Can we have some way of pushing stuff off shore?

[BezKa]

There was a mention of that in the Waterlogged update, but never happened. I just wish I could use a board or something to push a seed into the water without making a boat and all that stuff

Why would you want to do that, though.

I want big trees? And there's already stuff in the water i don't want to disturb by getting a boat there.

Ah, you meant fig trees. I thought you meant regular seeds you'd find off the ground. In that case, it would be convenient to just push them off the shore on a weak little raft.

Fear not, for you can simply use our lord and savior: the Grass Raft. You don’t even need to build a Pinch’n’Winch because it sinks itself!

Thankfully we're able to throw items off the edge by clicking near the shore with an item in your mouse "slot". 
It'd be nice to get this feature for heavy objects but as others have said until then your best bet would be a grass raft. Just make sure its close enough to shore to put Jam on it!

Put them on a grass boat if you don't want to make a boat with a Pinching Winch for whatever reason.

Grass boat still doesn't fit in the space i need.

I'm on the same boat as you, I got a 2x2 turfs of water in the middle of mainland I was hoping to drop a nut. Unfortunately grass boat ain't small enough to fill the space, I tried placing nuts on docks and destroying it but the nut teleported to mainland for some reason, I'm not sure if it was too close to land or what, my next plan is to wall the 2x2 water pool after placing a dock and nut there and destroy the dock. In my mind the walls will prevent the nut from teleporting to land. I still need to test it but you might as well if you're desperate enough and hopefully share your findings?

The game is programed to teleport any heavy object back to land if it's impossible to retrieve it with a pinching winch this is to prevent people throwing suspicious marble and locking themselves from repairing the marble statues. Unfortunately for us, this applies to other stuff as well, giant crops, tree seeds, normal statues.

My method was to get my friends on, and pick the seed up while they closed a gate built on the very edge of the shore. I fell in, seed fell in, but just like in your case, the seed teleported back on land.

I really wish seeds could get an exception to this rule, but i wouldn't count on it. In my case, the body of water is large enough, but I've placed a piece of kelp in a very specific spot that works as a marker and if i move it I'm gonna have some trouble. Also a lureplant boat on the other side.
