Actually then you'd just have the non-losing aspect. Realism would be to sink
the boat, the anvil and the char :-)
Which brings up an important point. The boat containers need to have a max
weight value and the water being traveled upon needs to interact with weather
and moon phase to get the 'sea state' which could cause you to swamp; if you
are close to the weight limit (being over the limit would have obvious
repercussions.)
Must also include the weight of the chars/mobs in the boat too, as well as
all
their eq. Could swamp a canoe easily. I like it :-)
