cigar boat Explanation: It looks like "charuto" is a misnomer. I would suggest translating it as "cigar boat" based on this finding: "When it comes to Go-Fast BOATS… Many people say CIGAR Boats. While that is half right… they mean to say Cigarette boat. Here’s is today’s CIGAR BOAT." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 mins (2017-12-15 09:15:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- PS: In other words, I suggest maintaining the misnomer in English translation for the sake of precision. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 30 mins (2017-12-15 09:26:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Indeed, I found a few references of 'barco cigarro" online, including this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYk9WrSXqC8 Hence: barco cigarro: cigarette boat charuto: cigar boat They are the same of course, except that "charuto" is a misnomer.
