Slide (or play) the slider named a in the GeoGebra 3D applet below to move the boat.
The order the GeoGebra objects are listed in the Algebra view (left side) below = the order in which this construction was made. Note there are hidden objects here.
Questions to Consider:
What kind of curves do we see here (especially for those created using the Curve command)? How do we know this?
What geometric transformation is actually being used to move the boat? Where is this evidenced in the applet below?
