Colin joined the cast of Below Deck Sailing Yacht season two. He is the chief engineer and works alongside the exterior team and Captain Glenn.

Colin MacRae is a Below Deck Sailing Yacht season two cast member, and we've gathered some fun and fascinating information about his life. He is the newest chief engineer on board, working alongside the exterior team and Captain Glenn for most of the season. Colin hasn't been a part of the drama like his other crew members, but he always enjoys watching from the sidelines. Viewers can usually find Colin working in the engine room, rather than getting involved in crew politics.

Fans were introduced to Colin for the first time when he joined the Parsifal crew during the first episode of the season. Colin immediately became close with the first mate on deck Gary King (who has been called out for his lack of appeal by fans. The pair continued to have a close friendship throughout the season. He often spoke about his girlfriend back home and even opened up about his dog, who had to be put down while he was on charter. Colin may be getting the least amount of screen time, but he does have quite an interesting background.

Colin was born and raised in New Zealand but moved to Panama, where he lives on his catamaran. According to his BravoTV bio, Colin is a long-time sailor who worked as a chief engineer on superyachts. He did this for more than eight years before joining Below Deck Sailing Yacht. Before joining the show, he was living in Panama with his girlfriend Martina. They traveled in their newly-repaired catamaran. His girlfriend was someone he leaned on during his time on the show, which was filmed in Croatia. He would often call her for emotional support. She was also the one who contacted him about his dog Marty, who had to be put down after falling ill. Colin was devastated by the loss. It was heartbreaking for him that he couldn't be there for his furry friend.

Shortly after leaving the Parsifal, Colin announced on his @parlayrevival_colin Instagram that he and Martina decided to go their separate ways. It seems the pair grew apart but still have a tremendous amount of respect for one another. Before Colin joined the Bravo series, he was helping boat owners repair damage from hurricanes. He also shows the whole process on his YouTube channel, Sailing Parlay Revival. The engineer has uploaded several videos for his 139,000 subscribers and gives them an inside look into how he repairs the boats from the ground up. Colin also has a new furry friend, Lindo. He found him in a small town in Panama and decided that his other dog McFly needed a little brother.

Ten episodes of Below Deck Sailing Yacht season two are already behind us and Colin is still one of the most beloved cast members. His love for his former girlfriend and the passing of his dog made him very relatable. Now that Colin is a single man, maybe he will return to the Bravo series for season three and take part in a surprising boatmance. Fans would enjoy seeing him find new love on the show.
