A displacement hull is an efficient, non planing hull that moves through the water at 1.34 times the square root of the waterline length (LWL). This is not "directly" related to the designed displacement of the boat, that is, usually the weight of the boat, all additional gear, fuel, water, crew, cargo and everything else on board. Besides being efficient a displacement hull is usually more capable in rough weather and requires a relatively small inexpensive engine.

Displacement hull.
What are 3 basic hull shapes?
Displacement, Semi Displacement and planing
Sailboats and trawlers have what type of hull?
Mono-displacement hulls. Trawlers are often soft chined, 'S' type can often be seen on sailing vessels.The hull type depends and what charectaristics the designer wishes to incorporate. With modern materials many more types of hull design are possible.

Difference between displacement and planning hull?
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.
What is the name of a type of buoyancy chamber fitted to a jet ski or the hull of a canoe?
correct answer is sponson However a canoe is actually a displacement hull and usually dose not have a sponson. The answer is "Sponson" I am not 100% certain but a 'flotation tank' comes to mind.
