Pick the Right Wood Boat to Match Your Build's Colors

This pack gives each wood variant its own design and color scheme. Which planks you craft a boat from now changes how the sailing ship looks. You can use that to match a boat to the builds around it.

Making a set of variants to compare

1. Collect planks from several wood types you have access to.

2. Craft one boat from each type. The vanilla recipe still applies: five planks of a single wood in a U shape on the crafting table.

3. Carry them to a stretch of calm water next to a sandy shore.

4. Place the boats side by side along the shoreline so you can compare hulls, sails and trim directly.

Choosing for your build

  • Port settlements and docks: stand on your pier and look at each boat against your planks, logs and roofing. Keep the variant whose hull tones blend best with the dock wood.
  • Kingdom harbors: pick a variant whose sail and hull colors complement your castle or town palette. Use the same type for the whole fleet so it looks like one navy.
  • Long ocean journeys: choose the design you enjoy looking at. You will be staring at its sail for a long time.

Take screenshots of the lineup with F2 so you can remember which wood gave which look before you break the extras.
