Fast displacement is an attempt to have the argument both ways, and on a twelve guest yacht it often succeeds. The hull is designed to run efficiently at displacement speeds for long passages, then to carry on cleanly into the semi planing range when the schedule demands it, without the fuel penalty or the hard ride of a true planing form.
With a full complement aboard that flexibility is genuinely useful. A slow overnight passage costs very little fuel, and a fast afternoon run to make a dinner reservation on another island remains possible. The yacht adapts to the week rather than dictating it, which is exactly what twelve people with different plans tend to need.
