UBER FLOATS: The speed boats will be capable of transporting between six and eight passengers at a time.

The group has launched UberBoat, a private ferry service, in the Turkish city -- where it has had a presence for one year. It has teamed up with sea transport company Navette on the project.

The speed boats will be capable of transporting between six and eight passengers at a time, using the Bosphorus instead of the road. Users will be able to order a boat by checking the vehicle menu on the standard app. — AFP Relaxnews
