Taking to Instagram, Ben revealed he has released a statement in defense of what Captain Kerry said about him during his EW interview which was filled with negativity about the bosun.
“It’s very unfortunate that Captain Kerry decided to speak out regarding my role as Bosun on the current season of Below Deck and eluding that I ‘may not make the whole season’ but everyone will see as the episodes play out,” he wrote.
Ben went on to call out the captain and express his disappointment while defending his work as a yachtie.
“With all due respect to Captain Kerry, I’m disappointed that he appears to be insinuating a false claim on my work ethic and career, which could gravely damage my reputation and character in an industry that I have worked hard in and grown in for 5+ years now,” Ben ended his statement.
