What's your ideal starship and crew?

Ship: Refit Enterprise (TMP/TWOK)
Captain: James Tiberius Kirk
All other positions would simultaneously be filled by Brian Brophy. Not Bruce Maddox...the actor Brian Brophy.

Because duh!

If Rios is capable of working in several different positions, so is Brophy!
 
Enterprise XCV-330 (I think I am bound by honor to pick it)
retrofitted with DASH drive.

Ephraim as DASH drive navigator
She was a Starfleet officer in another universe, according to a recent book.

Captain: Hernandez as captain. she's closer in time to that ship's era, and might know it better. Also she's hot.

Helm and Ops: Detmer and Owo. they work well together. Also they're hot.

Bridge officer: Burnham. She's going to find a way into the plot, anyway. Also hot.

Science Office: Tilly. reasons. Look I'm not going to explain them all.

XO: Saavik. She knows the regs, and is good at telling people that other people are dead.

Security Officer: Nhan. yum.

Ship's Counselor: Ezri Dax. I'm just basically going with a theme by this point. Don't judge me.

Tactical Officer: Kira. Served aboard Defiant in wartime. Good enough.

Coms: Hoshi. Uhura might be as good a comms officer, but the existance of Hoshi would throw more than one mirror universe empress off their tracks if they encountered her.

CMO: Crusher.

Engineering: Brahms

Chef: a Gorn. When someone demands to know when supper will be ready they can reply that they shall be merciful and qwiiikkk and then hang up on them.

All great choices. Using a DASH drive too bold move.
 
I like Riker as Captain, Kirk as first officer and Bashir as ship’s counsel to start. At tactical I like Curzon DAX and CMO, classical with McCoy. As for communications and Chief engineer, I’d go with Data and Geordi respectively. Helm? Nog just for a bit of versatility.
 
Ship: USS Aventine

CO: Jadzia Dax. Ezri commanded the Aventine in the novels. However I always felt Jadzia showed great command potential when she was in charge of the Defiant during Sisko's secondment. Also I wish that instead of killing Jadzia off, Berman had agreed to Terry Farrell's request to become a recurring character by making her get a first officers position on a ship somewhere.
First officer: Data. I think he and Dax would make an interesting combination
Science Officer: Saru
Tactical: Michael Burnham
Operations: Miles O'brien
Engineering: Jett Reno/Stamets because I love these two together
Helm: Sylvia Tilly
Medical: Hugh Culber as CMO and a EMH mark 1 to back him up
Civilian consultant: Seven of Nine

Characters like Owo, Airiam and Detmer etc.. would fill out the background bridge positions.
 
I'd like to see the underserved, misused, or otherwise minor characters from each incarnation given more, better, or more suitable material:

TOS Uhura
TAS M'Ress or Arex
TOSM Saratoga Captain
TNG Beverly
TNGM Defiant Helmsman, Perim, or Hawke
DS9 Jadzia (I preferred her as the mysterious Old Man of earlier seasons)
VOY Chakotay (Because Kim will never get his)
ENT Mayweather
Kelvin Robau or Alnschloss
DSC Linus or one of the Osnulluses
ShrtTrks Tardigrade
PIC Elnor

Ship's cook: Narek.

Mission: to fly into the nearest star after dousing the whole ship in oil. For aerodynamism.

The thought of this as my crew's ship did cross my mind, as did a Vor 'cha, a Galaxy, and a Defiant. But my ship and crew is more or less DS9 on a starship anyways with TNG's integrity and optimism added, so it seemed a bit redundant.

I also did think of adding Ishara to my crew, as well as Spock, M'Ress, Jake Sisko, K'Ehlyar, Dr. Leah Brahms and Barclay, and the Wildmans. It just felt like my main crew was getting way too crowded or they wouldn't fit in, so I stopped.
