Nobody joined onboard. All frum Jews on the boat reserved space with us beforehand.

Did some book directly with the cruise line and then join you (prior to boarding)?

There were other Jews on our cruise and we invited them to Shabbos meals, kosher food, etc.

I guess the "other" Jews were not (yet) religious...

Indeed.
And they didn't participate in almost anything.

Just to be clear.
You think that it is OK to specifically book a kosher cruise with the intention of using their services without paying for it?
To daven with them ? Nunu
 To try to get kosher food, no

Davening costs money also... someone has to pay for the room and the expenses of bringing the Torah. It would at least be proper for someone in this situation to offer to pay a nominal fee for davening with the minyan.

its halacha when someone builds a fence he can force his neighbor to chip in since he benefits from the privacy...

Ok, so tell Kosherica to charge $50-$100 for anyone who wants to join the minyan and help pay for the cost of having the minyan. (I don't think they'd be happy with that arrangement.)

I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

could davening have a definable amount of hanaa (or any mitzvah)?

that depend on your level of observance, hence the reason why @Dan didn't bother charging those that he invited.

I wouldn't "Enjoy" a cruise with no minyan.

That halacha has many pratim, it's not that simple.
