As you drive onto the bridge, the trafic snakes out in front of you in what looks like an hour’s long commute from Hell, you gaze at the water below. There are people on boats. How to people get to be on boats when you have to sit in this?

Do they own the boats? Are they all rich? Is riding across this body of water on a boat a thing normal people like me can aspire to?

Yeah, it’s not that hard, actually. You can call a boat the same way you call an Uber. Except not with the Uber app. Use Boatsetter.

You don’t have to know a thing about sailing or operating a boat. You can request that the boat come with a captain!

But if you are a boaty type and, just now, can’t find a way to own a boat, this will work for you, too.
