I did my first (brief) saltwater crewing with Alex of Giulietta, as many here are probably tired of hearing. Aside from some vagaries of the Portuguese baggage handling system, the experience was so positive that I have to keep my expectations in check that subsequent trips might be perfectly educational, but entirely "fend for yourself" affairs.
In other words, it's just as easy to be spoilt by a good experience in a well-skippered, well-maintained boat as it is to be soured by signing on with The Wreck of the Hesperus, Capt. Bligh commanding.
