Ok i've said before that i support this idea, but this post is in response to the people that are saying that big boats won't fit in minecraft
Frankly, the ocean biomes in minecraft are massive and deep. you can fly for a full day in creative across some oceans and only find one or two small islands with no sign of the mainland.
Oceans in minecraft are big enough to support this idea so stop using it as a reason to shoot this down
I vote we put together a mod team to make this! I could do some textures, mostly human skins, but that's the extent of my skill. A team of good modders could make this in only a few weeks!
Here is my input
1. NO mod my computer doesn't run the mod softwar I will not miss out on this BEST IDEA EVER!!!
2. You did something that almost never happens... YOU CHANGED MY FORUM SIG!!!
3. This is actual feedback: This is a great idea and it has a good system for how it works and in case it hasn't been posted the ability to design flags is great. I would like to be a part of this update however Minecraft will not work for me at the moment for my computer crashe and now i am using an old slow one that barely works. But I could help you sort out all of the ideas on a wiki and I could give you these two ideas
1.New ship type corvette; These would be a ship about the size of a cog however the design would be varied. It would have a small deck with 4 cannons on the left and right on top and 2 in the front Below deck It would have a small cabin like area With glass windows on each side to sea underwater (pun intended) and although not the strongest or sturdiest it will be the fastest.
2. This is a decor feature It is the ability to paint you boat basically to do use die or block type plus "paintbrush" tool equals either a boat with colored wood or a boat made out of(these are the only blocks aloud) steel, gold, obby,glass, (other? what objects should it be?) however, this does not change what the boat is made of just makes the boat look like another block. This feature can chage one block at a time for unique designs or can just change all to make it look like a 24 karrrrhot (pun intended again (really bad joke)) galleon. This does not change the physical properties of a boat is just changes the apperance. and for the record on block of gold can make the whole boat look like gold but if you mine the boat you just get wood. Worksthat way for all designs.
So give me feedback and tell me if I can be help in any way
Anyways, i don't think it should be added. It kind of rivals the boats. If it's purely better than the boats, i don't think people will like it. I know people will dissagree with me when i say this but minecraft should be simple. A simple boat. Not something imporoved. Maybe as a mod but this shouldn't be in normal minecraft. But a iron, gold, a diamond boat would be a good idea(although gold is useless cause it's not like you can enchant and thats the only thing it's good for.)
Yep, you know, you're totally right! Let's keep Minecraft simple. I'll just go on to bed in my dirt house, with my iron sword in hand and maybe I'll go outside to punch some constantly spawning pigs. Or perhaps go into my mine and make some tools with my vast choice of iron, gold, or diamond pickaxe, because everybody knows you can fuse diamonds together with your hands to make tools with.

I know I’m doing exactly what you said people would do, but, minecraft is not a simple game and will continue to evolve into a more complex game over time, but the idea is not the simplicity but the fact that there is no story or rules, and that you are free to roam in your own world. minecraft is complex in the fact that you can use redstone, make monster traps, etc. this idea has nothing to do with getting rid of the idea of minecraft, only increases the complexity, this complexity is nothing to frown on as you can avoid it in the game. There are no rules saying that you must build a big boat. this idea should be in vanilla minecraft

No. it is simple. Think about it. Minecraft is complex but the stuff in it should remain simple to keep it that way. Think about redstone. it simply powers stuff and the fact that it's simple and has few features makes it complex. It's supposed to be simple. Why do you think you see villiges and not citys? The boats are supposed to be normal.
174 people here and 543 people on GetSatisfaction would seem to disagree with you.
Enchantments, potions, and the freaking world generator aren't exactly simple, either. Heck, potions might be more complex than this. You might be over-complicating my idea some.

ThesarusRex is right we have 3 dementions is that simple i want this to be added that may not mean much if it was just me but like he sead
717 people support this lets keep the idea alive
@ThesaurusRex84 : I hate it when people come up with the "too complex" - argument.
Especially since something that big would feel utterly ridiculous when implemented in a too simple way. I already can see the hate threads before my inner eye, "WHY IS BUILDING A BOAT SO SIMPLE; REAL BOATS TAKE ... bla."
Lion how long do you think it takes to make a house or a normal minecraft sized boat and if it was that real obsidian would take 1 hit with a stone pickaxe would break it.

(by the way, engine small boat things could possibly run on coal, like furnaced minecart)
