The degree of the hull dead rise angle & width in proportion with the length, play the biggest role. Steep "V" makes for smooth wave cuts & transiting. Off plane fishing, trap hauling etc they want to roll more. If this vessel had a slightly wider beam from below the water line up, because the the sides had less flare it would make a small measurable difference but the dead rise vs length play the biggest role... in my humble uneducated option.
