Displacement, at the shown speed at least. Long thin monohulls very seldom plane.

She's surely in displacement mode, but may have the capacity to over come her wave train, though judging by the lack of a dynamic relationship with the water and it's bow wave, I'd suggest it is incapable of full plane mode.

She's displacement running about 1.4 S/L in the image above, unless the wave train is reacting to a "fall" which surrounding conditions don't support.
