Captain Lee Rosbach, the legendary “Stud of the Sea” from Below Deck, remains a beloved figure even after stepping away from the show that made him a household name.

Health Struggles and Departure from Below Deck
Captain Lee’s exit from Below Deck in Season 10 wasn’t voluntary. Health issues, specifically nerve damage that affected his mobility, forced him to leave mid-season. Captain Sandy Yawn temporarily replaced him as captain while he hoped to recover and return. Unfortunately, Bravo decided to take the show in a “different direction,” which marked the end of Captain Lee’s time as the face of Below Deck. The veteran captain expressed his disappointment with the way things ended, noting that he wished he could have wrapped up his time on the show on his own terms. Despite the sudden departure, Captain Lee is not one to sit back quietly.
New Ventures and Upcoming Projects
Even though Below Deck moved on, Captain Lee hasn’t retired. In fact, he has several new projects lined up, including a return to television. He’s set to host a new crime show called Deadly Waters on Oxygen. The show dives into mysterious cases involving water-related deaths, with Captain Lee offering his insights and perspective. This new venture is a shift from his usual yachting role, but it taps into his love for investigation and storytelling.
Additionally, Captain Lee hinted at working on multiple new projects with Bravo. While he’s keeping details under wraps, he suggested that some familiar faces from the Below Deck franchise might join him in these endeavors. There’s even speculation that former chief stewardess Kate Chastain could make an appearance alongside him, further thrilling fans of the original series.
