In June 2017, UberBOAT launched a similar service for tourists in Croatia who wish to explore the picturesque local islands.

The on-demand speedboat service in Mumbai will provide transportation from three top coastal points – Gateway of India, Elephanta Islands and Mandwa Jetty – as a pilot project.

Riders can access two variants of speedboats based on seating capacity – 6-8 seater UberBOAT for Rs 5,700 per one-way ride and a 10-plus seater UberBOAT-XL at Rs 9,500 per one-way ride – depending on their requirements, said the official.
