Heard of Captain's Cribbage and Crash Cribbage. Anyone have actual rules?

Captain's Cribbage and Crash Cribbage

We played a shipboard version where the crib rotates every hand and the starter belongs to the captain.

Crash Cribbage might be the one where you throw cards fast and only score pegging. I am not sure.

Variants list mentions Captain's Cribbage but details are sparse. Might be local house rules.

I have a rule sheet that says Captain deals and keeps crib every hand, but scores only half.

Sounds like a novelty format. If you find the original rules, share a scan.

Crash could mean no crib and only pegging to 61. We did that at a camp once.

Maybe crash = lowest score wins? Name fits lowball too.

Thanks all. If I track down a rules card, I will post.

Please do. Variants are hard to pin down without a scan.
