Reality TV breakout star and yachtie stewardess Mads Herrera impressed Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 4 fans right from the get-go because of her maturity at a young age. She’s so far handled First Officer Gary King’s man-child antics expertly, barely giving him the time of day after drunkenly fooling around. She also doesn’t take herself too seriously, and likes to rib her fellow crew members. The blonde beauty has certainly attracted attention from the male crew members. The entire deck crew, including deckhands Chase Lemacks and Alex Propson, developed crushes on her on the show. So who is stewardess Mads from Below Deck Sailing Yacht?

Stewardess Mads grew up in South Florida in the small community of Boca Raton, located just north of Fort Lauderdale where many Below Deck yachties live because it’s a major superyacht port city. A small city of just under 100,000 people, Boca Raton mostly consists of rich retirees, so Mads naturally joined the booming yachting industry there. Mads only had a couple of years experience in the yachting industry before joining superyacht Parsifal III‘s crew in Sardinia, Italy.
Before work, Mads attended the University of Louisville.

Mads, age 25, has an Instagram following of 5,500 where she doesn’t post very often. Mads likes to live fast, enjoying traveling, skydiving, snowboarding, and dirt biking. She’s traveled throughout Thailand, Punta Cana, Mexico, Hawaii, Maldives, and Bali, Indonesia.
In a recent Instagram story, Mads and Chase watched episode six of Below Deck Sailing Yacht together, sparking rumors they’re dating.

After filming BDSY season 4, Mads, Chase, Alex and Chef Ileisha Dell went on a road trip to Joshua Tree National Park in California, as well as LA. While on the show, Mads apparently kissed and flirted with all of the deck crew. She said she wasn’t opposed to “screwing the crew” if they knew were any good at it. In previews for an upcoming episode, Gary appears to make a move on Mads again after she flirts a bunch with Alex on a crew night out. Gary also appears to get jealous when she begins to show Alex more attention.

It’s too early to tell what happens with Mads and the three co-stars interested in her, but the latest IG story with Chase, as well as the trip in an RV with Chase and Alex is perhaps a sign she’s dating one of them. She also posted a picture of Chase giving her a piggy back ride on the show.

Although it’s too early to tell, fans are eager to see if a boatmance can actually last off the show.
