Large ocean techniques

I'm looking for some tips on rendering large ocean masses in Maya 2018, Arnold 5.

At the moment I'm using a large plane and Boss displacement, but having to hide the horizon with either depth or camera angles. How is it possible to make the ocean feel infinite? and any tips on combining boss displacement for movement with finer detail?

Any tips for rendering oceans in general would be welcome,

thanks!
