Uber has taken the taxi industry by storm, and now it wants to have a go at boat transport too.
Per a blog post from the company, the UberBoat was launched on the one year anniversary of Uber arriving in Turkey.
Uber partnered with luxury sea transport company Navette to make UberBoat a reality.
The UberBoats cross the Bosphorus strait, a body of water in Instanbul.
The UberBoat works in a similar way to the on-land vehicle, when you’re at the seaside, selected UberBoat and if there’s a boat available nearby it will come pick you up.
Generally the boats available will be similar to a speedboat, with a capacity of six to eight people.
