Yes, a flat bottom hull is a type of displacement hull. Displacement hulls are designed to move through the water by displacing a volume of water equal to their weight, and a flat bottom hull achieves this by providing a stable platform that can efficiently displace water. While flat bottom hulls are typically used in shallow water and offer good stability, they may not perform as well at higher speeds compared to other hull shapes designed for planing.

a displacement hull is like a canoe's hull... it displaces water
A flat bottom is a hull design which allows the user to approach very closely to shore, or enter shallow waters.
A planning hull is typically associated with a flat bottom design, as it allows the boat to rise and glide over the water at higher speeds. While catamarans can also achieve planning, their hull design is distinct from that of a traditional planning hull. In contrast, ragged bottom and multi-faceted hulls are not specifically designed for planning. Overall, the flat bottom design is most closely linked to planning hulls.

Most sailboats and large cruisers typically have displacement hulls, which are designed to displace water as they move and provide stability and comfort in various sea conditions. While some modern designs, such as catamarans, feature flat-bottom or multi-hull configurations for increased speed and stability, traditional monohull cruisers predominantly use displacement shapes. Cathedral hulls are less common and generally found in specific niche designs.
Displacement: The weight of the water the boat displaces. Hull weight: The weight of the hull of the boat

As ponds, small lakes and slow flowing rivers, may be shallow generally, a flat bottomed, or a shallow keeled boat is best.
