I'm unable to use boats. The new boat controls contribute a large amount of motion sickness to me. I've ended up not using boats entirely as the result.
For wide angled turns you need to move your mouse quickly towards the sides of the boat. To control it in narrow spaces you need to move the boat slower than as you would walking. The lack of a brake also creates a problem where players have to turn their boats in the opposite direction rapidly as they approach their destinations.
Please bring back the previous controls for boats. It's not helping anybody and it creates a health issue to some as it does to me. The press "Shift" to exit the boat is prefectly acceptable. There's no need to change that.

No my good sir, that issue has be resolved. I'm reopening this issue due to the list mentioned above. I will do what it takes to get this pushed to Mojang. My health and recreation with boats depends on it!

I have tried it more than once. Never was I successful in getting Mojang's attention. This also isn't a suggestion. This a bug in the game.
It's not a bug as stated by the resolution of MC-14521.
You are correct, it has been resolved as working as intended.
You are not reopening an issue, you are opening a new one which duplicates MC-14521
This is a suggestion, as it is not a bug in the game as it is working as intended.
"A software bug is the common term used to describe an error, flaw, mistake, failure, or fault in a computer program or system that produces an incorrect or unexpected result, or causes it to behave in unintended ways."
I know, but then again the customers are always correct, not one but all if they all take arms against a common cause. There would never be a product, particularly this gem of a game, without us. This boat mechanic is flawed, it's a mistake that makes boats behave erratically. This is very similar to the issue back during when the game was in Beta with the ladder's hit boxes removed. Luckily that was fixed when we raised hell and Jens decided to notice, I wonder if they're ignoring this issue? I'm also not the only one who has pushed this to Mojang. Here's a tiny tiny taste of what I can pull up in a short matter of time.

I can easily pull up more information, but I know that I'm not going to be able to dent anything no matter how much I try. I don't also want to start a fight with nobody. I'm just desperate for this to return back to the way it was before as do many people do as well. I also understand that you're not responsible for fixing any related issues. I'm just going to leave whatever I have here in hopes that one day Mojang will see our plea. From the looks of it we'll never have our opportunity. Sigh.................
