Co-op useless at this point.

Have a friend on the Conquest with me. He hauls the net, but if he puts the fish in the box, it doesn't register. Switched to Longlines. If he hauls in the string, it doesn't register. We cruise the 7 seas, he gets no credit for miles traveled and can't operate the boat. So at this stage of the game, having Co-op isn't very useful as they are nothing but an obstruction on the deck.
NOTE: He is Tier 1, I am Tier 2. Working together doesn't work as they can't contribute to the vessel.

I have wanted them to give certificate miles for just being on a moving boat for a while because I want to walk around my ship when autopilot is on but I can't do that because I need the miles.

Not sure how hard that would be to code or if there is some balance issue with it.

On the walking around the boat issue and losing mileage points, I agree. - I wish we could have a grace period for that so that we can wall around for some five or ten minutes, maybe do some jigging head back to the cockpit and not have a mileage penalty.
Spend more that ten minutes away from the wheel and you get a warning - longer and you get docked for mileage.

Add into that, returning to port while your gutting fish. Waste of time and miles. FYI, crew mates who play with you can't see the catch in the hold or gut fish either. All they can do is just stand around.

The Co-Op is not really Co-Op yet. All they can do is help loading/unloading cargo, they do not earn anything or can not finish own missions.

Just checking. My understanding is that ALL participating players must activate the mission BEFORE getting any rewards or a mission complete will not occur for other players.
Did all players involved do this?
