Ha, you don't know my wife. She gets seasick easily, doesn't want to spend day on a boat let alone 10 days. She is good for 4-6 hours on a boat if you want to go fishing but that is about it. She was perfectly happy to take me to the airport for my last trip. She is currently in Denali Nat Park riding around on a bus. I would like to see the place but have no desire to ride around in a bus for 12 hours.
As with everything that is being talked about in this thread, some things are great for some but not for others. All things in life are like that. I see no problem with what the OP wants to do. It may work perfectly well for some but not for the majority of people on ScubaBoard. c'est le vie.

I fully understand what you are saying but I believe that it does not necessarily follow that a non-diver would be miserable on a liveaboard cruise. It all depends on what the non-diver is looking for on that holiday.
A few years ago I was on a boat in the Maldives for a week and among the other guests was a German couple. The wife was a non-diver whereas her other half was an enthusiast and came on every dive. She was a stockbroker or something similar in the financial market and told me that she had a very busy and stressful job. Therefore, the week's break of relaxation - sunbathing, reading, sleeping etc came as a welcome relief for her and when we parted at the end of the trip, she appeared to have enjoyed the trip as much as her husband had, albiet for completely different reasons.
