Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 3 recently had primary charter guest Erica Rose back and she got slammed for being the worst charter guest in Below Deck history. Fans may remember Erica from Sailing Yacht season 2 when she came with her mother, Cindi Rose, and a group of girlfriends. What was supposed to be a trip about uplifting women quickly turned into a catty war. The guests started fighting with one another, making for a very tense charter. To top it off, the high-maintenance women gave the BDSY stews additional work by making them unpack all their clothes and give them massages.
Much to the horror of the BDSY season 3 crew, Captain Glenn Shephard informed them that Erica was returning as a primary charter guest. This time, however, instead of making it an all-girls trip on Below Deck Sailing Yacht, Erica brought her husband Charles Sanders and her mom Cindi along with a few other couples. Before the charter even started, the crew was told that Cindi was going to be late because she had gotten kicked off the plane. Erica informed chief stew Daisy Kelliher that it was because Cindi had snuck into the first-class cabin and stole Charles’ food.
After Cindi finally made it onto Parsifal III, Daisy laid out the dinner menu for the guests. Upon hearing that they were having watermelon gazpacho, Chuck immediately nixed it, calling it “disgusting” and a “bunch of crap.” As a result, Chef Marcos Spaziani came up with a much simpler menu consisting of steak and roasted vegetables. Cindi complained that the dinner was a “man’s meal,” while Chuck said it was the best steak he ever had. The next morning, even though the guests had planned a beach brunch and didn’t request breakfast, Chuck asked for an omelette. The first one wasn’t to his liking, so Chef Marcos made him another one. It still wasn’t good enough for Chuck, so he stomped around the dining room calling Chef Marcos' food “putrid” and “disgusting.”
As the crew tried to get the guests off the boat to their beach picnic, they noticed a huge brown stain on the white sofa. All the guests denied doing it, but it turned out that Cindi had sat on it with spray tanner all over her body. Captain Glenn tried to help the stews get it out, but nothing seemed to work. On the beach, Chuck was bragging about being rude and demanding to servers. Fed up with Chuck’s obnoxious behavior, charter guests Rhett and Janelle Flatt called him out. Rhett overheard Chuck calling Janelle a “b****” and threatened to knock him out. Chuck denied saying it but Rhett and Janelle wanted nothing to do with Chuck for the rest of the charter.
The BDSY crew was happy when the charter finally ended. Alas, upon finding out how much Erica and Chuck left for a tip, their jaws dropped. Charles, who had boasted that he was a very good tipper, only left the entire crew with $6,500 in tips. BDSY fans slammed Erica and Charles for giving the lowest tip in Below Deck history. Fans also noted how entitled Charles was and how poorly he treated the staff. Erica and Cindi retaliated by publicly speaking out against Daisy. The chief stew called Erica "exhausting" and "emotionally draining," and she hopes that Erica Rose and Charles Sanders never return on Below Deck Sailing Yacht ever again.
