There's a whole lot of new in store for Captain Sandy Yawn as she takes the helm of the new 163-foot motor yacht Home in a whole new location for the franchise, Malta. "This is my first time ever in Malta," she says in the above trailer for Season 7. "This season, for me, it's a new place, a new boat, with new department heads."

But you know Captain Sandy isn't intimidated by any of that one bit, confidently proclaiming in the clip, "Challenge accepted."

Captain Sandy will welcome a mostly new crew aboard Home this season, including chief stew Natasha Webb, chef Dave White, bosun Raygan Tyler, stews Natalya Scudder and Kyle Viljoen, and deckhands Storm Smith and Jason Gaskell.

However, Captain Sandy will have one familiar face among the yachties: Mzi "Zee" Dempers, who served as a deckhand in Season 6 of Below Deck Med. He returns as a deckhand once again this season.

Expect outrageous costumes, wild nights out, and some major inter-departmental drama — and that doesn't even cover what the charter guests are going to bring in the new season. The fact that one group strips off their swimsuits in the above trailer should give you an idea of just how OTT they will be.

But it looks like there will be some love amid all the conflict this season. With things getting flirty between Natalya and Storm, as well as questions about whether Natasha and Dave are more than just friends, boatmances will be a major topic of conversation this season. And is there about to be a fling between a crew member and a charter guest?!

As if all of that wasn't jaw-dropping enough, there's about to be some major crises at sea this season, including one that leaves Captain Sandy saying, "F--k."

Check out everything coming up in the new season of Below Deck Med, above.
