It’s safe to say that the Below Deck Season 12 crew has seen their fair share of interesting charter guests — however, nothing could’ve prepared the yachties for the challenging guest they encounter in this preview for Episode 9 (set to air Monday, July 28).Â
The sneak peek, which you can check out above, kicks off with Chief Stew Fraser Olender ushering the boat’s new charter guests to lunch. Once seated, Kelly, a friend of the primary guest, begins to yell and chant “let’s go, let’s go!”
Clearly annoyed, Brian, one of the other charter guests, tells her to quiet down. “Kelly, stop!” he pleads.
As Fraser and Barbara Kulaif serve the group food, Kelly continues to annoy the table.
“Kelly, if you drink less, we can enjoy everything,” Brain declares.
“Hey, I talk about whatever I want, whenever I want,” Kelly shoots back.

Back in the kitchen, Barbara and Solene Favreau can’t contain their frustration. “Oh my god, these people,” Barbara sighs. “Nightmare.”
Kelly, meanwhile, declares she’s “ready for Jack Daniels,” at which point Fraser steps in to tell her, “If you’re really keen to jet ski, you’ve just gotta be aware of how much you’re drinking.”Â
Offended, Kelly shuts Fraser down. “Oh my gosh, you don’t know our tolerance,” she argues. “Like, you have no idea.”
“We can see your tolerance,” Fraser jokes.
Adds Rainbeau de Roos in a confessional interview, “She is, like, schwasted — like, s–t-faced. She had to be chugging bottles of champagne in the taxi on the way over. She’s on a f–king spaceship to the moon.”
Barbara Kulaif admits why she’s “scared” of the charter guests

Another preview for the upcoming episode shows the charter guests embarking the St. David and getting a tour of the stunning yacht. Kelly, for her part, immediately declares that she “needs some champagne.”
Meanwhile, Barbara is immediately put off by the squad. “[I do] not have a good feeling,” she confesses in a confessional interview. “I don’t know, I hate [judging] people, but they look like [The] Addams Family, I don’t know. Something dark, something not nice. I hope I’m wrong to be honest but they’re weird.”
A look back at past charter guests on Below Deck Season 12
As mentioned earlier, the Below Deck crew has had their fair share of unpleasant experiences with charter guests this season. On Episode 4, Captain Kerry Titheradge was stunned by the “pathetic” tip the crew received after a taxing five-day charter. The tip totaled $19,990, meaning each crew member earned a measly $1,500. Although the number may seem large, Kerry explained that for a five-day charter, he “would expect a lot more.”Â

On Episode 6, the yachties ran into more trouble, as they were stuck with quite the demanding group. The guests specifically picked on Rainbeau, with the primary’s friend telling the second stew she was on her “s–t list.”
We’ll have to wait until Season 12, Episode 9 airs on July 28 to see exactly what goes down between the crew and these new, unpredictable charter guests. For now, learn about another interesting guest who recently boarded the St. David.
