    I did 3 crossings as a deckhand. Enjoyed 2 of them. 1 of them I swear the captain was a sadist and a drunk. He found every storm system in the Atlantic and aimed for it I'm convinced. We made it to Italy and immediately had to go on the hard for 3 weeks for repairs after the crossing, 8 knots was too slow, the boat could cruise at 13 and that is what he aimed for. In rough seas, it was miserable. I love rough weather on boats. But after a while of feeling like you're in a washing machine and you aren't passing out cold from drinking like the captain was so you got no sleep, it wears on you. I would have loved to had Paul as a captain...or any competent captain really.

    Is there ever a situation (for example a crossing with no guests on board), where more crew than crew cabins available are needed/ on board? Would the guest suites be used in that case, or do they generally stay vacant without guests on board? Love the Videos and the Crew!

      I'd expect everyone not needed for the crossing to be on vacation, as they're not going to be carrying paying passengers. Then, when they arrive in the Med, the people are rested and ready for paying customers again.

      When the old videographer left they fell behind in posting for a while. Captain Paul said a few weeks ago that they're going to be trying to catch up on what hasn't been shared yet while still sharing current stuff, but it'll take a while. The GP videos aren't going to get nearly as good of engagement when they're released weeks after the event actual ends. I for one want to see the crossing, so I'm happy they're still putting them out instead of just skipping the process.
