Sharp mind, eyes, and quick reflexes will help you to board passengers, embark on voyages, tend ropes, lines, sails, and/or motor(s), clear the decks, swab the decks, stow anything properly where everyone can find it, deliver messages to/from anyone else on board, follow Captain's orders (to the letter, preferably) watch for other vessels or sailing dangers (there are many), listen and relay radio messages, paint the boat/ship while it is moving, dock the craft & disembark passengers. Smile. Direct further questions to the Captain.
