Both. Imagine one of those huge racing row boats that might be 40 feet long with a beam of maybe 18 inches vs. a big fat-butt Hunter 40. Joe Coquina

It is calculated by multiplying the LWL area by 5.333 for sea water or 5.2 for fresh. The PPI usually increases as the hull sinks into the water as the LWL area is also increasing due to the shape of the hull above water.
