How ironic is it that the new season premieres on Groundhog Day with the inclusion of so many faces from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/show\/below-deck\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Below Deck\u2019s<\/a> past?<\/p>\n<p>Even more ironic is that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/captain-jason-chambers\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Captain Jason Chambers<\/a> and his crew won\u2019t actually be \u201cdown under\u201d this season. For some reason, the crew is in the Caribbean, specifically Canouan. Though they\u2019re not really \u201cdown under,\u201d, as Captain Jason says, \u201cDown under is a state of mind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not only will the Season 4 crew welcome the full cast from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/show\/real-housewives-of-salt-lake-city\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City<\/a>, but the crew list includes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/10\/29\/below-deck-down-under-season-4-cast-rhoslc\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">multiple familiar faces<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>BDDU Season 4 features some iconic Below Deck stars<\/p>\n<p>First to arrive Chief Stew <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/daisy-kelliher\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Daisy Kelliher<\/a>, Chef Ben Robinson and Bosun <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/joao-franco\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jo\u00e3o Franco<\/a>. As they exclaim over the size of the boat, Chef Ben says, \u201cWell, it\u2019s probably got quite a big galley if it\u2019s that beamy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not missing a beat, Jo\u00e3o snaps back, \u201cLove a boat with a big girth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been six years since Ben\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2024\/11\/26\/chef-ben-robinson-ready-below-deck-comeback\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">worked on a boat<\/a>. Serendipitously, he \u201cbumped into\u201d Captain Jason a week earlier. Jason had just lost his Season 4 chef, so he immediately offered Ben the job.<\/p>\n<p>For her part, Daisy explains, \u201cMy last four seasons on Parsifal had so many ups and downs.

But Jason, he\u2019s like a big brother to me and a mentor.
