I've done a few good long stints riding, tis fun. But yeah transporting by boat is the flaw here. On the islands I tamed and bred lox I enjoyed riding around but I'd rather not tame more and more just for the funs at different islands cause boat transport is nearly impossible when playing alone.

If boat transport or even portalling lox was possible that would increase their usage heaps for me
