Minecarts with chests don't have an opening animation either, which is WAI per MC-173400. I see no reason to think this is a bug.

Duplicate of MC-173400.
In minecraft's code and files, boat with chests have their own chest texture and model. Its purpose for replacing the original chest model is unknown for me, but it may be a leftover from a developer's testing that somehow made it into the release. Minecarts with Chests and Boats with Chests are not meant to have animations nor sounds (as said in MC-173400 and MC-249383's resolution), so it seems a bit incoherent to have a model with 'animable' pieces.
Also its texture mapping is inconsistent with other chests on minecraft, wich may confuse people that make resource packs.
This is not a duplicate of MC-249378 since this bug is about the model and its "extra" unnecessary code on the chest boat model, not about the texture itself not having a christmas variation. Thought all this could be invalid, I'm not completely sure if it really is, so the confirmation statuts would depend.
Relating to MC-251089 & MC-173400
As there's no official word if Mojang intends to add an open animation for Boats with Chests or Minecarts with Chests - the textures for boats shouldn't render the interior, nor should the texture include the interior.
The Rendering of Minecart with Chest in game - should cull the interior of Chest in the Minecart.
The rendering of Boats with Chest in game - should cull the interior of the Chest in the Boat

Thanks!

The boats in chests are the same as well
And why is this resolved?
I know it says Works As Intended but Mojang said this was a feature request so does that mean this is INTENTIONAL but if it's requested on Minecraft Feedback it might be changed?
Yes, this report describes behaviour that Mojang considers intended, but that can change in the future. Feel free to create a feedback post.
Thanks MMK
