Throughout its Bravo run, crew members like Captain Sandy Yawn, Hannah Ferrier, Malia White and more have been know to butt heads with each other \u2014 all with the purpose of delivering a [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Nathan\u2019s attempt to move the water toys into place led to the WaveRunners crashing into the front of the boat. Sandy tried to step in, but the damage was done as the WaveRunners ran over \u2014 and broke \u2014 several parts of the vessel, in full view of the guests.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was all over the place for him in the beginning,\u201d Sandy exclusively told <em>Us Weekly<\/em>. \u201cIn my experience, that has happened before. Crew have done that. They\u2019re just not paying attention, and it was a mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The captain was confident that Nathan <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/below-deck-crew-members-reveal-who-theyd-never-work-with-again-excl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">would \u201cnever\u201d let that happen<\/a> again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019ll pay attention. But he has got to learn it\u2019s a learning curve. I don\u2019t care whatever role you\u2019re in, it is all new. Nathan transforms into this child when he sits on a WaveRunner and he forgets about whatever else is going on around him,\u201d Sandy noted before quipping, \u201cThat\u2019s something he has to figure out on his own because I don\u2019t know how to make that happen for him. In the meantime, I don\u2019t want him to hit the boat anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite causing some visible damage, Sandy confirmed that Nathan didn\u2019t have to pay for it, adding, \u201cHe wouldn\u2019t have to. Not at all. Accidents happen. Nathan didn\u2019t purposely run into the boat. Trust me, it was an accident.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She continued: \u201cI\u2019ve had crew run the tenders into the ground \u2014 that\u2019s expensive. Sometimes interior drops some glasses. But in my career, I haven\u2019t seen a lot of damage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Season 10, which returned on Monday, reunited Captain Sandy with Nathan <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/below-deck-captains-and-stars-tell-all-what-you-dont-see-on-tv-excl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">after they previously worked together<\/a> one year prior.

The spinoff series, which premiered in 2016, seemingly found a permanent crew member in chief stew Hannah Ferrier. The Australia native appeared in five seasons of the hit [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cConsistency makes a better boat,\u201d Sandy told <em>Us<\/em> about hoping to remain with some of the same crew season to season. \u201cYou\u2019re not always training people and they\u2019re not always finding their feet. But to be honest, every boat that we get every season is different. It\u2019s rare we get the same boat every season.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"news-block\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form  \">\n<div class=\"newsletter-signup__success\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<h3>Thank You!<\/h3>\n<p>You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Sandy explained that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/below-deck-meds-aesha-scott-promises-season-10-is-not-toxic-or-gross\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">there are always obstacles<\/a>, sharing, \u201cNo matter if you return or not, you\u2019re still going to have to figure out the boat because it\u2019ll probably be a different one. Having consistency when we return is great because the trust factor for me is there \u2014 or the watch factor to make sure I keep an eye on them. Because sometimes they\u2019re just not great at certain things but they\u2019re great at others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She concluded: \u201cAesha is well-rounded. [With Nathan], I think unless you\u2019re pushed into something, you\u2019re never going to know if you\u2019re a fit. I think pressure makes us better. I do apply the pressure and let\u2019s see how well Nathan handles that pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Below Deck Med<\/em> airs on Bravo Mondays at 8 p.m. ET.
