Robert Geiss Explodes at Skipper Over Botched Dubai Docking During 15-Year TV Jubilee

The scene features prominently in RTLZWEI’s anniversary special, set for January 12 with early access on RTL+.

Overview

  • A replacement captain struggled to berth the 40‑meter Indigo Star in Dubai’s Heart of Europe, repeatedly overshooting and edging dangerously close to the pier.
  • Robert Geiss threatened to throw the skipper off the boat and accused him of driving “like a child,” as the confrontation was captured on camera.
  • Family members reacted with alarm, with Davina describing fear of damage and Robert ordering Shania away from the bow for safety.
  • Carmen Geiss questioned the skipper’s qualifications on camera, and grandfather Reinhold was on hand as tensions rose before the celebration.
  • Despite the incident, the jubilee party went ahead to the family’s satisfaction, and the Geissens emphasize they are not retiring as RTLZWEI readies a January 12 primetime special.
