Role: Captain

With over 20 years of experience in the yachting industry, Kerry Titheradge has cruised around various areas in the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and the Pacific Northwest.

Titheradge replaced Captain Lee Rosbach in season 11, but was previously introduced to Below Deck fans on Below Deck Adventure.

He is also the owner and CEO of Yachting Concepts, but when he isn't working on boats, he resides in Palm Beach in Florida with his children.

"The cameras disappear pretty quickly for me, and I’m just doing my job," Titheradge said of working on Below Deck. "We’re showing people aspects of the industry that people don’t know much about, but are very interested in."

With a "firm but fair" captaining approach, Titheradage gives all of his crew respect. He added: "If they take my kindness as a weakness, they’re gone. But if they're having a tough time (mentally), I want to be able to help them. Mental health is very important to me."

Fraser Olender

Age: 32

Role: Chief stew

Hailing from London, Fraser Olender has seven years of experience in the yachting industry.

He got into yachting after being a guest himself, and found that the crew were "so fascinated and in love with what they did", which left him in "awe".

For eagle-eyed reality TV fans, some may recognise Fraser from Made in Chelsea back in the day. During season 11, Fraser was introduced as the best friend of Lucy Watson.

Fraser also speaks fluent French and some of his yachting buddies include the iconic Kate Chastain and Aesha Scott.

Kyle Stillie hails from Selkirk but has recently relocated to Cullen in the Moray Coast of north-east Scotland.

Prior to joining Below Deck in season 11, Kyle only had a year of yachting experience, and not much is known about his life prior to the show. However, he has found himself in a spot of drama after the season 12 trailer suggested he had slept with a charter guest.

"All I'll say is I had a really good charter season," Kyle told E! News. "Stay tuned and see what happens because I think you'll be interested to see what the outcome of that was."

Role: Chef

Hailing from Sheffield in the UK, Lawrence has six years of experience in the yachting industry, and when he isn't on a boat, he spends time with his friends and family as well as renovating houses.

Some of his favourite locations on charter include Corsica and Sardinia, as he told Bravo TV: "It's so beautiful there, and the water's so clean."

And Lawrence also finds himself in the midst of tension in season 12, with a first look at the premiere episode teasing that the chef struggles in the new galley, as he tells the film crew: "Would you just mind not filming while I get this piece of equipment out, please?"

Caio Poltronieri

Role: Stew

Rainbeau has five years experience in yachting and cites that her favourite off-boat activity is "spending way too much money".

Before the show, Solène had 22 days of yachting experience, with St David being her first experience on a charter.
