How to Build a Yacht in Minecraft

There are many ways to modernize our Minecraft worlds. We do not have to stick to the medieval-ish theme each of them has with its generated structures.

Instead we can take up our blocks and make a whole futuristic world that may better suit our needs. It is just a matter of picking the right way to do this.

Now, of course, if we are modernizing Minecraft, we want to treat ourselves to the best luxuries that we can, and what is a bigger luxury than owning your very own private yacht to sail the seas with?

Getting Started on the Build

Before you start building your yacht you will first want to pick out the right materials for this kind of build. Unlike our ship builds, a yacht is never going to be made entirely out of wood or similar materials like that.

Yacht’s are known for being pearly white, slick, and smooth so they can show luxury and wealth.

The best set of materials you can turn to for this kind of build would be quartz and terracotta blocks.

Quartz blocks are clean white and smooth. They also have slab and stair varieties to them which greatly aid in building a proper shape for this ship.

Other blocks you could choose are andesite and diorite as well as their polished versions.

It would also be good to look at real life yachts for inspiration and to get an idea on how to build one.

Finally, if you have your blocks picked out and feel ready, it is time to find the spot where to build. Building it at a dock allows you to easily access your yacht, but it can prove to be difficult fitting it into an already existing build. You may need to compromise on size and details.

Building it out on the open waters may be a much better idea. It also allows you to build a dock within the yacht for your boats as you sail to it!

For this kind of build it is better to build it bigger than smaller, because that will make it much easier.

Building a Yacht Frame

Just like when building a ship, it is useful to build a frame for your yacht first.

Start by building a straight line with your chosen blocks (mine are cyan terracotta) to determine how long your yacht will be.

For the ship build we usually built ribs to help shape the lower deck of the build, but luckily for us a yacht can be completely flat on the bottom. This particular yacht will also include a dock for regular small boats in the back.

In the image below you can see the layout of our yacht’s lower deck. The lower deck is 21 blocks long (not including the nose of the yacht) and 9 blocks wide.

Now, we build our yacht from the bottom up.

I will add an extra line of cyan terracotta above the original frame, just so that it is visible from above water, before building all the walls from smooth quartz.

I will also be adding windows along the terracotta line. It is best advised to keep windows symmetrical on both sides on each level of the yacht.

The walls will be 3 blocks tall in total for the lower deck, with inside walls separating the space into several rooms. Decorate these as you wish and need.

The very back of the yacht will be where we will include a boat dock for all those arriving by smaller vessels as well as two staircases leading up to the upper deck.

Building the Upper Deck

The upper deck will be just a tiny bit shorter than the lower one and it will include an outdoor area and an indoor area, meant for the steering wheel and where the captain would spend the most time.

From the staircases to the end, the wooden part of the upper deck is 16 blocks long.

Though, we also cannot forget a pointed nose for the dock that extends past the deck.

Now we get to build the cabin with the steering wheel in it.

The front of the cabin will be all window, so we will build it out of glass blocks. There will also be 2 windows on each side as well; one is 2 blocks wide and the other just 1.

This is how the wall layout will look like for the cabin. It will be only 2 and a half blocks tall.

The ceiling we will sculpt using smooth quartz stairs and slabs, just to keep the height low. The stairs and slabs will also help make the slope of the ceiling look smooth.

We then add is slabs around the front window of the cabin.

The final detail we will include in the construction of the yacht will be the little “wings” at the back, just to break up the shape a little bit.

with that the main construction of our yacht is done!

Adding Details and Decoration

Every build can have details added to it to help shape it or to help smooth out its shape.

The best way to do this is by using stairs on the front of the ship to make the yacht look more slick and pretty. You saw that while we were shaping the ship up a little earlier.

The next thing that we would have to do is, of course, furnishing out yacht. We need a place to seat ourselves and our guests, as well as some for of living quarters.

The lower deck has enough room for a living area and kitchen. The small room beside it is good for storage, while the two rooms at the very entrance can be used as bedrooms!

Give your guests a bed with an ocean view.

I particularly enjoy designing small and cozy kitchens like these. End Rods, if you have any to spare, look amazing as tube lights above your kitchen countertop.

The little corner we left open is good for shelving or to serve as a fridge, as you can see in the image below.

The top deck will have regular outdoor seating. The chairs I will make using my furniture building techniques, as well as the little outdoor table.

Inside the top deck cabin I will include some more seating and a steering wheel.

With that, your yacht should be done and ready for a party!

Tips For Building A Yacht In Minecraft Survival

• Derek Alexander

Building a yacht in Minecraft survival mode can be a complex time-consuming and engaging task that challenges players’ creativity and ingenuity. To start the building project, players need to gather essential resources such as wood, wool, and iron, which they can use to craft tools and more materials of their desire to create the structure and components for the design of the yacht details. A crafting table is also necessary to make various items and components to decorate the interior of the yacht. The recommended materials to use for building the structure of a yacht are concrete or quartz, however, players can choose whatever building material they desire.

While building the yacht in Minecraft survival, players should be prepared to face challenges such as hostile mobs in the area and environmental hazards such as lightning. In the water, players can encounter drowned mobs. It’s good to have enough resources and be prepared to defend against threats.

When starting a build over a body of water in Minecraft, an easy way to start building the structure of the yacht without having to place the first block on the seabed is to use a lilypad. Players can place a lilypad on the surface of the water which allows the placement of a block on top. Once you place the block on the top of the lilypad you can then remove the lilypad and begin the build.

The hull is the foundation of the yacht, and players can use a range of materials, however, the common materials are concrete and quartz. When building the hull of the yacht it is important to ensure that the hull has a streamlined shape and symmetry to create a realistic aesthetic design. Players can also add sails made of wool and a mast made of spruce or birch wood to make the yacht look more authentic, however, if players decide to have a more modern yacht design without the sails they can add details that add to that aesthetic. The flooring inside a yacht can be comprised of any materials a player desires, however, using common and easy-to-obtain materials such as oak or birch wood planks also look great.

Apart from the hull or sails, players can add other elements to their yacht such as a cabin, bedrooms, a control panel with creative thinking using existing items like Redstone items, and even an anchor to the yacht. The cabin can be made of different materials, such as oak or dark oak wood planks, or even quartz and concrete. The yacht can be decorated with windows and doors made of glass panes. Crafting and placing the furnace in the captain’s quarter is a good design option for the captain’s control panel. The captain’s controls can be decorated with buttons, Redstone switches, or even tripwire hooks that can enhance the aesthetic.

Players can also use iron blocks to make the anchor. Iron ingots can also be utilized to create iron gates that can be incorporated into the aesthetic of the design. Iron can also be used to craft a minecart which can be used as a seating position in front of the steering wheel or control panel which can become the captain’s quarters of the yacht.

Building a yacht in Minecraft survival is a time-consuming task that requires patience and attention to detail. For some players, realism is important and for those types of builders it is essential to create a realistic design that includes lifeboats, however, every player can design and build a yacht in whichever way they desire. Players can also furnish the yacht’s interior with items that resemble furniture while also adding carpets, and paintings to make it feel more like a real vessel.

Building a yacht in Minecraft survival is a thrilling and challenging experience that lets players explore their creativity and build a vessel. By paying attention to the details and creating a realistic design that includes the yacht’s features, players can craft an impressive vessel that they can use to roleplay or simply show it off to friends because building a yacht in Minecraft is a very creative and impressive feat. Once the yacht is complete, players can showcase their new yacht build to friends.
