How this ranking is worked out

Displacement divided by the cube of length overall, so boats of different sizes compare; the table shows the displacement itself. Builders state displacement on different bases (light ship, half load), which the model pages record.

84 boats in the catalogue publish the figures this ranking needs. Only figures the builders themselves publish are used; a boat that does not publish one is left out, never estimated, and discontinued models are not ranked. Each model page names the builder's page its figures were read from.
