Sorry Andinista, but this thread is about using the weight of the humans on the boat to increase boatspeed.

When a monohull planes, it goes faster than its theoretical hull speed which is determined by and large by its length and length/width ratio. It transitions from a displacement mode, where it displaces its weight in water, to a planing mode where the hull generates enough lift to overcome the bow wave; wave-making resistance drops off sharply, thereby allowing a quantum increase in speed.

Kinetics can be used to help get a monohull "over the hump" in wave-making resistance and up on a plane.

The vast majority of catamarans don't plane. The only time I've found kinetics to be of any use in catamarans is in surfing downwind (helps to "catch" waves).
