“As a producer, I’m in the control room watching, and I can only see what the cameras are shooting, so I see that moment, I see the rope starting around Ashton’s ankle and then I see him go in the water, and then three seconds later, I see a camera being set down on the deck of the boat. “A million things come to mind,” Cox told The Daily Dish.įor starters, Cox said that he had no idea what was going on at first when Ashton Pienaar went overboard in Season 6. There’s never a shortage of jaw-dropping moments on Below Deck, but asking producers to name just one is quite the challenge. I’m constantly learning from people that do the show, and I’m grateful for that, honestly.” How Production Prepares the Crew for the Charter Season I never assume that I know all there is to know about the world of yachting or what it takes to be a yachtie. “That’s one of the big appeals of the show is I’m always learning something. “There’s always something interesting, there’s always an amazing story or an amazing technique or a shortcut here or there that’s fascinating to the people that are watching the show, fascinating to us, fascinating to the yachties,” he said. “And they’re like, ‘If I go on Below Deck, I will have a tangible, visible thing for my family and friends to understand what my job is.'”īelow Deck has even been “a constant learning experience” for Cox in that regard. “The vast majority of people that do the show, they always say, ‘I want to do the show because I want my friends and family to understand what my job is,'” Cox said. One of the main reasons Below Deck has been able to attract so many people in yachting is because they want to give their loved ones a glimpse into what they do for a living. These are people whose careers depend on this.” “We have people that have worked in yachting for multiple seasons that have experience on big boats and small boats and with celebrity clientele and with very wealthy owners and have been all over the world,” Cox said. Since then, people with all levels of experience have been a part of the Below Deck crew over the years. People didn’t know what Below Deck was," he explained, adding that some yachties didn't know if it would "jeopardize their future employment potential."
“Initially, it was very hard to get yacht crew members to commit to doing the show because it was an unknown entity. We can’t imagine anyone not wanting to be a part of the Below Deck crew these days, but when the Honor’s yachties were being assembled for Season 1 of the show, people were hesitant to climb aboard, according to Cox.

Over the course of watching one episode of Below Deck, there are usually no less than 17 questions that enter our minds: How does one become a crew member (definitely asking for a friend)? Who pays for the charter? How do you even film a whole TV show on a yacht?
