Dive Race (formerly called the White Manta) is the top choice for a lower budget liveaboard. Not a huge boat but stylishly decorated and taking normally a maximum of just 14 guests, the price is very good for a 4 day / 4 night trip to the Similan islands and Richelieu Rock. Lots of space to relax aside from the cabins, and she carries Nitrox too.
