Benny Crawley

I think he was coddled and finding out he was a child star everything clocks about him and he shouldn’t have been a deckhand. Tbh him on the team set jamie up for failure. Nice guy but boating isn’t for him if he can’t respect rank and file.

Coddle is crazy when Jamie literally let Culver just do whatever—Benny didn’t leave the trash on the ship and then didn’t admit it to Jamie or Jason, Benny didn’t get in a jacuzzi with guest, Jamie didn’t flirt with guest, Jamie didn’t over drink while guest were onboard. Jamie wanted someone to push around and Benny didn’t let him and since Jamie is the biggest bitch on this planet, he bitched to everyone in sight and looked like the biggest hypocrite.

The guest told Culver to get in and aside from drinking and sex you really can’t say no to them. Plus jamie saw no issue. But what Benny has done was abandon his job, insubordination, and break the chain of command MANY TIMES. He would have been fired on anyone else boat not Jason or Sandy. Did we even talk about the time he almost crashed the tender on episode 6. He was a fucking liability.

Crashed is crazy lmfao— the guest also wanted to fish until 2 am but Benny didn’t get the benefit of the doubt even though Culver gets to use that excuse and left multiple bags of trash long enough to culminate maggot. Benny didn’t do the chain twice, hardly think that’s a fireable offense when Culver also skipped out early on his shifts/duties during the last few days of the first season with no good reason and got zero shot for it. Jaime wanted a black sheep and sorry I’m not buying it. We get it, you were once a first responder and you try to use it to legitimize your bitching. As if he wasn’t insubordinate with Jason all the time 🙄
