Madison Stalker of 'Below Deck Sailing Yacht' was in for a surprise when charter guest Lenny lifted her like he'd pick a dumbbell and said: "I am working out." She was in tears and thought it was extremely disrespectful.

Madison has a special connection with Parker McCown, who has been around for her and with her whenever she needed him. After serving the charter guests, Madison walked down and spoke to Parker about how she felt about the whole incident. He calmed her down and asked her to carry on with her work.

In her green-room interview, she wondered how she'd have to continue working without anyone knowing what went down on the deck with the boys, especially Lenny because the crew needs to take care of charter guests and a complaint would affect the tip.

This is the first time in a while that the crew has had to face such a loud and brash bunch of guests. Even though the boys were only trying to have fun, they should have shown some amount of consideration towards those taking care of them on the ship. 

Jenna MacGillivray too was on the receiving end for a simple miscommunication. The guests wanted to get off the yacht, go partying at a beach club. Upon inquiring, Jenna learned that it closes down at 11 pm. To be doubly sure, one of the boys called the club. He was informed that they were open till 2 am. Immediately, Jenna got an earful for lying. However, some agreed that it was just a misunderstanding.

The crew was visibly upset with the way the charter guests were being on board but what could be expected of a group of boys who were guzzling down alcohol like there was no tomorrow. Meanwhile, fans are livid and questioning the behavior of these men. 

"Straight men should be kept underground and only used for breeding. #belowdecksailing #belowdecksailingyacht," a fan wrote, while another shared: "NOT COOL picking up Madison like she's a SET of weights! I BET Jenna says to blow it OFF, it's part of the job! #BelowDeckSailing."

"#BelowDeckSailing Madison is assaulted on deck by a guest in front of 10 people.. filmed.. no one says a word.. paying for a charter doesn't include harassing or assaulting the crew," a viewer pointed out.

"The fact that the men’s immediate reaction was 'don’t tell no one' and 'who is she gonna call, the Greek cops?' ...those are dudes with sexual assault charges in their past #belowdecksailing," another expressed.
