Ditching parallel to the waves is never mentioned in any of the QRH,s of any manufacturer I have flown . Seems to me a much more important consideration than VREF additions. If I remember correctly years ago Lufthansa suggested ditching with the gear down and full flaps, the idea being they would help with the initial impact.
