Raft
A raft — a makeshift float for uncertain waters — often touches new locations and successful enterprises, with good fortune if you land but accident if it breaks. The dream may ask where you're venturing out on improvised, untested support, and whether the rough craft carrying you will hold together long enough to land you safely.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for raft, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of a raft, denotes that you will go into new locations to engage in enterprises, which will prove successful.
To dream of floating on a raft, denotes uncertain journeys. If you reach your destination, you will surely come into good fortune.
If a raft breaks, or any such mishap befalls it, yourself or some friend will suffer from an accident, or sickness will bear unfortunate results.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of seeing a raft foretells a journey—the longer the raft, the more extensive the line of travel: if you dream of sailing on a raft, it is a sign you will travel, with good success, in distant countries.
