Below Deck Season 10: Meet The Cast

Captain Lee Rosbach, who fans commonly refer to as The Stud of the Sea, is the only cast member to appear in every season of the show. Three series spinoffs and hundreds of yachties later, the good captain has become a major celebrity. With his witty humor and sharp tongue making him a fan favorite, It's hard to imagine the Michigan native was never supposed to be on the show at all. 

"I thought I was heading down to Saint Martin for just a gravy train," he admitted on the "Heart of the Matter" podcast. "Drop the boat off, go check on it every three or four days, get paid double pay, sit on the beach, drink foo-foo drinks for six weeks, bring [his wife] Mary Ann down, and enjoy life." A last-minute need for a captain threw a wrench in Rosbach's plans. Joining the ship, and the Season 1 cast, he cemented his status as a star in the soon-to-be sensation, "Below Deck."

Ten seasons of firing reckless yachties, whipping his deck crews into shape, and guiding his vessels through unpredictable weather and wind have taken their toll on the captain, who turned 73 in November 2022. Viewers got a glimpse into his health struggles during the Season 10 premiere, where he told his crew, "I am a little incapacitated. I have a nerve issue on my left side so I am going to depend on you guys in some areas."
