I think the 'best' you can do is the way I do it. I start with a 'practice' patrol, which involves driving around the harbor for a bit of fun and then ending it. Then I use Commander to give every last one of them a job.

I guess this crew-tinkering is the big appeal of SH3 Commander. I just installed it last week and don't see what all the hubub is. It is extremely nice to be able to use it to jack the TC max up to 2000 or 4000 for long cruises.
It's also cool to see a "personnel report" for your character.
But other than that, I don't use it for much.
To me, a huge part of the draw of the game is clawing your way, patrol after patrol, to earning qualifications, ranks, and awards - as the game metes them out - trying to build a great crew that is efficient and resists fatigue. It takes about 10-15 patrols to do this. And trying to choose the right next qualification you really need vs. another one is cool also, trying to balance your crew.
If you use SH3 Commander to just dish them all out as you feel like it, it removes a big compelling part of the game for me.
