Description from the author on Modrinth

This pack makes the boats and rafts rock while in water, but will stop rocking when on land or being occupied. (there are two versions, see bellow)

Rocking and Rolling Update

OG Rocking Boats

Optifine (or a cem loader mod) is required

Credit to Kreazive for making the original pack. I wanted the pack updated to 1.19 for the chest boats and bamboo rafts, so I'm posting my own version of the pack to here. I added the chest boats; made the boats move less and stop rocking when being ridden.

Works with any boat texture pack (that doesn't use a custom cem boat model)
