The pristine waters of Below Deck are looking a bit choppier this week, as crew exhaustion and shifting social connections start to rock the boat. Airing Monday, June 23 at 8 PM ET on Bravo, the Season 12 episode, “Island of Sausages,” finds the yachties deep into a demanding five-day charter, and the strain is beginning to show.
The ongoing pressure leads to friction on deck, with the team’s patience wearing thin when it comes to Caio. These kinds of close-quarters workplace squabbles are par for the course on Below Deck, but the extended charter length means more time for minor annoyances to fester into full-blown frustrations.
Below deck, the social landscape is also redrawing itself. Barbara and Solene find common ground, creating a new pairing that leaves Rainbeau feeling left out. In the insulated world of a superyacht, these kinds of friend-group realignments can be just as dramatic as any guest complaint.
Expect more of the familiar Below Deck mix: demanding guests, the scramble to meet expectations, and the inevitable clash of personalities when people are forced to live and work in such close quarters. The title itself suggests a bit of absurdity, which usually translates to good television.
Below Deck: Island of Sausages airs Monday, June 23, 2025, at 8 PM ET on Bravo.
