How to build an ice transporter

This is transport made of ice built on Java edition 1.21.5.

This is one of the fastest ways to travel in Minecraft. A boat can travel at immense speeds over ice, depending on the type of ice you can vary the speed at which the boat will travel.

  • Normal ice - is the slowest.

  • Packed ice - being in the middle.

  • Blue ice - being the fastest option.


For boats to get up to full speed they can require thousands of blocks of ice, so can become a very expensive way to transport around the world.

In this section we will discuss the materials and the ingredients that we need to make this build. This will give a concise list of the items and the recipe's to make them.
