Horses don't seem to ever want to go in boats. You can even place them directly on it and they won't want to go in. I might be missing something, but it would seem to be an error caused by trying to fix Squids climbing in boats.

Could the "Works as Intended" please be explained? I don't quite understand. Thanks : )

See MC-89963. Their hitboxes are too big; once they go in the boat, you have to jump through hoops to get out.

Yup. If a mob's hitbox is too big it won't go into boats.

So... I ride my horse, I find the sea, I let my horse, get on a boat, get to another continent but without a horse... Absurd. The long explorations in v1.9 ruined again. I think this report should be reopened for it.
Can I ride on the boat a baby horse? Their hitbox is less? :S.

Thanks Skylinerw & Restonehelper. That helps me understand WHY this was made "Works as Intended" : )

16w04a / 16w05a: if you get put a horse in a boat (with commands), now you can interact with the boat ... The boat hitbox is below the horse hitbox (you hit the boat down and the horse will disembark)... So, it is not necessary that the horses can not be mounted on the boat π.

Is incredible that this report is up for review! It is absurd to miss this feature. https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-96536
WAI due to the fix of MC-89963
