Real popular with offshore racers. I've never seen one on a small boat.

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Someone just recently bought the Daytona from auction.  It will be interesting to see what the new owner can do with that thing.
