Noise by Hal Clement
Kainui is an ocean world, one of a pair of double planets circling a pair of binary stars. Linguist Mike Hoani has come there to study the language of the colonists. But the ocean is 1700 miles deep, and there's no solid ground anywhere, so the population is scattered on artificial floating islands. The atmosphere isn't breathable, and lightning, waterspouts, and tsunamis are constant. Mike's research turns into an exotic nautical adventure unlike anything he could have imagined.
Hal Clement lives in Milton, Massachusetts.
