Below Deck Med’s Captain Sandy Expresses Disappointment Over Cast Shakeup
Hometown: Port Elizabeth, South Africa
Birthdate: April 22
Zodiac sign: Taurus
Years of experience in the yachting industry: 3
Favorite off-boat activities: “Anything that involves getting in the water, such as snorkeling, scuba diving, tubing, going down slides and jumping off the sun deck.”
Special skills: “I did a course on manicures and pedicures, but never got the certification due to lack of time before yachting again. I can do nails, though.”
What is your wildest charter guest story from your career?
“So many crazy things have happened that crazy stories for other people are just normal day to day occurrences for me. I’d probably end up with a lawsuit if I had to tell you.”
Favorite place you’ve been on charter/place you traveled?
“On charter, my favorite place has been the U.S. Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands. I got to swim with dolphins and snorkel in my free time…a literal dream.”
What’s one thing about working and living on a boat that would surprise people?
“Believe it or not, but land sickness is a thing after spending a lot of time on a yacht. Your world rocks for maybe three days after hopping off the boat.”
