Captain Lee Rosbach has always had more of a hands-off approach with his chef on Below Deck. But he fired one chef when his dirty oven seemed to be behind a late-night kitchen fire.
Rosbach only fired one chef and worked with two chefs for multiple seasons. Who were Rosbach’s chefs during his 10 years on Below Deck?
Chef Ben Robinson was Captain Lee’s ‘Below Deck’ chef for 3 1/2 seasons
Robinson helped to kick off Below Deck Season 1 and executive producer Mark Cronin initially thought perhaps Robinson was going to be the focal point of the series.

“We knew we had a chef who was going to be doing Michelin-star food,” Cronin told Showbiz Cheat Sheet in 2021. “And we didn’t know, like we thought, well, how much is this a cooking show,...

Below Deck Season 10 yachties set a tip record when they earned a total of $222,300 for the season, approximately $17,000 per crew member.
Not bad for six weeks of work. Captain Lee Rosbach was even pretty impressed. “Well done, guys,” he said during the season finale. “Just a really, really cohesive unit. It meant the world to me. It makes my life a whole lot easier. And when I’m happy, everybody’s happy, right?”
“So let’s get down to some money,” he added. “This is the most money collectively as a group I’ve ever seen. You guys split up $222,300… $17,000 per person. Damn near a quarter of a million dollars.”
Below Deck Season 10 set the record for the most tip money ever on Below Deck. But Below Deck Mediterranean Season 7 wasn’t far behind, which certainly raises the bar for future seasons. So which seasons saw some of the highest tip totals?...

Captain Lee Rosbach has always begrudgingly said that Below Deck guest Timothy Sykes delivered the highest tip ever.
Sykes tipped the Below Deck Season 5 crew $35,000, after initially appearing on Below Deck Season 2. And while the Below Deck Season 10 crew has seen a few tips at $30,000 this season, Jake Clopton and guests set a new record, leaving a $40,000 tip.
The ‘Below Deck’ crew earned that $40,000 tip
Clopton and friends definitely made the crew work for their tip, but the crew and Captain Lee Rosbach had a blast with them too. When Clopton’s friend Angel fell asleep on one of the large floats, Rosbach, and the other charter guests decided to prank him and allow the float to drag several additional feet behind the superyacht.

Instagram comedian Adam Waheed -- who counts 2.1 million followers on that app, as well as 3.2 million followers on his burgeoning TikTok account -- is harnessing his influence to help children in need.
The 27-year-old, who also stars in a digital send-up of the show Shark Tank for Comedy Central called Pitch Please, has raised roughly $30,000 to open a school for kids in Bali. Waheed and his followers helped fund the construction of the newly-christened Adam Waheed School, which serves 195 children complete with brand new books and computers. Waheed also visited the facility last month to celebrate its opening, calling it “the greatest day of my life and my most proud accomplishment yet.”
The project came about after Waheed’s manager connected him with Timothy Sykes -- the co-founder of Karmagawa, a charity organization that works in various fields, including plastic reduction, and providing food, medical facilities, and education to those in need.
