Which type of hull rides on top of the water rather than pushing the water aside?

The correct answer is planing hulls. They don't ride on top, but rather skim at high speeds, so it seems as if they're riding on top of water instead of just pushing it away. These hulls are those of flat bottom boats or of vee bottom hull shapes.
