How do I get count of a row in SQL

I am a beginner regarding SQL queries so I hope that someone can help me with this.

I have a table that has 2 columns that are called MID and jachtID. What I need is the count of how many of the same jachtIDS there are with different MIDS attached to them like this:

MID   jachtID
89    10
95    10
83    11

The result should look something like this:

MID   jachtID  count
89    10       2
95    10       2
83    11       1

And I need this for all of the rows I have tried using 

  SELECT count(DISTINCT jachtID) FROM table

But this just gives me 1 big number and not the result that I need.

Any help would be appreciated.

You can try the following query:

SELECT 
    T.MID,
    T.jachtID,
    jT.total
FROM table T INNER JOIN 
(
    SELECT 
    jachtID,
    COUNT(*) total
    FROM table 
    GROUP BY jachtID
)AS jT

ON T.jachtID = jT.jachtID

First get count of each jachtID by the following query:

 SELECT 
   jachtID,
   COUNT(*) total
 FROM table 
 GROUP BY jachtID

Then make an INNER JOIN between the main table and the above query and get the corresponding jatchtID count thereby.

You might be able to do this with some GROUP BY magic, but I'm not sure, since you want all the rows. Using a sub query will work, though.

SELECT 
    a.MID, 
    a.jachtID,
    (SELECT count(b.jachtID) FROM table AS b WHERE b.jachtID= a.jachtID) AS `count` 
FROM table AS a
