Description

Acacia Boat is a wooden boat crafted from five Acacia Planks: two planks fill the side slots of the middle crafting row and three planks fill the bottom row. Acacia trees grow only in the savanna biome and its variants, so every Acacia Boat begins as wood harvested in a savanna. Acacia Boat carries two riders at once, including mobs, which cannot exit the boat on their own. A destroyed Acacia Boat drops itself as an item and goes right back on the water. Explosions, fire, lava and cactus contact destroy boats, and weapons dealing more than 4 damage break an Acacia Boat in a single hit.

On water, Acacia Boat travels at 8 blocks per second; ice raises the pace to 40 blocks per second, and blue ice pushes the speed to 72.72 blocks per second. Riding an Acacia Boat cancels all fall damage for every rider and never spends hunger. An unused Acacia Boat works as furnace fuel for 60 seconds and smelts up to 6 items. Fisherman villagers buy an Acacia Boat for one emerald. A boat plus a chest crafts the matching boat with chest for cargo runs.
