For what it's worth, I use the following for my Gancaloon (and others) 
water:

       finish {
         conserve_energy
         diffuse 0.2
         ambient 0
         reflection {0.01, 0.2 fresnel on metallic 0}
       }

In combination with an interior{} of course.

Marc Jacquier used the following finish for his sea water:

      finish {
        ambient 0.15
        diffuse 0.0
        brilliance 5.0
        phong 1.0
        phong_size 90.0
        specular 0.4
        roughness 0.01
        conserve_energy
        reflection {
          .1,
          .9
          falloff 2
        }
      }
