Out to sea. If they can get far enough out the wave is only a few feet high. This is because the ocean is deep. It is only when the wave comes close to shore when it is slowed down by the continental shelf and the water is wedge upward into a huge wave.

What affect does an earthquake have on docked boats and boats on the sea?

The effect an earthquake has on boats is that it can lead to a tsunami. The tsunami in Southern Asia a few years ago had an interesting phenomenon: Members of the Moken/ sea-gypsy people had not one casualty in the tsunami, because they knew that boats needed to go to deep water (and all people on land to high ground) as soon as they saw the sea-level receding. The greatest danger to boats is if they are in the dock in and after an earthquake. If they are at sea, staying in deep water is the best and safest thing to do.
