Canoe!?

[ScritchOwl]

I have noticed something that may or may not be intended. However it is nifty to exploit.  Grass planks floating in water can be stood on. If they have momentum you can go quite a distance.

So use this and put in two items. A oar which I would recommend being the length of a stem. This could get you momentum on a plank. The other is a canoe. It could be useful for moving between the two bank of the pond or just cruising through the flooded zone. Have your person carry it like planks but make it where once picked up it just list you as full.

Some people posted about the idea of a boat, but I somehow think a canoe fits the reed-growing pond much better.
