Sandy told Hannah in her office: "Hannah, it's been brought to my attention that you have drugs on board."
She had asked the first mate David to be present for the meeting telling him: "So, I just need to do the procedures and the protocol, and I want you to be there for the whole thing."
It appeared in the hours before bosun Malia had texted Sandy: "I'm sorry but I have to report this."

Hannah live-tweeted last night's episode confirming the drugs were hers saying: “I like Malia’s arranging skills. So that’s prescribed Valium, CBD (which is legal in Spain), a lighter (not sure what this has to do with anything) and my passport holder...
“And for anyone who’s interested the prescription is on the other side of the box as shown,” she wrote with a picture of her Valium pharmacy box.
Hannah revealed: “She went into my cabin AFTER we had the fight about cabin arrangements…
“Then went through my handbag and took a photo of my prescribed medication and legal CBD and sent it to Sandy.”

Following last week's episode, Malia explained on Instagram how taking prescriptions and the use of other substances works on a boat.
She captioned a snap: “Let me clear the air- medical laws are different at sea and for good reason. NO crew member is allowed to self- administer drugs prescription or not while on a vessel at sea. We are CREW and always ‘on duty’ and our primary goal at sea is to ensure safety of all passengers.
"Mental health issues are a big deal and that’s why we have proper procedures in place. We all read & sign a drugs & alcohol policy before joining any boat- this is VERY CLEARLY laid out. If any crew member suffers from a mental health condition that they require medication for they must disclose that to the Captain BEFORE signing onto the boat. They then under the supervision of Captain or Officer can be given medication as needed and evaluated to see if they can still stand duty. While at sea the Captain is the medical person in charge- any and all medical decisions MUST go through them.
"Taking any sedative while on duty is completely illegal and could cost myself, the officers and Captain Sandy all of our licensing. Not to mention possible jail time and fines if an incident occurred & a crew member was found to have been on something without authorization. Reporting any incident especially one we witness is all of our job. Yachting is my career- I’m not here to worry about plot twists & TV drama- I’m here to do my job and learn how to become a Captain.
"Maritime laws are in place for a reason. All of you expressing your hate- think of it in this perspective… if an emergency was to take place in the middle of the night how would you feel if your crew (the people trained to handle the situation & keep you safe) were on drugs? There are terribly sad stories of crew losing their lives or accidents happening due to unsupervised drug use. The severity of it is why it has become Maritime Law. It’s there to protect both crew & passengers. Reporting someone shouldn’t have a negative stigma – it can save lives!"

In June, Page Six reported Hannah, was fired after her fifth season on the show.
However, she later told Entertainment Tonight that she actually quit saying: "I learned when I first started yachting in my very early 20s, you know, I would see these women who were in their late 30s, 40s, sitting at a bar, getting wasted with 20-year-olds living in a tiny cabin.
“And I was like, I don't want that,” she claimed at the time.
