Have millions of particles sliding around your moving ocean influenced
by its movement and perhaps turbulence forces.
For the crest you could emit particles off a terrain texture. When the
wave animation reached a certain height, particles are emitted from the
tip.
You could also emit foam particles when two waves are crashing against
each other. I haven't thought about how to do this other one but there
must be a way.

I am not saying I can do all this with XSI....
Actually it could be lots of fun as a test for the next particle engine!

Anyone have some nices ideas to tackle foam btw?
foam on ocean-like bodies of water, as well as coming off the crest of 
waves?
