I see lots of posts but not so many people joining in game so here's how to do so:
First type this:

You'll see this:

That's everyone who is on in crew, pick one at random and send them a /tell, if they aren't an O (officer) they will likely contact one for you. If they don't respond pick another name.

Assuming you received a response you'll find this:


Click the Accept button.

You're now on a boat:

So, a few hours earlier I was looking on the jobbing board for something to do. Something caught my eye. The offer said something about vikings, I was intrigued and hopped on.
3.5 hours and 22 islands of viking genocide later:


The trinkets and PoE are all from the trip, the doubloons are (obviously) not.
Woop woop, time to get a sloop.

Sorry about earlier today, both officers were on the same Haunted Seas run and unable to do full memberships.

I'll be on for most of the rest of the night, though, so send me another tell if you get back on and I'll try not to be busy. No guarantees though.
