Bosun Malia White was first seen as a deckhand in the second season of "Below Deck Mediterranean." She returned in season five, having risen in seniority to bosun. As her bio explained, now that she's earned her 200-ton Captain's License, she'll continue to pursue her dream of becoming a super yacht captain. "This season," the bio added, "Malia will take on even more responsibility and pressure as she leads a new deck team and charter guests through adventurous, nature-filled excursions."

In addition to the drama on the show, shortly after the season's premiere, she took to Instagram to reveal she was involved in a terrifying scooter accident while tooling around the Spanish island of Mallorca. 

First, she posted a series of photos and video of her "amazing day." She followed up by sharing a selfie of herself in a hospital bed, with a bruised face and IV in her hand. "Luckily, I was able to walk away with a few stitches, fractured elbow, broken toes, severe road rash and a very sore body," she wrote of her accident, admitting it would have been far worse had she not been wearing her helmet.
