What is Crew Trainer?
1.
A tiller extension that is long enough to reach from the rear of the cockpit to the front of the cockpit on a sail boat. Normally used as a reenforcement tool to teach new sailors the skills they need to succeed. This is done hitting them with it while underway if they disobey an order or botch a maneuver.
