Depends on whether you value placing your huge ship after enemies more than you value having a crew in your limited crew slots that will be useful for the rest of the match. If your initial placement is critical, then yes it could help. For example, if you're playing a wide playing field (where you have the long side of the 2 mats as your placement area, so you start close to foes and combat starts very quickly).

If that early placement is not critical (and it's generally not if you're playing length-wise so it takes a long time to reach your foe, allowing for lots of position shuffle), then other crew will serve you *much* better once the game starts.
