After Captain Sandy Yawn and Fraser Olender's argument, Below Deck fans are on the chief stew's side. Sandy got upset when Fraser encouraged the charter guests to pack their stuff before breakfast so they could spend as much time on deck as possible before departing. Sandy felt he was rushing guests off the boat. When Fraser explained himself, Sandy said he always has an excuse for everything and never takes accountability. Sandy later got angry because she thought Fraser, Alissa Humber, and Tyler Walker were standing around doing nothing while the deck crew was doing all the work. Fraser tried to explain himself again, but Sandy told him to stop talking.Below Deck season 10's Fraser got on Sandy's bad side again, and unfortunately for the captain, fans think she is in the wrong.
Twitter user @quirings1 compared the way Sandy gives constructive criticism to chef Rachel Hargrove but yells at Fraser. "This is why I'm not a Captain Sandy fan," the Below Deck fan wrote. "Her management style isn't consistent and can be abusive." Another fan believes Fraser was right to tell the guests to pack early and that Sandy should apologize to him. The Twitter user @shersters wrote, "I feel like, as usual, she's micromanaging the crew. When does Captain Lee get back?"
Fraser Has Angered Captain Sandy Throughout Below Deck season 10
Sandy and Fraser have gotten into a few disagreements during Below Deck season 10. Sandy has been especially frustrated with Fraser because she thinks he tries too hard to be everyone's friend instead of taking charge and acting as their boss. Things worsened after Camille Lamb and Alissa Humber's fight when Sandy wanted to talk to both girls separately and figure out what happened. Fraser tried to stop Sandy from talking to Camille, which angered Sandy. The Captain told him never to speak to her like that again.
Below Deck fans clearly see that Sandy is not treating Fraser respectfully. The chief stew is excellent at his job, and charter guests love him because he makes them feel welcome and comfortable while maintaining a level of professionalism. While Sandy might get frustrated with him, she shouldn't talk down to him or act like he isn't doing his job well. When she got mad at him toward the end of the recent Below Deck episode, she suggested he was being lazy, and everyone who watches Below Deck knows this is not the case.
At the same time, Sandy is also very good at doing her job. Running a yacht is no easy feat, and sometimes, she lets her anger out on the wrong people at the wrong time. Below Deck fans and crew members should have compassion, especially because Sandy is a woman working in a male-dominated industry. She expressed frustration over this during Below Deck season 10 when a male captain tried to get her to move her yacht so that he didn't have to move his. The Fraser and Sandy drama could easily come to an end if the two had a conversation and heard each other out.
Below Deck airs Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo.
