Level sequence moving with character

Hello, I have a boat and I have animated it with level blueprint. I run the game and I hop on the boat. The boat starts to move like it should and I jump on. The boat moves and I don’t. I eventually reach the back of the boat and I am forced off. Does anyone know how I could make a level sequence that I could jump on and move with it? It’s almost like I’m on ice when I jump on the boat. I don’t move at all and the progress in my game I need to travel across the water.
