So, I have a small ocean "lake" in the middle of the mainland where I would like to grow an above average tree for figs and tree shelter. I built a boat in this small body of water, which is only just about big enough for one boat, and put my knobbly tree seed into the water using the winch on it.
Will the tree be able to grow if the boat is still on top of it?
And if I destroy the boat, what are my options for retrieving the boards that are left floating on the water? Other than console commands, obviously that would work just fine. But I'm curious as to what my in-game options are for getting out-of-reach items out of the water. I thought of the lazy forager, but I'm curious if there's anything else that might work that I'm not thinking of.
