When I have have watched that exact crew persevere through so many incredibly shitty scenarios (groundings, ankle deep in backed up toilet water, bit by a 2 meter long barracuda in the middle of nowhere, pirates, absolutely everything breaking three times in a row, dengue fever) on that channel.
The hedonistic good times are all well and good, but no one would watch a sailing channel that was only that. The whole point is that the sunset beach party is the reward for succeeding at a difficult challenge. Challenge-and-reward is what's missing from so many lives these days.
