<p>When you’re a guest on board a superyacht, it’s okay to be difficult — you or a dear friend is paying for the privilege — but please don’t tell the chef working below deck in a scorching, cramped galley: “I’m sorry, my dog eats food like this.”</p><p>Or, if you’ve been guzzling Champagne like it’s water, don’t ignore the captain’s orders and leap overboard without a life jacket. You could end up in jail.</p><p>But then you probably knew that if you were among the guests on the 207-foot superyacht “Satori,” docked at Navy Pier Marina last week — one of the largest private boats docked in the city in recent memory.</p><p>Oh, you weren’t?</p><p>In that case, you can pick up some yachting etiquette tips from two of America’s best-known celebrity superyacht captains: Sandy Yawn and Kerry Titheradge, both stars of the extremely popular Bravo “Below Deck” series and its numerous spinoffs.</p><p>Yawn and Titheradge will be entertaining fans of the show (and anyone else) during a three-hour <a class="Link" href="https://www.cityexperiences.com/city-cruises/live/chicago/all-hands-on-deck-with-captain-sandy-captain-kerry/" target="_blank" ><u>City Cruises event</u></a> leaving from Navy Pier on July 18.</p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center> <div class="Enhancement-item" data-crop=""> <figure class="Figure"><a class="AnchorLink" id="image-a00000" name="image-a00000"></a> <picture data-crop="medium"> <source type="image/webp" width="490" height="275" data-srcset="https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/32fd640/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1024x575+0+98/resize/490x275!/format/webp/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchorus-production-cst-web.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fde%2F98%2F7104679047d688b5c6d6f8a4d05a%2Fjayalixyacht-2607xx-1.jpg 1x,https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/9035c1b/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1024x575+0+98/resize/980x550!/format/webp/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchorus-production-cst-web.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fde%2F98%2F7104679047d688b5c6d6f8a4d05a%2Fjayalixyacht-2607xx-1.jpg 2x" data-lazy-load="true" srcset="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZlcnNpb249IjEuMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIyNzVweCIgd2lkdGg9IjQ5MHB4Ij48L3N2Zz4=" /> <source width="490" height="275" data-srcset="https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/90357b0/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1024x575+0+98/resize/490x275!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchorus-production-cst-web.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fde%2F98%2F7104679047d688b5c6d6f8a4d05a%2Fjayalixyacht-2607xx-1.jpg" data-lazy-load="true" srcset="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZlcnNpb249IjEuMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIyNzVweCIgd2lkdGg9IjQ5MHB4Ij48L3N2Zz4=" /> <img class="Image" alt="The superyacht Satori sits docked Thursday at Navy Pier Marina." srcset="https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/90357b0/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1024x575+0+98/resize/490x275!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchorus-production-cst-web.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fde%2F98%2F7104679047d688b5c6d6f8a4d05a%2Fjayalixyacht-2607xx-1.jpg 1x,https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/cee0274/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1024x575+0+98/resize/980x550!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchorus-production-cst-web.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fde%2F98%2F7104679047d688b5c6d6f8a4d05a%2Fjayalixyacht-2607xx-1.jpg 2x" width="490" height="275" data-src="https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/90357b0/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1024x575+0+98/resize/490x275!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchorus-production-cst-web.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fde%2F98%2F7104679047d688b5c6d6f8a4d05a%2Fjayalixyacht-2607xx-1.jpg" data-lazy-load="true" src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZlcnNpb249IjEuMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIyNzVweCIgd2lkdGg9IjQ5MHB4Ij48L3N2Zz4=" > </picture> <div class="Figure-content"><figcaption class="Figure-caption"><p>The superyacht Satori docked at Navy Pier Marina.</p></figcaption><span class="line"></span><div class="Figure-credit"><p>Justin Myers/Sun-Times</p></div></div> </figure> </div> </div><p>You might learn about the stress of navigating a megayacht through the incredibly tight passage beneath the drawbridge entering Port de Gustavia at the Caribbean island of Saint Barthelemy.</p><p>“It’s a bee’s d__k [on] either side,” said Titheradge, a native Australian.</p><p>You’ll learn, according to the event’s promotional material: “How to become the crew’s favorite guest without spending an extra dollar” and “the etiquette faux pas that instantly makes the crew members secretly dread certain guests.”</p><p>If you’re a regular “Below Deck” viewer, you probably know all of this.
