I guess it might be the clarity. I quite like the legend at the bottom.
Yea actually, that's always the challenge about a B&W map.

What I didn't like:
-The broken coastal wave lines: they distract too much from the land in my opinion.
...and I guess that's it.
I'm partial either on the waterlines. Next time I'll try somehting closer to the coasts or maybe some kind of horizontal ripples to see if that works better. I used a font for the labels, spent a bit of time to find the proper one with a handwritten feel without being too fancy.
