Transfer potatoes and garlic with a large sieve to a large platter and keep hot, covered with foil. Add in corn to boiling water and cook till tender, about 5 min. Transfer corn with tongs to platter and keep hot, covered with foil.

Add in remaining crabs in same manner. Return water to a boil and cook crabs till just cooked through, about 10 min. (To determine doneness, remove a claw and crack it with the handle of a dinner knife. Use knife to extract meat from claw.)
