This is probably so that "BOARD FLUME" does the same thing as "BOARD BOAT", but it doesn't work:
>BOARD FLUME
You can't get into the flume!
That's probably because PRE-BOARD handles it first, and the object isn't a vehicle. Though I'm not sure what the consequences of making it one would be.
Also, LOG-BOAT-F handles the THROUGH, ENTER and CLIMB-ON actions, in addition to BOARD so even if it did work it would be a bit under-implemented.
Since the flume is the water channel that the boat is in, perhaps that's for the best?
