Default White Clouds on Water??

An earlier poster asked about "white clouds on the water" and I admit I didn't pay much attention to the question.

Then last weekend I spotted was looked like boat fenders floating out on the water and I had to go check them out. Fenders are expensive and I couldn't figure why there would be several floating unless there was some kind of accident.

Anyway, when I got close, I realized it was a white foam, or "white clouds" floating on the water.

Then, this weekend I see "white clouds" forming on my beach, but I believe these are the normal result of light waves/ripples landing on the shoreline.

And seeing the leaves attached to the clouds floating out on the water, I assume that those clouds started on a beach and when the wind died, floated out into the water.

I'm not proposing any monumental scientific discovery here, but just thought I would follow up with my "white cloud" experience.
