  2. Place a boat inside the dispenser.
  3. Enable entity hitboxes by pressing "F3 + B".
  4. Use the lever to activate the dispenser.
  5. Look closely at where the boat comes in contact with the dispenser.
  6. Take note as to whether or not dispensed boats and rafts get stuck inside of dispensers used to place them.

Observed Behavior:

Still in 1.14.1

The problem is that the boats are being placed slightly inside the dispenser block and thus they will stay on top of the block underneath the dispenser and its two neighbouring blocks.

I think this could have happend because the hitbox of the boats did change when they reworked them (maybe...?)

Comment by Selvetus [ 29/Sep/18 ]

i attached a screenshot, this problem still exists as of 1.13.1

This is already fixed for 1.9.

Comment by Lorenzo Petrone [ 12/Jan/16 ]

I'm a bit surprised this is marked as fixed, since this is happening to me right now on 1.8.9.

The boat gets placed half stuck in the dispenser: while the boat itself isn't stuck, as soon as you jump in, you will end up with your head in the dispenser, and start suffocating…

Fix confirmed.

Comment by Commander Sealand [ 18/Nov/15 ]

As of 15w47a, boats are no longer stuck in the dispenser; they can be used, however, depending on orientation, the boat will still be placed on top of the block below it. The boat can still be used, however, as shown in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb2jBrHlIfo&feature=youtu.be

Confirmed for 15w36d

Comment by Galaxy_2Alex [ 24/Oct/14 ]

Issue is slightly resolved, however, boat is still in a block after dispensing.

Comment by [Mod] Ezekiel (ezfe) [ 26/Jul/14 ]

Is this still a concern in the latest Minecraft version 14w30c? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

Comment by The.Modificator [ 22/Jan/14 ]

Yes, it is. By the way: This bug is dependent on the orientation of the dispenser.

Comment by [Mod] Ezekiel (ezfe) [ 22/Jan/14 ]

Is this still a concern in the latest Minecraft version 14w03b? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
