He understands that it comes as shock to Captain Sandy and Below Deck fans that he “may or may not be back.” Captain Lee shared that it’s “open-ended,” but he wanted to work on getting better for his crew so he can make a stronger comeback. He also knows how hard it was for Captain Sandy to take over in the midst of a charter season.

“The fact that she was willing to jump in; that she sucked it up and came on board and did what I asked her to do?” Captain Lee continued. “I owe her big time for that. For her to step forward and take it on says a lot about her.”

He also expressed his gratitude to her on Monday’s episode of Below Deck. Captain Sandy already received a mixed reaction from fans. However, Captain Lee was happy to see her arrive in St. Lucia. He thanked her for “coming on such short notice.”
