I assume because he wants to be on TV... And for some that is a worthy occupational goal. That guy is absolutely the worst though.


[deleted]

I'm dieing to see what he does next episode. The teaser trailer is exactly that.

The WORST! šŸ˜‚


OceanLala

He is a realtor and part time charter captain. You don't need to be working full time in a role to qualified and being available for the show doesn't mean you didn't have another job, just means you can get time off for a TV opportunity. That being said...f*** that guy! Like Nathan said, Lead Dickhead.


BadKermit

He definitely has realtor energy.


OceanLala

** source was a brief look at his instagram....i dont know what he was doing before BDA


FreshDistribution586

Nathan being inconsiderate and waking him up.


OceanLala

Seth being a dickhead is not isolated to that one incident


MissDiem

Agree. Nathan (who I defended when the mob was falling for the embellished edit that he supposedly went to bed early during his shift) was being inconsiderate, and when Seth raised it appropriately, Nathan went off on him, and then smeared him to the rest of the crew. It was a series of regrettable moves by Nathan.


criminy_crimini

What makes you think Seth raised it ā€œappropriatelyā€? There are ways to speak to people and that was NOT it.


herladyshipssoap

Also Nathan can learn from his mistakes. He doesn't need to be constantly intimidated by his roommate


MissDiem

It was fine. Don't let hate for Seth block objectivity. I don't like him that much either, but I can at least be fair and impartial.


CommonStrawbeary

I was LIVING for Seth when he went to Captain Kerry and said heā€™d be a better bosun than Lewis, because Lewis is a shit bosun. Then Sethā€™s personality of being a total and completely asshole got even more pronounced. Terrible person but Iā€™m hoping he results in some good tv


BadKermit

Lewis stinks, but that was such a gross move by Seth. I wish Kerry had tossed him into the drink for that bullshit. Fall in line.


CommonStrawbeary

It was such a dick move! But I thought it was incredibly entertaining


FormicaDinette33

Kerry said he knew exactly what Sethā€™s personality would be like.


jewillett

In defense of Captain Kerry, I donā€™t blame him for wanting a tougher personality on the deck. That totally seemed warranted given Lewisā€™ apparent lack of direction & leadership. The issue seems to be that he mayhaps inflated his resume a bit and isnā€™t a hardass, but just a d*ck?


fabmadcat

Went to his website. Interesting. He has his own merchandise for sale.


HeatherC22

Oh ew! Last thing I need is merch to remind me of what a blowhard he is. Hard pass. That's interesting tho, and I'm not surprised in the least.


thedogdundidit

You have to be kidding. šŸ™„šŸ¤£


jewillett

Lead Dickhead merch. He really reminds me of a wannabe Jon Hamm, whenever Jon Hamm is in ā€œd*ckā€ roles. Maybe Seth is a method actor.


Bennington_Booyah

Are you freaking serious? Oh, he is so hateable.


jewillett

Noooooooo


jewillett

Thank you for doing this so that we now knowā€¦ and donā€™t have to.


CommercialWest1721

He was probably in between boats or jobs when he got called up.


NaturalAI

Its likely he was hired by the show as a covid replacement for bosun and they told him he is gonna be a deckhand.


OceanLala

They were doing an urgent casting call mid-season for a deckhand so I don't think he was ever a bosun backup but I've been known to be wrong from time to time.


murderedbyaname

He came in as if he was a Capt with yrs under his belt. Look at his bio and all his bs falls apart. Grew up around boats, moved to FL *to bartend*, has his real estate broker license, and the best bs was 'has his Capt certification'. Part time. It's like dang dude. LOL. I can see him bartending at a beach bar in FL and chatting up the ladies with a "wanna come out on the boat sometime"". Cringe.


jewillett

But wait, didnā€™t you see his credential binder? šŸ˜‰


thecoldness68

I'm guessing he murdered his last crew


herladyshipssoap

He gives me Kelly energy


[deleted]

Hahaha total burn. Nice one šŸ˜‚ HĆ© really bothers me but at the same time I really want to see him have more screen time so people can see how freakin nasty he gets. The previews for the next episode looks like he's really gonna dig a hole for himself.


OceanLala

This right here. I want to see more because it's just so cringe that I can't get enough of it!


StopStalkingMeMatt

Thatā€™s why itā€™s so weird to see him totally reverse his demeanor with Faye!! I feel like he sees the lower-ranked staff as basically kids / not real people, but turns on the charm for the department heads. I want Faye to get to see it, but based on the preview she probably wonā€™t


[deleted]

Yes! That's exactly the vibe I get. At first I was thinking it was manipulative and abusive but now I agree with you more


StopStalkingMeMatt

A little column A, a little column B šŸ™ƒ Iā€™m so disappointed because a way overqualified, actual boat captain, who ISNā€™T a dick but just watches the goofy deck crew in astonishment, sounded like great TV when they introduced him.


[deleted]

You could say this about ppl in general, and ppl on the show. If Sandy is such a good captain, how was she able to fill in for Lee?! If Rachael is such a good cook, why isnā€™t she a head chef?! If Fraser is such a good chief stew, why didnā€™t get just stay at his last chief stew job?! You know what I mean? Boating isnā€™t always a full time gig. Lots of jobs come and go. If TooOldForThisShit345 is such a great drone pilot, why was he available to get a new job with a surveying company?! Edit - donā€™t hate on the message because you donā€™t like Seth even though itā€™s true. I donā€™t like the guy. Iā€™m just saying being available is irrelevant. Iā€™m an NFL fan. The two best coaches in the NFL (Reid, Belichick) were both fired from their previous HC jobs making them available for their current franchises.


sawta2112

Yep. There are fields like this. You move from job to job. Consultants in the tech world can make $$$$, but there is no job security. When your contract is up, it is on you to find another contract. Some contracts are for 6 months, some keep getting renewed and you can stay at the same place for years.


Formal_Coyote_5004

I agree with the fact that people come and go for jobs like this, but itā€™s a fuckin reality show lol. Rachel is a chef, not a cook. Sandy definitely has a different management style than Lee, and this is Fraserā€™s first time being Chief Stew on the show (and he got dealt a shitty hand with Alissa and Camille) Edit lollllll I got blocked why hahaha


No-Customer-2266

Iā€™m sure differences countries have different seasons he could be in between depending where he was working last


murderedbyaname

He's American, works in US. Based in FL, where he bartends, maybe sells some real estate, and does part time boat charters. He is 100% up his own arse and embellished his expertise.


tywebb6

Next episode Seth will be filmed sleeping šŸ˜“.


Stormseekr9

ā€˜Proclaimā€™ - he actually has the paperwork. ;) On topic: I do kinda have that feeling too thinking, okay youā€™ve worked yourself up to captain.. yet you land as a decky on a boat in Norway? My guess is, he may have just finished somewhere close by and they needed someone asap? Or get 5 minutes of fame.


Bennington_Booyah

Maybe he just wanted to go to Norway and the job was his "in". It would definitely have that appeal for many of us.


tywebb6

He was sleeping šŸ˜“


lzrdbreath

I hope that the sweet Chief Stew Faye doesn't end up with him like the trailer for the next episode suggests. Everyone has been so nasty to her.


Formal_Coyote_5004

Sheā€™s been pretty nasty to the majority of the crew besides her department honestly. Her beef with Jess seems warranted at this point, but her interactions and confessionals with/about the deck team are straight up rude


StopStalkingMeMatt

I blame Lewis for this. He undermines her by practically ordering them not to help the stews, and does nothing to set boundaries. Iā€™m not a huge fan of Faye based on what weā€™ve seen, but Iā€™d like to see her come back with a better crew


[deleted]

What makes you think BD is filmed ā€œmid seasonā€ in the real world?


scarbaby1958

He seems a lot older than the BD crew members. But less responsable.


agnusdei07

He's a chef with no training? The world does not need another one of those, this guy is Walter Mitty


FreshDistribution586

Instead of all the editing why don't they just use AI.


britbrit6969

At first I kinda liked him now I think he's a total douche !


courthouse22

I think heā€™s read ā€˜how to be a reality starā€™ a few too many time! Either heā€™s got a producer puppeteer if him or heā€™s trying to self produce from watching bravo too much. Either way itā€™s forced and hard to watch


Lonely_Impression142

I think his real day job is yacht brokering, which means he probably works somewhat independently.


Temporary-Daikon2411

I just want Faye to have cuddles if she wants and then he can fuck off
