Villager Rafts
Villager Rafts adds stranded Villagers drifting across oceans on wooden rafts, so players can meet them far from any village.
What it does
Stranded Villagers appear on wooden rafts that drift across ocean biomes. Each raft carries Villagers of different professions, and the rafts are detailed enough to hold ocean-themed loot that players can search for. The structures are generated in the world, so they show up while exploring open water rather than being crafted or summoned.
Villager Rafts runs on the client and the server, so both the server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across five release versions, 1.19.2 – 1.21.8, and the code is released under All rights reserved, which means the mod is not open source.
Key features

Ocean-themed loot
The rafts are detailed enough to hold ocean-themed loot that players can find by searching them.
Ocean biome spawns
The rafts spawn in ocean biomes, so they are found while travelling across open water.
