You can do /kit starter and craft a boat with the wood and workbench included in it, and you don't need any Features to do this. I don't think a new kit is necessary.
I would have to agree with him on this it is just as easy to just /kit starter and make several boats actually.
Then you have a bunch of stone tools, it wouldn't be a hassle to add this so, why not? It would be very handy IMO.
If you need a boat I assume you would be next to an ocean/large body of water, which is one of the most effective dumpsters for unnecessary items I can think of other than Disposal signs and lava. Just ride the boat and throw the tools to the water.
You actually make a good point(s). I am tired and don't know why I submitted this. MOD PLZ LOCK Now I need sleep.
