the waves travel through water, but they do not carry the water with them. The ship moves up and down as the wave passes under it. The ship does not travel with the wave!
Wave Erosion
A wave crest hits the ship. The next wave crest is 14 m away and it is traveling at 7 meters per second. So in two seconds it will travel 14 m . Similarly, the next wave crest will hit in two seconds etc. So the crests hit the ship every two seconds.
A wave in sea or ocean is a transverse wave produced by oscillation of water perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave.
The term "forward" is arbitrary. The waves propagate away from the energy source that created them or away from a reflective surface. In mechanical waves (such as ocean waves), the waves move through the medium (water), but the particles in the medium do not travel along with the waves, although they do oscillate in place as the wave passes through the medium.
This is when waves in the sea crash against sea walls, for example, over a long period of time. Eventually there will be marks on the sea walls and this is called wave scouring.
At sea, the only thing that would change, Hollywood aside, is the depth of the water under the keel, and, she may pick up a few knots. +++= She wouldn't pick up any knots. In deep water a tsunami passes simply as a swell, and that has no effect on a ship's speed because the water itself is not moving along the wave's track. If anything a small boat would move in a small circle about a horizontal axis as the wave lifts and lowers it. ' A tsunami becomes a destructive surge of moving water only when it reaches water shallow enough to break the true wave action.

To reduce wave drag on a ship at sea & to save on fuel costs.

It is a noise that does not come from an instrument like if a song is about a sea, you could have a wave sound as a special effect.
Dolphins (and sometimes sea lions) like to "body surf" in the wave kicked up by the bow (front end) of a fast-moving ship or large boat. They seem to do it purely for fun.
Feburary 6th, the highest sea wave was 34 meters.
