I do it regularly on a 514PC powercat...you have to get people that are boat worthy and helpful. one bad person ruins the whole trip. Trust me. If bareboating you need 2 people designated to help you that you can count on

When I give my captains briefing before we go always repeat Rule #1 This is not an f'n democracy on this boat. Rule #2 everybody does a little so nobody does a lot

I send the boat rules in advance but it works great if ALL the crew listens. I actually prefer 9 college kids over 9 guys on a guys trip...
