 Description   

Boats don't Float to the surface if spawned 2 or more blocks under water. Such a boat sits there or sinks to the bottom. The player can't ride these underwater boats. The player can get in the boat but is immediately removed from it. The message "Slow down to exit the boat" appears and fades away slowly, but the paddling controls and the "Leave the Boat" button transition out so quickly it's nearly impossible to notice them.

This is a design feature and not a bug. Boats will sink after going under water, and you have to remove and place it again.

Hello moderators / Mojang
I have a little question: unlike the PC version, the boat does't erase the snow when in land
Thank you

Jason, I've updated your ticket to relate just to the underwater boat issue. The boats on land have already been reported in MCPE-8478 and works as intended.
