Iain Maclean's Crew Expresses Frustration Over His Management Style
During Episode 4, deck crew relations got tense after the crew was tasked with setting up an Olympic games-themed beach picnic party for guests. After telling Joe and Gael that they could tackle set up as well as come up with the ideas for games, Iain dropped them off on an island without any water.
As they thirstily scouted locations to set up the bash, Joe told Gael that Iain's approach was "bad management."
“There’s no leadership at all," he added in a confessional. "Iain could have helped. We’re tired already.”
Although Nathan Gallagher wasn't with them, he also expressed some concerns after Iain explained to Nathan where he should find some trolleys.
"If this is going to continue, with Iain micromanaging, I know I won't be happy," Nathan declared.
Will the guests be pleased, nonetheless? Find out when Below Deck Mediterranean Season 9, Episode 6 airs on Monday, July 8. Episodes stream the next day on Peacock.
