Febrina Liveaboard Review - Expert Guide to Choosing Your Liveaboard

Russell Bowyer here. I've written this Febrina Liveaboard review to help you choose the right liveaboard with confidence. As a qualified diving instructor and Advanced BSAC Diver with 500+ dives worldwide, I've helped countless divers pick their perfect liveaboard - whether it's your first time liveaboard or you're an experienced diver seeking your next adventure.

Read more about Russell's diving experience

My diving experience spans cold-water UK drysuit dives, warm coral reefs in the Caribbean, the Red Sea, the Great Barrier Reef, and South Africa. As a former BSAC Diving Officer, I've led dive training and operations. I've logged every type of dive: decompression stop deep dives, wreck dives, shark dives, night dives, drift dives, and everything in between. This hands-on experience means I know exactly what makes a great liveaboard experience, having dived from liveaboards myself and loved it. This is why I came up with the SDE Liveaboard Rating* to help you choose the best liveaboard for you.

Quick Febrina Review Navigation

The light blue navigation links below show the SDE Liveaboard Rating scores for each feature section for the Febrina Liveaboard (e.g. "Boat Features 6/10"). Each category can score up to 10 points based on its onboard features. These scores are added together to calculate the overall Febrina Liveaboard SDE Liveaboard Rating of 56% shown below.

*How SDE Liveaboard Rating works for the Febrina Liveaboard: 56%

The SDE Liveaboard Rating for the Febrina liveaboard works by taking the six individual SDE Liveaboard Rating scores, with each one being scored out of 10 and then adding them together. For the Febrina liveaboard are ( [Boat:6/10] + [Cabin:5/10] + [Diving:8/10]+ [Food:7/10] + [Drinks:7/10] + [Non-diver:1/10] = 34/60). This total is compared to the maximum possible score of 60/60 to turn it into an overall percentage – which for the Febrina liveaboard is calculated as 34/60 = 56% SDE Liveaboard Rating.

This makes it easy to compare different liveaboards at a glance. See a more detailed explanation of how SDE Liveaboard Rating works together with all dive liveaboards ranked by SDE Liveaboard Rating .

All liveaboard reviews on this site are written based on my real diving experience, from hundreds of dives across reefs, wreck dives, shark dives, deep dives, night dives and drysuit diving.

I’ve cold water dived in the UK, warm water dived from many of the Caribbean islands, dived both the east and west coasts of Australia, the Red Sea, South Africa and dived the east and west coasts of the USA, and I’ve also spent time and enjoyed diving from liveaboards myself too.
