<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">ship's staff</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for crew that I've seen before include "band" , "Men on board" , "eight, say" , "A kind of short cut" , "Staff of boat" .)
