In this episode of Yachting USA , Captain Kerry joins Rick Thomas for a rare and deeply honest conversation about the career, discipline, setbacks, healing, and leadership journey that shaped him long before television entered the picture. Kerry traces his path from parasailing boats and commercial vessels to landing barges, yacht engineering, refit work, luxury yacht service, and eventually superyacht command. He talks about grinding for sea time, taking night jobs, working for free when necessary, learning from every vessel he stepped onto, and earning the experience that would later carry him into the public eye through Below Deck Adventure and the main Below Deck franchise. But this episode is not only about a captain’s maritime career. It is about what happens behind the title. Kerry speaks openly about depression, divorce, grief, therapy, medication, meditation, breathwork, accountability, and the personal work that changed how he leads. He also shares why he started Mental Health Mondays , using his platform to speak honestly about difficult moments while offering practical tools that may help others move through their own. This is a yachting conversation with real depth: commercial boating, superyacht leadership, white boat service, Below Deck, mental health, resilience, accountability, and the courage it takes to keep rebuilding without pretending the hard parts never happened. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SUPPORTED BY Engineered Yacht Solutions ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ https://eyswelding.com 🎙️ Yachting USA | Yachting International Radio 🎙️ Host: Rick Thomas 👤 Guest: Captain Kerry Titheradge, Below Deck 📺 Prefer to read?
