Understanding and calculating marine displacement is essential for the design and operation of ships. This tutorial delves into the formulas and calculations associated with marine displacement, focusing on length, breadth, draft, and block coefficient.
Use 6.0 to 6.5 as a target for LDR in a glass-sandwich built cruising catamaran. To adjust LDR and fully loaded displacement mLDC, change the length/beam ratio of hull, LBR. We can now estimate our empty boat displacement (kg): mLCC := 0.7 ⋅ mLDC. mLCC = 4995.
The prismatic coefficient is the ratio of actual underbody volume to the volume of a prism having a length equal to the DWL, and a section equal to the boat's maximum sectional area. The prismatic coefficient provides an indication of the distribution of displacement.

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more. Formula. CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64) Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet; D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
The Formula. First of all, we need to know the maximum hull speed for a displacement hull, and from that number, we will be able to calculate how much faster the semi-planing (or semi-displacement) hull will be. This is the formula for Maximum Hull Speed on a displacement boat: Max hull speed= √((Length on Water Line x g) /(2 x pi)) x 3600/1852.
Power Boats: Power and Range Calcs. At the very least, this takes the displacement, the waterline length, quantity of fuel, horsepower available, and the various vessel speeds, and gives a table or graph of expected range and power usage at different vessel speeds. What to Expect...
