Either Delftship calculates half the volume, or Rhinomarine calculates double. A rough check for the displacement =0.7*Lwl*Bwl*draft.
Which one of the two programs is the closest?
Tip: If delftship calculates only half your displacement the layers defining the hull shape are probably not defined as symmetric in the layer properties dialog.
