Reality check: 'Below Deck's' Capt. Lee Rosbach returns with new 'Deadly Waters'

ROSBACH IS BACK Capt. Lee Rosbach, who helmed the “Below Deck” yacht from the show’s inception until leaving in 2022 for health reasons, is back on the high seas, and other bodies of water, with Oxygen’s upcoming new true-crime series “Deadly Waters with Captain Lee.”

Each of the upcoming season’s eight episodes finds Rosbach, 73, hosting real-life tales of boats found abandoned at sea, likely due to piracy; passengers gone missing; and murder investigations stemming from washed-ashore bodies and other nefarious doings in rivers, lakes and open waters.

Interviews with victims’ families, boating experts and law enforcement will “uncover new evidence and disturbing revelations,” the basic-cable network says in a news release, and “expose the murky, maritime clues that sunk the perps and ultimately led to their capture.”

The show sets sail June 1.

DOWN TO THE SEA IN DRAG Tuesday at 7 p.m., fans of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” can race down to the South Street Seaport Museum's tall ship Wavertree for “Plazzy At The ‘Port!,” a night of song and dance with Plasma, a breakout star of the recent 16th season of MTV’s drag-queen competition.

Plasma aka Plasma LaRose (né Taylor Ratliff), 25, with a musical-theater degree from the University of Oklahoma, will perform nautical-themed musical numbers celebrating Broadway icons Barbra Streisand, including “Don’t Rain on May Parade,” and Northport's Patti LuPone.

Seated tickets are $30 and standing tickets $20 at SouthStreetSeaportMuseum.org/plasma. Museum members get 20% off. Advance purchase is encouraged but walk-ups will be accommodated as possible.
