Below Deck's Captain Sandy Yawn on Going from Rock Bottom to Captaining Million Dollar Yachts

Before she was running million-dollar yachts on Below Deck Mediterranean, Captain Sandy Yawn was hiding from police in the bushes, getting kicked out of halfway houses, and spending nights at a Denny's with nowhere to go. In this conversation, Carl and Captain Sandy get into how she clawed her way to 36 years sober, why she leads her crew with empathy instead of ego, and the ultimatum she once gave a crew member that may have saved their life. Tough, honest, and full of hard-won wisdom on what it actually takes to rebuild a life and become the captain fans know today.
