i agree, i really wanna siege sahara in a dreadnought

Build a port.

why would you need boats on land >->
(apart for the redundant iceboat travel method)

By BOAT I didn't met movecraft also apart from iceboat travel nothing its just cool to make it in tunnels.

also kingstanchez why not?

It's just annoying when u can't trap mobs and things like that

I made a yacht and wanted to put vanilla boats in the back but I couldn't put them on land

it was more then likely disabled due to people using it to glitch up walls at sieges

Land boats are disabled because of their absurd interaction with ice.

Boats are boats, not cars. Boats go in water.
