Changing Boats causes world tick crash

What I expected was that when I moved from one boat to another, I would experience a small lag spike.

What actually happened was that Minecraft froze and then went to the dirt screen.

Steps to Reproduce

1 - Make a pool of water in the Redstone Ready preset in superflat near the spawn
2 - put a boat in the water
3 - go in the boat and put another boat in the pool
4 - move to that boat.
