The Real Love Boat: Is Third Time a Charm for Daniel?

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 25-year-old Daniel Goodburn, a distillery manager from the Gold Coast.

Having been in two relationships in the past, Daniel ready for the next stage in his love life.

“I’ve got lots to offer someone, including the service of being a big, tall man,” he says in a press statement.

“I can reach things in high places, am a go-to jar opener and can break out into spontaneous interpretive dance routines whenever the mood arises.”

He describes himself as loyal, honest, funny, energetic and kind, and he is looking for someone who holds similar qualities. He would love a partner who is driven, patient and family oriented.

“I just haven’t come across the right person yet,” he says.

“I like making the most out of my life. But most importantly, I want everyone around me to make the most of and enjoy their lives too.”

Honestly, he sounds like a catch. Not to mention that he has the best toothy grin I’ve ever seen.

But will Daniel find his dream girl?

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.
