    daiquiri Engineering and Design

    Right. All the hull shape and displacement parameters are closely intertwined and every guess will necessarily be very approximate.
    As a very broad guess based on typical planing hull shapes and weights, I would assume it to be a boat in a 40 feet range for a single rudder installation or a 55 ft range for a twin rudder.

    P.S.
    Please note I have corrected the previous post by adding the numbers for twin rudder configuration.
