    I'm Starting to get some results, however I have long way to go to get sea look like this, I took when boating around my home island.

    I got this by using the default Chaos Phoenix seawater material. Also, the foam is overexposed. However the simulation shape is starting to look OK. How should I modify the material and light settings?

      I have used the default water material here. I don't understand where the turquoise color comes from.

          Water is beginning to look - not good, but acceptable. I still don't like the foam. Any ideas for that?

            The water color can be controlled via the Fog color in the V-Ray material options - the darker the color - the darker the water will be.

            The foam color is controlled by the Phoenix Particle Shader - if you wish to have a darker color for it you can dial down the brightness a bit.
            By default it will use the Points mode - which renders faster but tends to look a bit flatter. You can experiment with the Bubbles mode for example, it will look better, but will render slower.

            You can find more about the Particle Shader settings here - https://docs.chaos.com/display/PHX4MAX/Particle+Shader
