Relative to the observer in on the shore, the velocity of the boat is 6.5 m/s, NE.

What is relative velocity?

The velocity of an object in relation to another observer is known as its relative velocity.

The diagram below shows the calculation where AC is relative speed, AB is speed of the boat and BC is the speed of stream.
