Boat with a Chest

In v1.9.0 Mojang added boats with chests to the game and they can be used to transport items along with a player or mob across bodies of water. This is a welcome addition to the game as before players had to make multiple trips across water bodies to transfer items from one location to another.

How to craft a Boat with Chest


To get yourself one of these you need to have a chest along with a boat already crafted beforehand. Combining the two is fairly simple. You need to place the chest and the boat anywhere in the crafting grid since no special formation is required, and you have yourself a Boat with Chest.

What are the uses of a Boat with Chest?


The inventory size of the Boat with Chest is identical to that of a single chest. You can access its inventory by interacting with the boat while sneaking (crouching). The boat can carry only one entity with the chest whereas regular boats can carry two entities. The ability to transport more items with you while traveling over water bodies is nice to have.
