About BoatHandsFree

From Modrinth

Allows players to attack, use items, and interact while rowing a boat.

BoatHandsFree is a Minecraft client-side mod that removes operation restrictions while rowing a boat.

In vanilla Minecraft, players cannot attack, use items, or interact with entities and blocks while rowing a boat, which can lead to a negative gameplay experience.

This mod removes these restrictions, allowing players to attack, use items, and interact with entities and blocks while rowing a boat, making boat operations more flexible.
