New 'AirBnB For Boats' Will Make You Yacht Captain For The Night

If you'd like to gain your sea legs on your next vacation, try booking with Beds on Board, the new "AirBnb for boats."

The company started after co-founders Sir Peter Ogden and Jason Ludlow were trying to find a place to stay in Palma, Majorca last year.

"All hotels had been booked up and people were eager to find accommodation," fellow co-founder Tim Ludlow told MailOnline Travel. "Peter turned and began asking people, 'What can you do with all the empty boats in the marina?" The company launched shortly after.

Currently, Beds on Board operates in three main areas: the United Kingdom, the Caribbean and Europe. Up to 10 guests can room together, though prices and accommodation vary per vessel. One small downside: guests are not actually allowed to take the boats out for a cruise because of licensing and liability issues.

But guests will get the incredible opportunity to kind of "captain" their own boat, and some of those boats are 75-foot yachts with flat-screen TVs and other insane amenities. Guest will also surely enjoy the pleasure of saying this from the bow:
