Key differences

Length : beam is length divided by beam — the higher it is, the slimmer the hull. Multihulls read low by nature.

Each boat's published length and beam seen from above, and its mast height and draft from the side, all drawn on one scale.

From above — length × beam

Outlines are schematic; the dimensions are the builder's.

From the side — height above and depth below the water

What the builders publish about how fast, how strong and how far — each figure on one scale for every boat.

Total engine power per tonne of published displacement — more means livelier acceleration for the hull. Drawn for motor yachts.

One scale per liquid across every boat: a tank twice the height holds twice as much.

The boats most like the ones above, by hull form, size and use.
