Displacement hulls - Monohull boats frequently ride deeply in the water, this is known as a displacement hull. Planing hulls - Hulls that ride on top of the water are called planing hulls, because when they reach speed, the hulls are substantially lifted above the water; this is known as planing (to plane).
Royal Navy World War II motor torpedo boat planing at speed on calm water showing its hard chine hull - note how most of the forepart of the boat is out of the water. At rest, a vessel's weight is borne entirely by the buoyant force. Every hull acts as a displacement hull at low speeds: the buoyant force is mainly responsible for supporting the ...

In seafaring, under keel clearance (UKC) is the vertical distance between seabed and the keel or hull of a ship. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is used to ensure sufficient navigable water is available for ships at sea.
The CSF does not consider the hull shape or ballast location. Any two sailboats will have the same CSF value if their displacement and beam are the same. As an example, one could have a light hull with 50% ballast in a bulb at the bottom of an eight foot fin keel , the other could have a heavy hull with 20% ballast in a 2-foot-deep (0.61 m ...
