Go-fast boat

.
The dance or go-fast boat is a high performance boat of a characteristic design. Originally designed for offshore powerboat racing team by Donald Aronow, the fast, powerful boats became notorious as the drug smuggling boat of choice in many parts of the world starting in the 1980s. These boats were used at first to smuggle cigarettes into Canada and therefore derived their nickname as the "cigarette boat". A company was formed later and trademarked the actual name cigarette. The technical know-how that emerged from Go-fast boats eventually led to the design of high speed luxury yachts, which then replaced Go-fast boats as the preferred sea vehicle among the elite.
