Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 is underway, but the show suffers without Colin Macrae, Daisy Kelliher, and Gary King's former dynamic. The first charter of the season featured some demanding guests and a potential disaster for new chef Cloyce Martin, but he ended up pleasing the charter guests with steaks, shots, and even a rap. Colin is missed so far, with new Chief Engineer Davide Morosi neglecting to make an impact on Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5.

Colin is living his best life on a fixed-up catamaran, sailing with friends around the world. While the former chief engineer is currently in Fiji, his friend's and coworkers' drama is unfolding on Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5. Chef Cloyce is becoming a liability, preferring to hang out with guests rather than cook their meals. Captain Glenn Shephard is understandably upset Gary crashed a boat and potentially caused water damage, threatening the safety of the crew. Meanwhile, Gary and Daisy can't stop fighting. They need Colin to save the crew.

Daisy, Gary, & Colin All Started During Season 2

They Used To Be Good Friends

Daisy, Colin, and Gary started on Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 2. The three used to be good friends, but everything fell apart when romance was introduced to the mix. Daisy, Colin, and Gary's love triangle caused irreparable tension. Daisy and Colin, who developed a boatmance after Colin's breakup with his previous girlfriend, caused strife for Gary. It was revealed Daisy had slept with Gary after season 3, something she hadn’t told Colin about. Gary’s ongoing flirtation with Daisy during season 4 further strained the trio's dynamic.

Colin felt betrayed by Daisy and Gary when he found out about their past relationship, which he believed should have been disclosed to him. At the reunion, Colin accused Daisy of being "toxic," citing their constant fights and her close interactions with Gary, which had damaged their relationship. By the end of the season, Colin and Daisy were no longer on speaking , and both itted their friendship had taken a hit. While Daisy and Gary are working together on Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5, their dynamic is still stunted.

Fans Have Loved Their Friendship From The Start

They Were A Great Trio

Colin, Daisy, and Gary used to be a great trio. Gary and Colin had a fun bromance, with Colin keeping it together as a professional and Gary getting messy. Additionally, Daisy's dry sense of humor and no-nonsense approach to yachting added another element to the dynamic. Before their respective hookups, Daisy seemed like one of the boys with Colin and Gary, making for a fun and dynamic crew. Unfortunately, that was ruined when Gary became jealous of Colin and Daisy's relationship onboard.

Will Colin Ever Return & Make Below Deck Sailing Yacht Whole Again?

He Could Come Back For Season 6

He's currently sailing around the world with friends, documenting his travels on a YouTube channel. However, Colin's undoubtedly a great engineer who has a solid relationship with Captain Glenn. As Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 continues to unfold, it's clear that Daisy and Gary need Colin to make the dynamic right again. While he and Daisy left things on bad , hopefully, they can make up in time for Colin to return for Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 6.
