Best Answer

The very buoyant inner tube will lift up and allow the wave to pass underneath. But there may be a slight force from the wave against the inner-tube that moves the inner-tube forwards a little.
The inner-tube is more likely to move when there is the effect from the currents of the water and the wind. Place a cork in the Gulf of Mexico, and eventually, it will land on British shores (somewhere). But, if on throwing the cork, the wind is counter to the current flow, the cork could finish from where it started.
