Learn how to make a realistic boat in Unity with the physics equations used by actual boats. The main inspiration comes from this article:

• Water interaction model for boats in video games

Notice that the code here hasn't exactly the same code structure as in the tutorial. I'm still not happy with the water surface and will update with a better version in the future.

• Why is my boat launching into the sky when it hits the water? The most likely solution to this problem is that the collider attached to the boat has to be set to convex! This by the way always true when you attach a collider to a rigibody.
