#!?+@*! isn't a word, so that's definitely not the last word

Factor often forgotten ...
Skippers are there not only to make right decisions .... BUt alos to be the only decision maker - so that if it goes wrong - you know why.
If you do by committee / discussion - a) it takes too long, b) proportional representation never works, c) the compromise is often worse than wrong, d) what do you do when it all goes balls-up ?? Who decides then ??????
Grit yer teeth, stamp yer feet and say after me ....."It's my bl...y boat and this is what we do ...... now where's the beer ....."

On that point, I have to correct you. The successful units of he german army, lets call it what they were, the SS, selected a leader according to his skill for the task at hand. If a cliff had to be taken, a mountaineer got choosen as a leader, but a leader they always had.
And as far as hirachical construct, I would reccommend to read, THE GAMES PEOPLE PLAY, and THE HUMAN ZOO BY DESMOND MORRIS.
A boat, like it or not, is the last place for democracy. Imagine a ship of Nelsons fleet running on democracy?, they would first have a couple of years to decide the name of each line on the ship, and once they have agreed on that, to get them to sail on democracy, would be impossible. A square rigger like the Cutty Sark took an hour to tack 90 degrees, but on clear commands, not on demeocracy.
