Simple Boats
Simple Boats adds new powered boats that supplement the vanilla boats for long-range ocean travel. Just get in, unfurl the sail or start the motor, and go. No constant rowing required. Simple as.
Available in all vanilla wood variants!
Sailboat
The humble sailboat brings you at a respectable 10 blocks per second, all while having a large capacity to carry your friends—or some unfortunate villagers for your trading hall.
Motorboat
Need to go faster? The motorboat has you covered. Equipped with a powerful motor capable of zipping along at an eye-watering 12 blocks per second, with the same capacity the sailboat offers for a few more resources to craft.
