buoyant hull
Hi Miranda,
When you add driving force to a hull, if it isn't buoyant enough, it will "dig in" (a big problem in the early days of stern trawlers).

: Not sure it is just about "buoyancy", Graham: if you look at FR sites using the term it appears to be applied to hulls that are especially efficient on a beam or broad reach, like a 60 ft open. Not quite a planing hull, but almost ...

the load-bearing capacity of its underwater hull
I would turn around the expression in this way. "and harmonious design" could be added after 'capacity'.
