Bravo's chief stew breaks down how much crews actually make from charter guests on 'Below Deck.' Exclusives from #ETonline : • NEW From Entertainment...
I've now plowed all 10 seasons in just 3 weeks, 2 seasons into Mediterranian. I'm so surprised, I never watch reality shows. Gotta hand it to Kate, she was entertaining to watch.
The first time I looked at this show it was below deck Mediterranean with captain Sandy, so addictive, I especially love the dinner services, keep it up guys!
I adore Kate. She is incredibly beautiful and very humorous. She sets a professional example to all she works with. Keep up the good work darling Kate.
@pawe😂😂 She's very polarising, isn't she? Love or hate. It might be amusing to watch her, but I wouldn't want to be stuck on a yacht (or anywhere else) with her. I find her rude, passive aggressive, condescending, and generally not a pleasant human. Technically, she is excellent at her job, but she plays games and that does not make for a calm atmosphere amongst the crew. loodak1952
You know her and Captain Lee make bank too, because they’ve been around the longest. So not only does Kate get tipped nicely, I’m sure she is also getting paid to be a cast member on a tv show. I’m curious if they get paid by hour or something like that as well or do they just receive tips
@@thenightporter actually they do, I saw an interview once. They do get benefits for like 6 mo or something for working 1 ship for 6 weeks....something like that. Part of why private yachts are expensive for the client, labor is expensive.
Yes, thats why they get $27,000. In a tip, but you only see each one of the 7 crew members get 1,000.ish dollars. They are definitely splitting between many more unseen crew members.
I've noticed the tip, say $25k, is divided by 11.5 to get the amounts given to each crew member during the tip meeting. Don't know why, someone says, "Our tip is $25k, thats $2,180 each." Wonder if a half share goes in the kitty? We are missing some aspect of it, for sure.
@@blond2282 some part of tips stay and accumulate at the end of the charter season. Finally, they decide whether they do, for example, a farewell party or share this or something else.
We all see on the show what the tips are, is it like the land based service industry where you get paid Diddley and have to survive on Tips? Do you get a seasonal salary, Perdiem per charter, hourly rate, etc.? You guys on the show are in a special situation where I’m sure you get something extra for being on the show plus possibly even royalties. Good for you.
Mmala Mokone it depends on the size of the yacht for example a Chief stew on a 70” to 100” vessel can expect $48,000 to $52,000. It continues to increase dictated by vessel size all the way up to say a 190” vessel where it’s between $80,000 and $92,000 as of last year anyway
The first season I watched this show I was fascinated by what the staff has to do in order to provide premium service and make the boat operate. However, very slowly it has all slid into the sewer and it's quite often like Dancing With The Stars. The dance doesn't matter it's how much T and A they can get away with showing. Who is screwing who, how much sexual innuendo, jokes, harassment can we fit in and not get bleeped. Who is sleeping on who or under who and who is going to do a lap dance? It's not so interesting any more. They never show what a captain does except shown in profile looking intently into a piece of computerized equipment, eating with the passengers or saying good job crew for getting us in/out of the slip/docking area. About the only one still of any interest is what the chef does.
yeah.. I think cause it's not meant to be a tutorial so you can get there and say you know the ropes or go on a boat on your own and think you know everything cause you saw it on TV
Okay, last year I worked as a salmon processor in Alaska and did literally work 16 hours a day 7 days a week for many weeks walked away with little I’ve $5K, so yes a tip of $3K is a ‘good tip’ haha
Kate’s explanation is painfully vague. Do the charter owners pay the crew an hourly wage, and is it “sub-minimum” due to being paid tips? Also, is the final tip based on a percentage of the charter cost? How is the tip calculated??
JerseyLoveee last years rate for a chief stew on a 70’ to 100’ vessel was $48,,000 to $52,000. The rate continues to increase dictated by the size of the vessel up to a 190’ where the you can expect anything between $82,000 to $90,000. The tip is often bigger the bigger the yacht too to be fair. The tips you see on Below Deck are low in comparison to the real world because these people who hire the boat have already had the fee reduced down to $100,000 and most of them appear to reduce the tip also despite the crew doing exactly what the would ordinarily be doing.
How come nobody brought up the fact that Ashton grabbing and touching was unwarranted. Or the fact that he just totally grabbed Kate and started to kiss her without her approval. Where is the line of sexual assualt and harrassment?
devils fav saying, peeps thinking they making "good money". getting "paid" in i,o,u's can not be good or otherwise. a debt does not pay a debt. wake up
yep me it’s expected I’m afraid it’s always been the way when you’re dealing with people who have millions floating around! Don’t forget a 3 night charter on below deck is discounted down to $100,000 they’ve already saved a huge amount
the show is a total sham, the ACTORS do NOTHING the ppl doing the work never get on TV. Capt Lee or Capt Sandy never do shit on the boat, other ppl navigate and dock it. neither one of them could steer a jon boat under a bridge.
The immaturity level when you guys drink is epic. When are you gonna step back and see how lame some of you act when you drink? You all seem like nice people but you need to learn how to handle your booze. Maybe you should only drink light beer? Or nothing.
I'm curious if they also have ship tips for anime fans. You know, if you've been watching any chinese cartoons recently, you'd know that there's lots of ships. I find this odd, cause I could watch a show like Nichijou, and fans will rave about all the ships in the water, but I only remember one scene where a girl swims in the water. Whereas, there are gondolas everywhere in Aria the Animation, but not much talk about ships. I really don't know what these zoomers are talking about anymore. Could you please teach them the true maritime significance of travel by ship thanks. -Sincerely, A soccer mom at heart.
At first I thought the show sounded boring, after watching one episode, I continued to watch 3 more seasons. It’s actually so entertaining!!!
I thought same. I took years to finally watch an episode. Now I’m hooked! I judged wrong
I've now plowed all 10 seasons in just 3 weeks, 2 seasons into Mediterranian. I'm so surprised, I never watch reality shows. Gotta hand it to Kate, she was entertaining to watch.
Me too. I had no interest in the show until I watched season 01 episode 01. I was hooked.
How does the chief engineer, engineer and first mate get paid. Are their tips included bur the show just doesn't show it?
The first time I looked at this show it was below deck Mediterranean with captain Sandy, so addictive, I especially love the dinner services, keep it up guys!
I adore Kate. She is incredibly beautiful and very humorous. She sets a professional example to all she works with. Keep up the good work darling Kate.
I would love to work with Kate!!
I would fire her after the first season.
@pawe😂😂 She's very polarising, isn't she? Love or hate. It might be amusing to watch her, but I wouldn't want to be stuck on a yacht (or anywhere else) with her. I find her rude, passive aggressive, condescending, and generally not a pleasant human. Technically, she is excellent at her job, but she plays games and that does not make for a calm atmosphere amongst the crew. loodak1952
😂😂😂
I always will have Kate's back. Please DO NOT leave
Man I love this show! Almost made me think about doing yachting for atleast 1 year just to try it out. :D
You know her and Captain Lee make bank too, because they’ve been around the longest. So not only does Kate get tipped nicely, I’m sure she is also getting paid to be a cast member on a tv show. I’m curious if they get paid by hour or something like that as well or do they just receive tips
They do get paid hourly.
💕Hannah and Kate will be missed, they were hilarious.
Kate is hilarious, but I can't stand Hannah. Don't find her funny.
I'm surprised criminals don't follow the ships around since every charter group has a brick of cash on them for tips
$2000-$2500 tip is not what the crew on the show usually gets.
Please enable the #caption button for this video (and all videos, for that matter)
Best chief stew, kate rocks
Lmfao she's an evil witch are you kidding me? She is the definition of a narcissist.
They also work 16 hour days, hourly its not that much.
It comes out to about US $38 per hour, but they probably don't get health insurance or anything like that.
@@thenightporter actually they do, I saw an interview once. They do get benefits for like 6 mo or something for working 1 ship for 6 weeks....something like that. Part of why private yachts are expensive for the client, labor is expensive.
Did not answer my questions. Are the unseen 1st officer and Engineer included in the tip? Is the Captain?
Yes. The tip is shared equally between each crew member.
Yes, thats why they get $27,000. In a tip, but you only see each one of the 7 crew members get 1,000.ish dollars. They are definitely splitting between many more unseen crew members.

@@blond2282 some part of tips stay and accumulate at the end of the charter season. Finally, they decide whether they do, for example, a farewell party or share this or something else.
My question is, why split the tips evenly when it's almost guaranteed everyone did not do the same work, thus dont deserve the same in tips?
@@noname-tj3rp how do i get this job
It’s the same with a restaurant they split it evenly to avoid arguments lol
I want to know how all the guests get all that cash down to wherever without having it seized at the airport.
Must’ve had A dentist appointment that morning.
Lip fillers 😂
She talks like she has lock-jaw...
Trevor her tongue is totally numb
no botox she can't even speak properly because of botox and lip fillers!
hearing her talk about yachting was making me consider doing it! but then i remembered i get seasick so it’s a no for me
Kate is my favorite.
I love kate! Her comebacks are epic, but i wish she was more bubbley and friendly. How does anyone pay rent in new york with those tips only?
The crew members also get base pay. It's base pay plus tips.
Where do they keep all their tip money? Banking? Cabin? Safe? All tax free???
tips are tax free!
@@klt5756 You're supposed to report your tips.
@Jeff Keeth I reported mine when I was a server. Tips are supposed to be reported, but I can't speak for anyone else and what they do. 🤷♀️
We all see on the show what the tips are, is it like the land based service industry where you get paid Diddley and have to survive on Tips? Do you get a seasonal salary, Perdiem per charter, hourly rate, etc.? You guys on the show are in a special situation where I’m sure you get something extra for being on the show plus possibly even royalties. Good for you.
are the engineers and the captain included on the tip? because the math never adds up lmao
The tip is normally split between everyone included on the charter.
Yes I’ve noticed that as well
Does she sound weird or just me?
It looks like she had her lips done. It seems to be affecting her speech.
Totally superficial person...out of touch w/themself....
yes! botox she can't even speak properly because of botox and lip filler
What's the salary per charter?
@Jeff Keeth l
Mmala Mokone it depends on the size of the yacht for example a Chief stew on a 70” to 100” vessel can expect $48,000 to $52,000. It continues to increase dictated by vessel size all the way up to say a 190” vessel where it’s between $80,000 and $92,000 as of last year anyway
I love how she got arrested in Florida for choking her girlfriend. So hot.
Gf??
Lol 😆
Charges were dropped.
I call BS. Who walks around the caribean with 20k in cash ?
These people are so ungrateful. A tip?? WTF?? We don't tip doctors. You guys get paid.
that question about the lineup.. I literally facepalmed 😂 they line up to greet the guest not for the tip.. what the hecc dude
The first season I watched this show I was fascinated by what the staff has to do in order to provide premium service and make the boat operate. However, very slowly it has all slid into the sewer and it's quite often like Dancing With The Stars. The dance doesn't matter it's how much T and A they can get away with showing.

Don't forget, every episode has at least one shot of a bathroom door and the sound of vomiting. It is so stupid. 😠
Title was totally miss leading.
Oh please… $5000 tip for one week worth of waitressing which is what they’re doing, is ridiculous.
Thank you these people spoiled brats
Okay, last year I worked as a salmon processor in Alaska and did literally work 16 hours a day 7 days a week for many weeks walked away with little I’ve $5K, so yes a tip of $3K is a ‘good tip’ haha
Ouch Why?
I’m never impressed with the boring meals and mediocre service .... the crew personalities are what make the show interesting
I wonder what kinda of meals your eating on your yacht then if the crews personalities all you give credit for? :D
Kate’s explanation is painfully vague.
Do the charter owners pay the crew an hourly wage, and is it “sub-minimum” due to being paid tips?
Also, is the final tip based on a percentage of the charter cost?
How is the tip calculated??
Well of course they get a check from just being on the show too
About 2500 a month as entry position. Excluded tips. The higher the rank the higher pay.
I can’t believe guests carry around envelopes full of cash.
so do crew members get $5000 per week PLUS tips?
Enough money to pay for duck lips?
What about the other guys that I don’t see but are there, like Chief Engineer? Do they get tip money or are they paid from by the yacht owner?
I wondered the same. But I think they are paid a straight wage with no tip. Because they do not provide any hospitality service like the rest do.
I always liked her. She's a crowd pleaser. Knows her stuff
Do they have an hourly salary too?
JerseyLoveee they are not hourly employees. They have a salary plus tips. The salary is also pretty high.
JerseyLoveee last years rate for a chief stew on a 70’ to 100’ vessel was $48,,000 to $52,000. The rate continues to increase dictated by the size of the vessel up to a 190’ where the you can expect anything between $82,000 to $90,000. The tip is often bigger the bigger the yacht too to be fair. The tips you see on Below Deck are low in comparison to the real world because these people who hire the boat have already had the fee reduced down to $100,000 and most of them appear to reduce the tip also despite the crew doing exactly what the would ordinarily be doing.
kate need's those tips to keep up with her botox!!!
Natalie Steinhauer Meeeoooow
Lol, it's sad but true tho:)
Agree and she is so mean
Of all the below deck shows, I can't believe I got past season 1 season 1 of all the deckhand shows sucked! They get better though
All hers tips go to her face
That is hilarious and true..she needs some improvements on her whole body.
Her lips .....though? Whyyyyyyyy?
How come nobody brought up the fact that Ashton grabbing and touching was unwarranted. Or the fact that he just totally grabbed Kate and started to kiss her without her approval. Where is the line of sexual assualt and harrassment?
99 percent of the crew are a joke!!!! I've watched every show I'm #proben he's the best chef plain and simple!!!!
Ms snubby
Beautiful buoys you have there Kate...
I am looking for job.help me out
Les cuesta mucho traducir al español la entrevista...?? Es una falta de respeto para los. Latinos...
Getting older
devils fav saying, peeps thinking they making "good money". getting "paid" in i,o,u's can not be good or otherwise. a debt does not pay a debt. wake up
Is she okay in this? Wtf?
she can scare the dog off a greyhound bus,,, ewwwww
I would love to work with Kate as long as she cut me some slack as a newbie.
the boss is not god boss,He is to hard to the staff.😪😪😪
That's crazy overpriced tipping
yep me it’s expected I’m afraid it’s always been the way when you’re dealing with people who have millions floating around! Don’t forget a 3 night charter on below deck is discounted down to $100,000 they’ve already saved a huge amount
the show is a total sham, the ACTORS do NOTHING the ppl doing the work never get on TV. Capt Lee or Capt Sandy never do shit on the boat, other ppl navigate and dock it. neither one of them could steer a jon boat under a bridge.

For god's sake Kate stop doing that ridiculous pouting,it is really cringworthy.
I'm curious if they also have ship tips for anime fans.
