Keep an Object with 8 Direction Movement on a Platform with Bullet Behaviour?

The Object (Player) has the 8 Direction Behaviour

The Platform (Boat) has the bullet behaviour

I am trying to get it so that whatever the platform is doing, the player stays with it but can still move around and 'get off' if they need to.

So say the platform is moving down (90 degrees Angle of Motion) the Player would move down and keep with the platform. But if the player presses to move up, they can still use the 8 Direction Behaviour.

Thank you!

You mean like this?

Thank you dop2000, that's almost exactly what I'm looking for - an elegant solution!

The only slight question I have is how to make it so that the player can walk off the raft if needs be?

Thank you so much! Unfortunately the dropbox link isn't working - giving a 400 error.
