Below Deck: My Seanna Gets Interim Captain

In the trailer for Below Deck, we learn that Captain Lee Rosbach won’t be arriving at the boat due to an unspecified circumstance but we also learn that he’s likely to return later in the season.

For the time being though, the crew will have to adapt to the new captain, Sean Meagher, who is clearly the perfect choice for replacing Captain Rosbach, since he is the actual real-world captain of the My Seanna, when it’s not being filmed with Rosbach at the helm.

Below Deck – Who Is Captain Sean Meagher?

According to Starcasm, Sean Meagher grew up in Cape Cod, Massachusetts and began sailing at the age of eight.

By the time he reached 18 years of age, he was already the youngest captain at the ferry company Hyline Cruises.

In his long career sailing, he has traveled throughout the world, passing through the ice fields of the Northwest Passage and even The North Pole.

Meagher has explored the four corners of the earth and, through his other passion, photography, he has recorded his journeys through images.

Many of the images that the new captain has captured during his journeys chronicle the vast swaths of plastic waste that riddle the oceans, much of which can be found in remote regions of the globe.

He works for a non-profit organization called, The Ocean Voyages Institute, founded in 1979 by a group of international sailors, educators, and conservationists whose mission is teaching maritime arts and sciences and preserving the world’s oceans.
