The deckhands on Below Deck Mediterranean almost always turn out to be huge divas who start drama. Season 11 features several new crew members who are bound to cause chaos. Here’s an overly extensive deep dive on the new deckhand Cooper Dawson on Below Deck Med season 11.<\/p>\n

Cooper is from South Carolina<\/h2>\n

Cooper Dawson goes by “Coop”. He was born on 13th September 2000<\/a>, so he’s 25 now. His date of birth also means he is a Virgo, and we should be afraid of him.<\/p>\n

Cooper hails from Hanahan in South Carolina. He moved to Sydney in Australia in February 2026.<\/p>\n

He’s six foot five, believe it or not.<\/p>\n

He used to be a football player<\/h2>\n

Cooper graduated from high school in 2019, then went to Syracuse University for two and a half years. He was on the football team there. Cooper then switched to Charleston Southern University, which describes<\/a> itself as a ”\u00a0friendly Christian\u00a0university“.\u00a0<\/em> Cooper then played for the Charleston Southern Buccaneers.<\/p>\n
