* 1 at the helm

* 2 on cannons

* 5 to repair (some are always lazy - so we need surplus)

* 3 to serve rhum, coffee, tea or otherwise

* 2 runners to supply gunpowder, cannonballs and to tp to get ammo
(we need the two gunners constantly) - and it's very elegant if they get
the ammo from the enemies island so we shoot them with their own
ammo !

* 1 to feed the parrot on the capt's shoulder (otherwise it might yell
profanities and give away our position if we sneak up behind an enemy:
"Gimme crackers or i'll go on strike" - something like that)

* 2 to have a drink on the deck showing the enemy how superiour we are
being able to have time doing drinks on the deck

* 4 lookouts - one in front, one in back, one on top of mast - and especially
one looking down beneath the surface (the enemy might be smart:
Turned into ghosts and coming up from beneath.
Problem is that this lookout have trained holding breath for several hours

* 3 Mocking and taunting the enemy (hmm make it 2 so we can save some
food supply) - one in front to mock the runners - one in back to distract their
front gunners so they miss

* 1 just standin on the deck doing NOTHING - i always see people on my or
an enemy ship just being decorative ! (so it must be a rule to have such crew)

* 1 standing behind the captain to prevent noobs from taking the helm when
the captain let go for repairs. It ALWAYS happens so i think this one is
essential !!!

* 25 not to forget ... to dive - swim - and carry the baththub if the enemy
manage to remove all the planks needed to keep the bathtub afloat

all in all = 50.

* The only problem is time. Considering how long it takes to gather people
for a simple task as doing the Boss - i think it will be an impossible mission
... that's why i always sail alone *rofl*
