The water does not move, except up and down(until it breaks), and neither does the energy. Merely a propagation of energy within a medium--a rate of induction NOT A SPEED!.OK, I am surprised that nobody else has picked up on this. Yes, water waves *do* propagate energy. As a surfer, you should know this you pick up part of this energy when you ride the wave. And yes, there is a *speed* at which the energy is propagated.
So even this part of a bad analogy breaks down.
