Below Deck Season 4: Where Is the Crew Now?

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Ben Robinson: I try not to live my life with regrets. Having said that I suppose there were moments I was not massively proud of, that will always happen. Maybe questioning the psychic was a little overboard, but I wanted to know if Emily and I had a future, and I seemed to value that more than professionalism. My brother lifting up my shirt to expose my derrière was unfortunate. But as it turns out, I have, admittedly, one of the nicest asses in the free world!

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
BR: Lots of private cooking gigs, nationwide. I have developed my own chef knife, which will be available for sale in the earlier part of the upcoming year. And I have been involved in product development for an exciting new food ingredient, Lentien.

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
BR: Emily and Nico for the most part.

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Kelley Johnson: This season I can say I don't regret anything. I learned a lot and constantly improved throughout the season. I was far from perfect, but everything is a growing process.

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
KJ: I have been working on the boat that I took a break from to go on the show. It's an amazing program, and I have a Captain that I consider one of my best friends. I am really blessed to be on this boat and have the opportunities I do here. I am writing you from the Bahamas right now!

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
KJ: I keep in touch with a few, but as I have returned to my job and my real life, I have slowly stopped talking to many people. I would say Captain Lee is the number one person. Nico and Lauren from time to time, and once in a blue moon I will talk to Kate. I wish nothing but the best for everyone, but we all have our own things going on.

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Kate Chastain: My only regret about this season is that I tried for the first time to stay in contact with someone on land who demanded a lot of my attention. I usually just leave my land relationships where they are until I'm back from a charter season. I don't think it affected my work, but it definitely distracted me during our off hours and kept me from bonding with the crew a bit. Although, after seeing how the crew spoke and behaved during the season, I'm not really sure that was a total loss on my part either.

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
KC: I've been getting more settled into a land life since leaving Valor. I really enjoyed decorating my condo and have adopted a dog who is absolutely perfect, although I may be a little bit biased. In my free time I started working with a local women's shelter and that has been very rewarding. I also just published a book that I started writing in 2008 about all of my experiences working on yachts. It's been a passion project for me for quite some time and to now see it finished feels amazing.

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
KC: I speak with Captain Lee about once a week. I think this season on Valor made Captain Lee and I appreciate each other more than ever, and I truly value his opinion on pretty much everything. And I swear he just gets funnier every time we talk. Ben has come to visit my hometown a few times. He brought a really cool and pretty yacht stew named Lauren in August, so it was great to meet her, and then he even brought Emily with him another time as well. Kyle calls me from time to time and I always enjoy hearing from him. I've messaged with Kelley and keep in contact with his sister Amy. Also Kat, Jennice, and Connie from prior seasons. For some reason Leon still won't return my phone calls though, which is unfortunate.

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Nico Scholly: As far as the charter season went, I don’t have any work regrets as far as my decisions. However, the one thing I would have changed would be the night in the master cabin. Typically it’s frowned upon to party in any guest cabins, even with the permission of the chief stew, and the partying went a bit out of control.

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
NS: Since the season ended I spent some time at home with my family for a few months then flew back to Florida and got right back to work. I'm currently a solo mate on a very busy charter boat in the Caribbean. Going back to some of the spots we visited on Valor, such as the baths, makes me miss it at times!

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
NS: It’s typical in yachting that after a season people start to slowly disperse onto other boats and new friends. However, I speak regularly to Lauren. Also, I’ve talked from time to time to Ben, Emily, and Kelley. As far as the other crew, we see each other in passing and are typically friendly. All and all it was a fun season.

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Kyle Dixon: My only regret was that I wasn't there from the beginning.

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
KD: I have been working on London Docks as a deck/engineer.

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
KD: I speak to the crew from time to time, but speak with Kate the most.

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Lauren Burchell: I have no regrets really. I made the most out of the whole experience, worked hard, said yes to all opportunities and have made some lifelong friends. I'm sure if I was given another chance to do it all again, I would still make the same choices (or mistakes, hah!).

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
LB: After the season ended I went back home to Australia to spend some quality time with friends and family. Then after a couple of months moved to Canada and have been road tripping and travelling around since.

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
LB: Nico and Sierra have easily become two of my closest friends now -- I'm in frequent contact with both of them and have caught up heaps!

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Emily Warburton-Adams: I loved every moment of the season. I do wish, however, that I had demonstrated a stronger side of me and voiced certain things that I let lie.

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
EWA: I've been keeping very busy. I went to Japan for three weeks, have built a website (www.english-emily.com), and been studying to be a Health Coach. I'm now working on some projects in the States with Ben.

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
EWA: I'm in touch with everyone, some more than others.

Bravotv.com: Do you have any regrets about this charter season?
Sierra Storm: I regret participating at all. I knew in my heart the program wasn't a right fit for me…so much drama! But live and learn, right? If I could do it again, I would remember it’s only temporary and I have my whole life in front of me.

Bravotv.com: What have you been up to since the season ended?
SS: Working hard on various vessels, and living a very private life focusing on my love for all things true and beautiful.

Bravotv.com: Which crew members are you still in touch with?
SS: I’m cool with everyone. Ems, Lauren, Nico, and Ben have my heart forever.
