Men said to take part in a cruise (4)

I believe the answer is:

crew

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'men' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for crew that I've seen before include "Shipping company - boasted" , "Very short haircut for the ship's complement" , "Team who man a ship" , "band" , "Ship's or aircraft's staff" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
