work
eighteen hour days. If you don't get a break, I'm sorry you don't
get a break. You know. There's it's just like, you know,
we're all a team, and you do have to put in, you know,
and you have to help different avenues to interior, galle you know,
whatever needs help. And I just think, you know, sometimes he just
was a little confused of you know, that whole structure. Got it?
Okay, a couple more hits here, Okay, So whose style of leadership
do you prefer? Sandy? Early? You have to answer that, you
have to answer the question. I personally really love Captain Sandy. She was
an inspiration just because she's in a male dominated position. I'm in a male
dominated position. Yea. So just seeing her being able to run the boat
as a woman is super empowering. And the fact that she was, you
know, out there, you know, helping us like pull the jet skis
pulled aside, um, she was in there drying dishes with me, you
know it just to me as a woman, like you know, Captain Sandy's
definitely very impactful for me. Yeah, No, she's around a lot.
Now did you, um, were you freaked out and weirded out and uh
concerned? For your safety. When Sandy had that meltdown on the beach,
when you guys were doing that top gun thing, when she came after Frasier
for having a scab a dead fish, I was just very you know that
their problems are between them, and yeah, definitely, you know, it
was definitely shocking because I was like, well, I didn't think that was
gonna happen. But you know, I'm just gonna say no comment on that
because the interiors the interior, and you know, I think they definitely had
some internal issues with that. Do you guys think that you could have not
gone so hard on them in the volleyball game to save the day a little
bit, because if you had won maybe six three, I don't think Sandy
would have flipped out like that, And so I kind of do think it's
your fault comments. I mean, you know, I really stuck a volleyball.
I'm surprised that even got the ball over the net. So, you
know, for me, volleyball is not one of my strong suits. So
I think, you know, I think we're probably pretty evenly matched. But
the boys definitely carried the team on that one. Got Okay, all right,
that's all the questions. I got Katie. You're great. You were
a delight to watch on the show hard Work. Or you also were involved
in a little drama, not because she created. She was dating a sex
addict, you know, but uh, I personally enjoyed your I'd love to
see it back on the show. Come back on the show if you if
you can stomach it, yes, I would love to. If they ask
me back, I'd definitely be down for it. I'll get her back on
and jump in our iTunes reading to your reviews, five stars, kind words,
