Below Deck star Captain Lee Rosbach is feuding with Captain Sandy Yawn. At the start of the season, he said he was grateful to the Below Deck Mediterranean star for filling in for him during his health issues. Now, Captain Lee is expressing his distaste for the way she’s handled the crew. Keep on reading for more.

Captain Lee Rosbach feuding with Captain Sandy

Captain Lee Rosbach has been a part of Below Deck since it premiered in 2013. Over the past few years, he struggled with health issues. Captain Sandy Yawn temporarily replaced him during Season 10. Back in December 2022, Captain Lee expressed his gratitude toward her in an interview with People.

“She really did me a solid. I’m grateful she was there,” Captain Lee Rosbach said. “That’s a very difficult situation that I put her in. You’re taking over somebody else’s boat and somebody else’s crew.”

He admits that it wasn’t easy for her. Captain Sandy replaced Captain Mark Howard on Below Deck Mediterranean. Below Deck fans got a feel for her leadership style during the original series. It was the first time that a captain crossed over to another show.

In her confessional, Captain Sandy admits that “it’s never easy taking over for another Captain.” Her goal was to make Captain Lee Rosbach feel “supported.” She promised that she would look out for the St. David crew. However, Captain Lee had issues with the way she ran the boat.

Both of them have been feuding for the past few weeks. Captain Lee Rosbach was in shock over Camille Lamb’s firing. He claims that Captain Sandy didn’t inform him that Camille was let go, and didn’t like how it played out on television.

“Why contact me after and tell me at all? “Captain Lee Rosbach told Us Weekly. “Plenty of time to call me after, but not before. She made the right call. But lacked in procedure and respect. Just the way I roll.”

New Below Deck feud

Captain Sandy Yawn has been in her share of feuds. She previously feuded with former chief stew Hannah Ferrier, who she fired on Season 5 of Below Deck Med. Now, she found herself in a new feud with Captain Lee Rosbach. In her interview on SiriusXM’s Reality Checked, she didn’t want to bring it up to him because he was recovering.

“He’s in the hospital. Who’s gonna call and say, ‘Can I fire Camille?’ Never in a million years would I do that,” Captain Sandy explained. “But what I did was give him a courtesy call saying, ‘By the way, I did fire her. You almost had a mutiny on your boat because of her.’”

Captain Sandy didn’t want to bother Captain Lee Rosbach while he was recovering from surgery. She admits that she reached out to him, but he never returned her calls. Sadly, the two won’t be able to hash things over on the Below Deck Season 10 since Bravo canceled it for unknown reasons.
