,Displacement Hull - Correct Answer-move through the water by
pushing the water aside and are designed to cut through the water
with very little propulsion
If you lower a boat into the water, some of the water moves out of

planing hull, when operated at very slow
speeds, will cut through the water like a
displacement hull.
Plowing Mode: - Correct Answer-As speed
increases, a planing hull will have a raised
bow, reducing the operator's vision and
throwing a very large wake. Avoid
maintaining a speed that puts your boat in
this mode
Planing Mode: - Correct Answer-enough
power is applied so that the hull glides on top
of the water. Different boats reach planing
mode at different speeds.
