Calc Displacement

I have a hull design in an .fbm format. I also have delft and freeship plus. I am a total newb and ignoramus when it comes to these programs. I am trying to find out how to calculate the static displacement of the hull sitting on its waterline, either metric or imperial.
Any help?

Thank you,

I haven't dabbled with any version of Freeship newer than 2.6 so my reply may not be much use to your specific situation.In Freeship 2.6 there is a toolbar header labelled calculations and one of the items on the dropdown menu is design hydrostatics.If you click on this all sorts of information about your design will be displayed.

 

@wet feet,,Thanks for the help sir. Yes, I was able to connect with that menu and in the upper half it shows the current file info on the hull. Down below it shows nothing as far as results. I am a little challenged at this point. This is a one meter RC racing yacht. I am wondering if the dimensions are too small to register on the program?

 

The time difference between us may make this a protracted thread.I just created a one metre long hull using the default settings with the following output from the Design hydrostatics feature.

Design length : 1.000 [m]

Length over all : 1.000 [m]

Design beam : 0.290 [m]

Beam over all : 0.288 [m]

Design draft : 0.040 [m]

Midship location : 0.500 [m]

Water density : 1.025 [t/m3]

Appendage coefficient : 1.0000

Volume properties:

Displaced volume : 0.003 [m3]

Displacement : 0.003 [tonnes]

Total length of submerged body : 0.808 [m]

Total beam of submerged body : 0.234 [m]

Block coefficient : 0.4002

Prismatic coefficient : 0.5301

Vert. prismatic coefficient : 0.5780

Wetted surface area : 0.144 [m2]

Longitudinal center of buoyancy : 0.482 [m]

Longitudinal center of buoyancy : -2.209 [%]

Vertical center of buoyancy : 0.026 [m]


Possibly not even remotely close to your particular hull,but it shows that the information can be extracted.Can you post a lines plan of your model?

 

@wet feet,
Yes, thank you for your interest. Here is the file for the stats. Any help appreciated.

 

I was able to find displacement and convert to pounds and ounces. Thanks for your input.
Displacement = 5.6 pounds.
