Check out Boats Evolved; the fancy huge customizable boats Notch tweeted about brought to life!
A mass tweet? If organized correctly it would work rather well.
You just need a few hundred people
Well, I wish you good luck with this rex, It would be really cool if jeb decided to add this. It's been on Reddit and Getsatifaction for a while, it deserve some recognition.
I might want to try something like this as well later with A.D.D. It's a good idea if you have enough peeps to do it. Gotta get some more support before I do that though.
sounds good but complicated, how are you exactly supposed to craft them with crafting table, with a special crafting table, or something like the animator block mod. the animator block mod is awesome you make a boat any size you want and then you put the block and you control it, but this is better in some ways makes it more complex and realistic if the boat was a steamboat than you could control it with a lever that goes from left to right. though really big and compex things like the nes you were thinking are too complicated for one steve.
you could make a boat for 4-5 people but if the big boats came than it would be awesome!!!!! please notch read this thing!!!

Important Things to Know for the Unfortunate Few Without Common Sense (aka posts I've gotten a million and one times and wish to halt):
This is NOT A MOD. Yeah, I get it, it looks convincing, but if you had spent ANY time at all reading my post you'd see that I mentioned the word 'idea' about 4 times, and the word 'mod' exactly 0 times. You have no excuse for calling it a mod.
Yes, I have SEEN the Zeppelin Mod. You're just about the <insert large number here>th person to show me this. Yes, I've seen it. YES, I think it's a GREAT mod. Emphasis: mod. In my opinion, bigger boats in the stock (vanilla) Minecraft should be made of fixed entities, not blocks. I will not elaborate on this further* because I have told it to people a bunch of times already. Might I remind you that saying "There's a mod for that" is a warnable offense?
You see that little link up there? Yeah, the idea is in the link, not the OP. I've explained it rather thoroughly how the boats work. While I would love it for you to give me your two cents, this thread is not for people to make up entirely their own ideas on how the boats work.
*If people keep annoying me with the block/entity ship debate I'm gonna have to edit the OP once more.
Technically, he said the word mod at least five times...
Seems pretty cool, but I can't use the link for some reason.
Gotta blow the dust of it, but I guess I could. I'm planning on using it later when All Dem Dimensions gets popular to announce stuff, so I might as well try and get used to twitter.
Please, oh please make this a modification for Minecraft!!! If you used Forge and TurboModelThingy, you'd be able to make things just as complicated as Flan's Mod!
*EDIT* By the way, this means put me on the mass tweet list
Hey ThesaurusRex84, I know how to get more attention to this idea. Fo rone thing, the First post needs more info. I know you've got links to more info, but it would be easier if the info was here and it could help. And you seem to be able to make 3d models well, maybe in addition to the pictures you could make an animation.
As I catch up on the last few pages of comments, I can almost FEEL it as my sanity trickles away. My face is red from being palmed.

Anyways, his idea looks good. I will have to recheck the OP to see if anything changed from the last time I read it, though.
As has been said before, a mod for this to demonstrate to Mojang be would be a great idea. It will make them take this a whole lot more seriously, and prove that it's actually possible to do. I read the whole article you linked to and saw that part where you mention keeping the water out of the bottom of the boat, and I just don't think that's possible. If someone could prove it could be done in a mod, I would be amazed and definitely support this idea. Also, a mod would give people something to improve on, come up with new ideas to add onto your own, maybe make it a lot better. When you do the mass tweet, you'll be able to link to your article and the mod, and your chances of getting this idea implemented in Vanilla will greatly rise. Good luck,

EDIT: I've got a possible lead, this thread is asking for mod ideas. I would ask for you, but you would do better.
I support this but to be honest I wouldn't use it too often except in multiplayer. Lets face it there isn't much reason for water exploration currently.
Earlier I made a suggestion to make boats closer to mine carts. I now think that you could have two paths to take: the big boats you mention, and the barges and canal system I suggested. The big boats could be used almost as homes in themselves. The barge and canal system would be for simply moving resources from one place to another via water. Here was part of my idea: firstly, you could make a minecart like boat, where you can put a furnace in it, like the furnace cart. Then you could put a chest in another boat. The boats would be able to push eachother, and there would be something similar to a track to guide them, plus canal locks to raise and lower the water. If floating mechanics were added, you could simply assemble certain objects in the water and if shaped properly and made out of the correct materials, they would float.

You mean this link? I fixed it.
I have a twitter account, but I rarely use it.
