I wish I could help you with this but I thought I would pipe in just to tell you that I have noticed this too. (Sometimes it's nice to know one is not going mad. lol)

The funny thing is, in some missions the sea looks great and yet, in some, it is as you said. The rather odd thing is that I have noticed this happening fairly recently and could have sworn it wasn't like that a few weeks ago (Of course we are all still waiting on the patch and the last one seems like a lifetime ago so it can't be anything like that causing it.). I've tried the game with various conf.ini settings (Due to having a not so great PC I have spent more time fiddling with that than flying. lol), including the stock one, at low settings (Urgh ugly) all the way to Very High (What a beautiful slideshow. lol).... never seems to make a difference to the sea though.

Hope someone can come up with an answer for the both of us.

Edit: Sudden thought..... have you got an ATI card and have you been using ATT? I am wondering whether using ATT to switch everything to performance may be causing this? (I shall experiment once my son is off to bed) I've noticed that the tweaks have led to greater performance but have made thin boxes appear around everything on the menu page and wondered if this could be another side effect.
