How do you go about crewing on someone's boat?

Join your local yacht club as an auxiliary member...it's cheaper than a
regular membership and is limited to the "boatless"...then find out when
they're teaching the JY 15 classes...start showing up on Wednesday nights
for the beer can races and offer to be "rail meat". Don't expect to do
anything the firs couple times out except maybe get yelled at and told to
move from side to side...watch and listen to everything that is being said
and done. Watch the kids sail their Butterflies. Better yet, go sail one
of the club's Butterflies. The more you're around, the more rides you'll
get, especially if you show some aptitude.
