Over the years the original name has faded. More and more people today identify such devices as a steamroller.
According to A Child's Garden of Grass: The Official Handbook for Marijuana Users (1969, Jack S. Margolis & Richard Clorfene) "A steamboat is a combination of a pipe and a joint merging the best of both into a powerful tool of good."
While a true pipe only has two holes (a bowl and mouthpiece), the steamboat has three (a bowl/joint holder, mouthpiece, and a rear hole nearest to the bowl).
To use a steamboat one covers the rear hole, puffs a few times upon the piece to fill the chamber, and then uncovers the rear hole to puff once more - inhaling the full contents of the chamber.
"Some inveterate critics may claim that these are not Steamboats, but pipes. They're not. They're Steamboats. A pipe has two holes, a steamboat three or more."
