Boat With Chest: Shipping goods across the sea now made possible with the boat with chest! Also, it would make the item in my previous idea more useful. But how do we craft a boat with a chest? You put 1 chest on top of the boat in the crafting area.
Powered boat: The powered boat is 38% faster than the regular boat. But with great power, comes great responsibility. That is why there are 4 different types of encrusted powered boats for making sure that your boat doesn't break so easily, also for aesthetics. And all the powered boats are encrusted. Here are the stats for the powered boat damage reduction of each variant: Iron encrusted powered boat: reduces damage by 60%. Gold encrusted powered boat: reduces damage by 44%. Diamond encrusted powered boat: reduces damage by 80%. Emerald encrusted powered boat: reduces damage by 75%.
Encrusted boats: If you're concerned about the flimsy boats we have now, then these are the boats for you! Same options as the encrusted boats, same damage reduction, same design, except they're not... powered. Also, their crafting recipes are the same as the encrusted powered boats, minus the redstone, which is what powers the powered boats.

Minecraft is not medieval-themed!!! As a matter of fact, it doesn't have a set time. And when and WHY did putting reponses in the quote, especially long ones, become a trend in the Suggestions? It's rather inconvenient, mainly since the OP has to gather your quote up manually. Avatar made by Endergirl!
I can see how the boat with chest can be useful, but what will we do with it? Are we just gonna walk into it and hope it gets pushed in the direction we want?
The powered boat sounds too fast. In fact, any powered vehicle suggested for Minecraft is generally seen as unfitting. The encrusted boats seem alright, but the powered one sounds like a blocky jet-ski.

Okay, I guess that's a little too much power coming from 4 redstone dust. We could hook the boat with chest up to a boat/powered boat with the hitches in my previous suggestion, and sail away with the goods inside the boat with chest..

This is a somewhat modified quote from Shadik himself: Nothing "fits" in the game. This is the game that decides to pay attention to gravity for half its elements, but not all of them. This is the game where a bush with a face runs at you and explodes. This is the game where you can ride on a pig, kill people by hitting them in the face with feathers, create portals to other dimensions...and that's the most normal of it.
Don't try to tell me if something "fits" or is "realistic" in a nonsensical game about punching trees.
You could make Powered Boats be made with a Furnace (similarly to minecarts), but those only have furnaces and nowhere to sit. To accommodate for that you can craft 'longboats' which have 2 slots. Longboats can fit 2 people, a person and a furnace (powered), or a person and a chest (storage). Lonboats with 2 players are 20% slower, a powered longboat (with player) is 15% faster, and a player with chest (filled or not) are 5-10% slower.
Also, there is another thread that suggests boat life (similar to horse life) and paddles to manually increase speed, and the two threads put together could potentially be a fitting overhaul for boats.
If you were to combine the too, the speed boosts given by paddles could be added onto the speed boost given by furnaces in boats (longboats more likely), and encrusted boats would have more 'boat life' than others
Default- 5 'lives' & default speed
Iron- 8 'lives' & 8% speed loss
Gold- 6 'lives' & 10% speed boost (to make up for the lower life)
Diamond- 12 'lives' & 5% speed loss
Emerald- 10 'lives' & 4% speed boost (rarer than diamond, but lower 'life' compensation)
Obsidian(?)- 14-15 'lives' (?) & fireproof
You would also be able to add furnaces to encrusted boats and make them longboat (longboats add +3 to all the life values given above). So it is possible to have a Gold Powered Longboat w/ a Diamond Paddle for a total of a (10%+15%+35%) 60% speed boost!
I would also like to request to use your idea for 'encrusted' boats in my mod I am developing (I am asking because I have permission to use the other thread linked above and these two together could be an amazing addition!).
Hey, I recall you asking a ton of people if you could use their suggestions for a mod you were making. Is it out yet?
Sadly, neither I nor my dev team have had the time to work on content for the mod, and while I try to get something done here or there, with the holidays coming up and school and whatnot, it may be a bit before a release with a suitable amount of content to be catch eyes and have people waiting for the next update. That may be true, but I can promise to you and anyone reading this that the wait will be worth it!
What about the encrusted boats make it slower? The gold one 20% slower, the emerald one 10% slower and the diamond one 5% slower?
That would be pretty realistic, but (in my opinion) a little annoying. It wouldn't be that much of an annoyance, since the increase in slowness is minor.

Have you played Minecraft? The game where you get chased by explosive bushes, can create portals to other dimensions from a material harder than diamond, that in real life is as fragile as glass. The one where 85% of all blocks defy gravity, and you can change pigs into zombified, bipedal, sword-wielding of themselves that live in what is basically hell. The one where you can brew potions that let you breath underwater and be impervious to fire, and have one-eyed, laser beam-shooting pufferfish that guard massive underwater monuments to who know what.
I think I made my point that not everything in Minecraft needs to be realistic, and again as I said, it would help balance the fact that gold is rarer, and doesn't have that much strength, and in real life is actually quite light. Not to mention the fact that Diamond and Gold Boats in themselves are very unrealistic as well.
Because Minecraft is realistic.
Please explain why Skeletons are jumping out of my closet then... I'm kidding. But not about the skeletons jumping out of my closet thing...

You can use the pic if you want.
Is that an edited image or some command block trickery?
That is a pretty good idea, but gold should be one of the fastest (if it doesn't give a slight speed boost for it having lower durability)
That would be pretty realistic, but (in my opinion) a little annoying. It wouldn't be that much of an annoyance, since the increase in slowness is minor.

Try it out for yourself:
/summon MinecartChest ~ ~1 ~ {CustomDisplayTile:1,DisplayTile:chest,DisplayOffset:85}
Well I'll be damned, that is some creative thinking right there!
It wouldn't really be realistic though.
