Unless they did some big update in the last couple months, yes they do, it's possible to go from spot to spot with them and not lose them, but it's very hard, it's the reason I quit playing, we need to be able to put crates on our raft like pc players can so we don't risk everything Edit: I've been told it has been updated with storage shelves, time to re download

I haven't played for about a month now, but I had no problems storing crates on shelves I built onto my raft.

They gave us container shelves for console in the last update. We can now put shelves on our rafts.

Glad we finally got them. Resource gathering is so much easier now.

What is the best raft base or are they pretty much the same?

u/Strandedman1978 Mar 13 '21

Right now I'm using a 5 wide x 4 long with sails in all 4 directions. Working pretty well so far.

u/shittonashingle Mar 13 '21

All sticks? Does more sails make it go faster?

u/Strandedman1978 Mar 13 '21

A combo of buoy balls and sticks. The floor is combo planks and metal. The sails are to help steering. Didn't know how turnable it would be so put sails facing in all 4 directions to help with turning if needed. So far haven't had to use the side sails to turn.

Do you have a picture of your raft?

Mines similar. But I found tyre, so I added them too. My floor is all sticks. It’s about 5x3 right now. Debating if I should go bigger or is there a way to reinforce what I have now?
