On fins and nuclear powered ships

I think the problem is with waves lifting the boat. Seems to me that the boat floats on the water, and the waves are really just raising and lowering the water level. As a result, there is very little additional pressure from wave action.

Where the waves might be harnessed is with a stationary platform, like a pier, anchored below the crest of waves. This would allow your flaps and jets to harness the wave movement.
