Well, of course. You need a crew for the ship to reach Ithaca. And you can't have a crew of only captains :)

This proposition that somehow everybody can reach Ithaca, is simply a faith based pyramid scheme. You may end up being the captain or you may end up being in the crew. If you do the numbers I think it's quite clear which one is more probable.
