Yeah, he the word is “jedzie”, aka “there goes”. A native speaker wouldn’t use this word about a boat though, it would be “płynie”, which literally means “there swims”; we just use a different word for watercrafts.

As a native speaker I use jedzie in the context of boats embarassingly often. It doesn’t really make a difference in casual settings since you get the message across anyway, but of course you wouldn’t say that in any formal situation.
