Appellant was properly treated as akin to a crew member who voluntarily assumed the coxswain role shortly before interception; accordingly the appropriate starting point is that of a crew member (4 years) and aggravating features related to prior arrangements and vessel deficiencies that he could not have known should not have enhanced the sentence; therefore reduce sentence on Charge 1 to 4 years and leave Charge 2 concurrent.
