'Stud of the Sea': Former 'Below Deck' star Captain Lee Rosbach visits Daytona Bike Week
The 'Stud of the Sea' was in Daytona Beach.
The former star of Bravo's reality TV series 'Below Deck,' Captain Lee Rosbach is stepping off his mega yacht and jumping on his bike to enjoy the last few days of Bike Week.
In a video posted on Instagram Wednesday, Rosbach stood next to his white Can-Am Spyder bike to tease his trip to Volusia County.
'We're loaded up, got the bike on the trailer, hooked up to the motorhome,' Rosbach said in the video. 'Daytona Bike Week here we come — you ain't ready for us. We're going to have a good time.'
But in another post early Friday, Rosbach shared a screenshot of Daytona's 39-degree morning weather hinting he might be leaving town.

'Anyone who knows me, knows I don't do cold,' Rosbach wrote. 'It's a great thing my Spyder has heated everything. Headed south today where the weather suits my clothing.'
Rosbach, 75, has been a yacht captain for more than three decades, according to his profile page on Bravo's website.
Born and raised in Saginaw, Michigan, he had never even seen the ocean 'until moving to Turks & Caicos with his bride, Mary Anne, to run a restaurant in his mid-30s.'
'In need of cash, he responded to an ad he saw seeking a mate for a delivery on a sailboat — no experience necessary,' the website says. 'At 35, Lee obtained his captain's license and left the restaurant business behind to pursue his newfound passion.'
Rosbach starred in 10 seasons of 'Below Deck,' where the Stud of the Sea, as he is known, ran the ship "with a no-nonsense attitude and salty one-liners,' Bravo's website says.
In 2018, Rosbach released a memoir titled 'Running Against the Tide: True Tales from the Stud of the Sea,' recounting his life experiences as mega yacht captain.
Bravo's reality TV show 'Below Deck' first aired in July 2013. It follows the day-to-day life of a mega yacht crew as they take passengers on charters around the world.
'A young and single crew lives, loves and works aboard a luxurious yacht, meeting the ever-changing needs of demanding clients while visiting some of the world's most beautiful destinations,' read the show's synopsis on Peacock, where it's available to stream.
'Below Deck' has also spawned spin-off versions, including 'Below Deck Sailing Yacht,' 'Below Deck Down Under,' 'Below Deck Mediterranean' and more.

Joe Flacco talks about 'embarrassing' TikTok dances: 'Be an adult'
Joe Flacco is the elder statesman of the Cleveland Browns quarterback room. Having just turned 40 in January, Flacco has morphed into the "back in my day guy" and is now just one step away from telling the young whippersnappers to get off his lawn. Flacco has embraced that youthful energy in the twilight of his NFL career, taking the opportunity to pose for a fun photo at media day with rookie, Dillon Gabriel. Advertisement Regardless, he continued to provide plenty of entertainment for the media following Wednesday's minicamp practices, turning the session into a chat about social media, TikTok and posting dancing videos online. Flacco began discussing Twitter, now known as X, as it has evolved into a primary source of news. "The difference now is, everybody's getting their stuff from there, and it's treated a little bit more seriously because that is the main news source," Flacco said, via 92.3 The Fan's Daryl Ruiter. "You still have the same thing you always had, which is a million different opinions, but it kind of blends your actual news source with a bunch of other stuff." The quarterback went on to say that Instagram is the only social media platform he's used and made one thing clear –don't expect him to show up in a TikTok dancing video anytime soon. Advertisement "No TikTok dances," Flacco said. "The fact that people want to get on their phones and show people. That's embarrassing! You're an adult. Be an adult. I can't wrap my head around that." He followed up with some advice for the parents. "I get it, you have kids and you wanna have fun with your kids," Flacco added. "Like, have fun with your kids in private." Flacco appears to be no fan of the current social media landscape, but he also extended his media availability to discuss the good old days. While he wasn't walking up and down the rolling hills in 10 feet of snow to school, the quarterback did end up speaking about players who think offseason activities are too hard in the modern NFL. Advertisement "We're out there for an hour 15 minutes and guys think it's hard," Flacco said via Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein, referencing the two-a-days that used to be commonplace in the NFL. He went on to add that organized team activities (OTAs) used to be over two hours, highlighting just how much has changed since he entered the league in 2008. In other words, Flacco was in a reminiscing mood as the Super Bowl champion prepares for his 18th season in the league.
