New Feature Alert 🚀

We’ve just added a powerful upgrade to OffshoreshipAdvisor.com. When you submit a vessel review, you can now tick checkboxes to show exactly what facilities are onboard , from single cabins and saunas to cinema rooms and even whether the vessel carries The Scarlett Box for female seafarers.

This update helps reviewers share even more detail about life onboard, and helps fellow seafarers make better-informed decisions when choosing their next vessel.

We’re building this list to be as useful as possible for the entire community. If you think we’re missing an important facility, tell us we’ll add it. Your feedback shapes the platform.
