The Real Love Boat: Jack Is Officially Back on the Market

If you love love, if you love dating shows on boats, if you love sexy singles and glam European destinations, then buckle up babes!

Where’s Bachie gone? No one knows. Instead, 10 is giving us a brand new dating show that’s essentially Love Island on a boat, and we’re not mad about it.

The Real Love Boat — inspired by the 1976 sitcom — takes place aboard the Princess Cruises ship, Regal Princess, and will see 20 Australian singles travel the seas, looking for love.

Destination dates and surprise singles will test the couples’ compatibility and chemistry. Like the beloved original scripted series, The Love Boat, the indispensable crew members will play pivotal roles in the matchmaking and navigation of the romantic (and sometimes turbulent) waters ahead.

Hosted by Darren McMullen, with Cruise Director Hannah Ferrier, Head of Entertainment Daniel Doody, and Princess Cruises’ Captain Paolo
Arrigo, our eligible Aussies will be guided through the murky waters of love as they explore Spain, Greece, France, Italy, Turkey and Montenegro.

NTB, right?

One of the babes embarking on this cruise for love is 34-year-old Jack Kane, a carpenter from New South Wales.

Originally hailing from the UK — with a cute British accent to boot — Jack is ready to go on the journey of a lifetime.

Jack has fallen in love before, and decided to stay single for awhile after his last relationship ended. Now, he’s ready to find his perfect match.

“I can offer someone real love and a lot of honesty,” he says in a press statement.

He’s big into music, with his dream date being going to Glastonbury Music Festival. In fact, his biggest deal breaker is “if they don’t like music”.

“I’m friendly, honest, wild, happy and funny,” he adds.

Will Jack find his festival-lover?

The Real Love Boat airs weekly at 8.30pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays, only on 10 and 10 Play. Miss an episode? Catch up on 10 Play on Demand.
