I would want the owner to pay expenses as well but Why don't we let the perpective crew to figure out their own deal , after all it is a great experience and much cheaper then using their own boat if they have one

I am sure...that your cynical attitude serves no one. I hope you can pay enough to have someone willing to spend time on a small boat with you.
