Rare cr8tiv1 Posted May 29, 2021 #7 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I record episodes of the "Love Boat". I am saddened by his passing but will cherish his captain positive attitude with which he lead his crew each week. I also read his autobiography. Such a remarkable man. May his family know that he was very much loved. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garlictown Posted May 29, 2021 #21 Share Posted May 29, 2021 🚢We had the opportunity of sailing with Captain Stubing out of Southampton in 2012. This was posted on FB: 😔It is with sadness felt to the depth of the oceans that we mourn the passing of actor Gavin MacLeod, our beloved global ambassador, dearest friend, and treasured member of the Princess Cruises family for more than 35 years. From his 10 seasons starring as Captain Merrill Stubing on the hit TV show The Love Boat, and for more than 3 decades after, Gavin enthusiastically shared his passion about the joys and adventures of exploring the world while cruising. He always reminded us that, like the popular TV series, “cruising gives people something to dream about.” All of us send our heartfelt condolences to his entire family, and offer our sincerest gratitude to them for sharing Gavin with all of us for so many years. https://*****/3c4LsuN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenosha Cruiser Posted May 30, 2021 #23 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Always enjoyed watching Gavin MacLeod on Mary Tyler Moore and especially the Love Boat. He was a class act, a real star in my book! A great loss to all of us in the Princess family!!! Cheers - Ken & Darlene 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise frenzy Posted May 30, 2021 #24 Share Posted May 30, 2021 We were on the 50th Anniversary cruise, Pacific Princess, in 2015. Gavin and his wife Patty were seated at the Captain’s table for the Most Traveled Luncheon. We were fortunate to sit at his table and get to know this lovely couple. A very special day!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike A Posted May 30, 2021 #25 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Gavin MacLeod was a star on 2 of the most popular shows of the 70’s and 80’s. Captain Subing on The Love Boat and Murray on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. In the 60’s he was also a sailor on McHales Navy. No one was a better spokesman for crusing and Princess Cruise Lines. RIP Captain Stubing 🙏 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
