Tyler,
You looking to be a captain or looking for a date? We don't have a matchmaker section yet, but you can be a first (just bustin).
If you're not afraid of a little hard work and getting your feet wet, you should start with the basic and get a gig as a deckhand first. It will teach you about the biz, while letting you enjoy the harder part of yachting. The competition is a bit tough with many crew looking around, so you need to stand out a bit. Highlight anything extra, like good fisherman, can do some cooking, know a little about engines, etc. That may help you get a foot in the door.
