Displacement sailboat
A sailboat will have positive buoyancy if the weight of the boat is less than the weight of the water it takes the place of. The weight of the water that is being occupied by the hull is displacement.

------------------------ A sailboat's speed is directly proportional to wind speed and hull design. The longest distance in 24 hours and the fastest circumnavigation are currently held by a trimaran and the short-course speed record is currently is currently held by a multihull built specifically for the attempt. For you and I sailing our fiberglass monohulls on the weekends, we are having a great day if we hit 10 or 12 knots. ------------------------ A sailboat can reach 30 miles per hour. There are two general types of sailboats, displacement type (monohull) and non-displacement type (catamarans, trimarans). The top speed of a displacement sailboat is based upon its waterline length because it sits in the water and cannot climb above the wall of water in front of it as it travels. This is calculated by taking the square root of its waterline length and multiplying by 1.3. The top speed of a non-displacement sailboat is limited by the sailboat design, the speed of the wind, and their point of sail - these sailboats can go much faster than the speed of the wind that is powering them, and are the fastest sailboats.

Sailboat is a noun.
On a moving sailboat, the main forces at work are the wind pushing against the sails (propelling the boat forward) and the water resistance as the boat moves through the water. The interaction of these forces helps control the direction and speed of the sailboat. Additionally, gravity and buoyancy also play a role in keeping the boat stable and balanced.
Just divide a boat's sail area in square feet by its wetted surface area in square feet (SA/WS = SA ÷ WS),
