Issue:
When trying to summon a boat, the only way to do it is using “/summon boat ~ ~ ~” which only summons an oak boat. There is no option or way to summon any other type of boat.
Recreate:
1. Go into the command screen.
2. Type /summon boat.
3. See there is no option to summon other boat types.
4. If boat is summoned it’s only oak.
Expectation:
To be able to summon boats the same way minecarts (“/summon chest_minecart ~ ~ ~”) by just describing which type of boat. ie; “/summon spruce_boat ~ ~ ~”.

@Jarl-Penguin | I was told on the Mojira Discord that the way you described is the Java method. It does not work in Bedrock as we do not have NBT or any fancy commands. It’s expected to run the same way other entities like Minecarts do.
Yep, this is also a thing in Java.
I've been using /summon minecraft:boat ~ ~ ~ {type:"birch"}, because it's the only command I can find on the internet being suggested.
The command executes, but it summons oak.
Reply from @unknown:
Wrong command, type needs to be capitalized:
/summon boat ~ ~ ~ {Type:birch}
Did you try /summon boat ~ ~ ~ {Type:spruce} ?
