The BathTub Boat

Another water vehicle returns from a long long time ago in A20.

Brand New Experimental Physics ‘Work in progress’ Bathtub version 5.
(There were no updates that worked well enough in A21 for a release but the Bath Tub returns in V1 Series with major physics updates and has some new options).

Launch

Place the Bath Tub on/in water in a ‘shallow water’ area that has fairly flat ground underneath, if you have no shallow water in your map then build a small launch dock using standard blocks, add some fuel to the Bath Tub and off you go.
The Bath Tub will not work on land (It may move very very slightly due to Motor torque but will have no steering or control over direction)

Controls

Standard WASD controls for this version as it is based on the motorcycle and the Bath Tub can now be steered with the mouse like a standard vehicle.
S will act as brake and spacebar will anchor the Bath Tub.

Crafting

The bathtub boat is craftable early game in the standard vanilla workbench with no unlock progression needed at the cost of a lot of resources by creating the required assemblies to build it.

If anyone wants to change the recipes and build methods then please do so but let Ragsy know how you improved it.
