'repeated profit after a wild ocean' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'profit after a wild ocean' is the wordplay.
'profit' becomes 'gain' (synonyms).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a wild' indicates an anagram.
'ocean' is an anagram of 'oncea'.
'gain' after 'oncea' is 'ONCE AGAIN'.
