Horse Transportation: Boat Tricks In Minecraft

As of 1.19.81, horses, donkeys, and mules can no longer be placed in boats in the Bedrock edition of Minecraft. However, in the Java edition, players can transport horses in boats using a variety of methods, including pushing a baby horse into the boat and then feeding it to grow into an adult, or diving underwater and right-clicking the boat from underneath.

You can no longer put a horse in a boat on Bedrock as of 1.19.81

As of the 1.19.81 update, you can no longer put a horse in a boat in Minecraft Bedrock. This is likely due to a logical decision by Mojang, as boats technically should not be able to bear the weight of a horse. However, this has been protested by players who feel that it is a major handicap, as the horse is one of the best early-game transport options.

Before the update, players could use boats to transport their horses across large bodies of water, such as lakes, rivers, or oceans. Now, players have to resort to other methods, such as using leads to tow their horses, which can be unstable and inconvenient.

The change was made in the name of "parity", bringing Minecraft Bedrock closer to Minecraft Java, which also does not allow horses in boats. While some players understand the decision, others are frustrated by the removal of a useful feature.

It is important to note that this change only affects horses, donkeys, and mules; other animals and mobs can still be placed in boats in Minecraft Bedrock. Additionally, players can craft boats with chests to transport resources and items.

You can transport a horse in a boat in the Java edition

Horses are passive mobs in Minecraft that can be ridden when tamed and saddled. They are a means of transportation in the game, allowing players to move faster and jump higher than normal. While horses can be pulled along and tied up using a lead, players may want to transport their horses over large bodies of water using boats.

In the Java edition of Minecraft, adult horses cannot be placed in boats. However, there is a workaround to transport a horse in a boat. First, ride the horse and jump into the boat. Then, dive underwater and right-click the boat from underneath. This will allow you to transport the horse in the boat.

Alternatively, you can attach a lead to the horse and tow it behind a boat. This method requires you to have a lead in your inventory, and the horse will be swimming behind the boat. Another option is to attach the lead to the boat first and then swim and pull the boat containing the horse.

It is important to note that horses cannot float on water when being controlled by a player. They can only be ridden in water up to 2 blocks deep, and in deeper water, the player will automatically be dismounted.

You can push a baby horse into a boat and then stuff it with apples to make it grow

If you want to put a horse in a boat in Minecraft, you'll need to find or breed a baby horse. You can then push the baby horse into the boat and stuff it with apples to make it grow. You can also try getting on the horse and jumping into the boat, which should make the horse take up both "seats" in the boat. If you want to pilot the boat, you can then dive underwater and right-click the boat from underneath. Alternatively, you can try getting the horse in the boat, getting on the horse, and then looking at the boat, which should allow you to get in and make the horse face sideways in the back seat.

It's worth noting that some players have reported difficulties getting horses into boats, especially in the Bedrock version of the game. As of version 1.19.81, horses, donkeys, and mules can no longer be placed in boats in Bedrock.

You can ride a horse and jump into a boat

If you're playing Minecraft on Bedrock, you can no longer get a horse into a boat as of 1.19.81. However, if you're playing on Java, there are a few methods you can try.

Firstly, you can try pushing a baby horse into the boat and then stuffing it with apples to help it grow. You can also put a chest and/or saddle on it. Alternatively, you can try riding your horse, jumping into the boat, and then diving underwater to right-click the boat from below.

Another method is to get on the horse and position it inside the boat, then look at the boat and you should be able to get in, with the horse facing sideways in the back seat. If you're struggling to get the horse in the boat, you can also try using a lead to guide it in.

Please note that adult horses cannot be put in boats or minecarts.

You can ride a horse, jump into a boat, dive underwater, and then right-click the boat from underneath the water

If you want to put a horse in a boat in Minecraft, there are a few methods you can try. Firstly, you can try pushing a baby horse or donkey into the boat and then stuffing it with apples to help it grow. You can also try trapping the boat in a 2x2 space and then using a lead to guide the horse into the boat.

However, another method that has proven successful is to ride the horse, jump into the boat, and then dive underwater. Once you are underwater, right-click the boat from underneath. This method will allow you to transport the horse in the boat. It is important to note that adult horses cannot be placed in boats or minecarts, so you may need to use a baby horse or donkey for this method as well.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully transport a horse in a boat in Minecraft.
