You could modify the "Faller Car System" to drive a boat instead of a road vehicle. The system uses a magnetic wire buried under the surface and the battery powered "vehicles" follow this. Whilst it's possible to get a boat to move I have my doubts as to how realistic it would look without the ripples and wakes it would create in real water.
