Below Deck's second charter of season 13 logged 20 complaints in its first 24 hours and still ended in a big tip, Bravo reports of the 2 November episode.

The guests, led by Carolyn Kavanagh with her partner Robby and his sister Melani, called the champagne "not drinkable", waited on breakfast and lost towels on the way to an elephant sanctuary. Chef Moe Vilomar left a requested rice-noodle dish off Melani's birthday menu.

> The group left $33,333, which is $2,777 a crew member, Bravo says. "Did we deserve this? Probably not, to be honest," Captain Kerry Titheradge said at the tip meeting.

On the dock Robby called the trip awesome. Carolyn, privately, said he had sugarcoated it.
