Note from asker:
Thank you Tamer. But are you sure of the term as I know displacement means (إزاحة)
Thank you Tamer.
Dear Tamer. Here what I found after some search. 1. A displacement craft has a curved hull that extends down into the water. A non displacement craft is usually a flat bottomed boat that extends only slightly into the water. non displacement means a planing hull, ie a hull that rides over the water rather than pushing it's way through it 2. Non-Displacement Craft Are not defined. The most common are: “air-cushion” vessels known as hovercraft and hydrofoils.http://www.sailskills.co.uk/colregs/Sailskills_definitions-non-displacement.html Looking hydrofolio up I found it mean سطح انسياب مائي : يسهل إقلاع الطائرة المائية
