Everyone's talking about pickleball these days.

If you're not playing it, many of your friends are probably pestering you to try it.

But even if picking up a paddle never crossed your mind, hanging out on a yacht off the coast of Croatia probably has.

And if said yacht just so happens to feature the world's first floating pickleball court, then who are you to deny the kismet?

Lo and behold: Yacht charter company Via Croatia has just introduced a custom-built, inflatable court for unfurling on the Adriatic Sea.

The newly refurbished Aretha yacht is outfitted with 15 cabins and 12 crew, so there's room for 30 passengers and the ensuing round-robin tournament.

The court is anchored down beside the ship, so it stays steady on the water. Play a few games, gaze out to the horizon, drink a beer, take a break to race jet skis around the water... there's not much you can't do.

Because in addition to that floating pickleball court, Aretha comes fully loaded with compelling toys, like jet skis, a water slide, Seabob, wakeboard, Jacuzzis, kayaks, a pool and more.

After a rigorous day on the water (or a lazy day beside the water), relax with a movie in the on-board cinema, get a massage, or enjoy a sunset feast of freshly cooked seafood and stiff cocktails.

See? You don't hate pickleball. You just needed a yacht and some drinks to get you out there.
