 Description   

Up until 1.4 if a boat was hit by a stream of water it would rise. This allowed for many builds like water elevators and boat based redstone circuits. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ronO7a_XIvc for an example

As of 1.4 boats hit by a water stream will now glitch down into the ground and disappear. If you cut off the water the boat still will not appear. If you enter the block the boat was in before you hit it with a water stream, it will still be there invisible and will reappear when you collide with it.

No response for over a year.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.8.1 Prerelease 3 / Launcher version 1.5.3 or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

This still affects 1.7.10
I apologize for not updating it in the proper manner, my account was removed from JIRA so I no longer "Own" this post.
