The command you want is "closest"
closest 5 :1
will save the closest 5 waters to residue 1. Note that the numerical
identity of the waters will not be preserved so you can not look at
commands like "diffusion" on this adapted trajectory. Also, you will need
a prmtop with with 5 waters to process/watch movies/analyze further.
