Best Answer

A displacement hull always displaces an amount of water equal to the weight of the boat. A planing hull at a certain speed, will begin PLANING and rise partly out of the water, forced up by its v shaped hull, and only be displacing an amount of water equal to partial weight of the boat. A large ship, a tugboat, a barge, or a sailboat are displacement hulls. A speedboat or a jetski are planing hulls.
