Throughout the course of "Outer Banks," the Pogues spend an awful lot of time out on the water. Luckily, this was something Chase Stokes was accustomed to already. "I'm a water child. I grew up all along the eastern shore," he told Refinery29. And, just like John B., Stokes spent a majority of his childhood surfing.
In addition to riding waves on a surfboard, Stokes also knows how to drive a boat over them. In fact, he had a boater's license long before he had ever heard of "Outer Banks." "When we were in Charleston [where the show filmed,] I reached in my wallet and pulled out my boating license," he explained. "They were like 'Great, that makes everything a lot easier.'"
Even so, there was just one thing that was challenging about acting out on the water. "Learning to scuba dive, that was something I learned in a weekend in order to get the shots done," Stokes revealed to People. Hey, a weekend is still a lot more time than John B. had!
