Boats are rideable objects placed on Water used to move faster through big watermasses.

Boat Riding
Quite differently from the Minecart, boats moves accordingly to the player's will. The boat also moves significantly faster than a player on water but is slower that a Minecart. While some movements bugs are still present, it's possible to steer using the wasd keys. The boat also have movement relative to the camera so it's possible to manouver it with the mouse.

Boats cannot be placed on terrain and will be immediately destroyed upon contact with solid blocks, resulting in three blocks of wood and two sticks of leftovers. The same resources are gained when a boat is destroyed by the player.
