Sizes and quality

The Boat render is 128 × 128 pixels, the size the game draws the item at in the inventory. It scales up by whole numbers to 1024 px with no interpolation, so the edges stay sharp.

Minecraft boats: types, recipe and tricks

The boat is a vehicle for water and, at high speed, any kind of ice. There are 11 types, one for each Overworld wood, counting the bamboo raft. Crimson and warped planks from the Nether do not work. It is crafted from five planks in a U shape, and every type also comes in a chest version.

It seats two: you and another player or a mob. Most mobs climb in on their own when they pass nearby, and once inside they cannot steer or get out, so a boat is a handy way to move a villager or trap a mob without a fight.

To pick it up, hit it until it drops as an item; any hit of 4 damage or more breaks it at once, and in Java any axe breaks it instantly. You get out by sneaking and land in the direction you are looking.

In Java it cannot travel up a waterfall, so people lift boats with soul sand bubble columns or piston elevators. As fuel, one boat smelts six items in a furnace.

On racing or ice video thumbnails, a boat in motion reads instantly.
