Are there any waveguides other than the tub and boat ones?

Are you referring to the tracks along which superstrings travel? I'm fairly certain that the term waveguide also refers to any other wave stabilization. As for the superstring waveguides, I think the tub and boat versions are the only clean ones known. Other (dirty) waveguides, however, can be created using barges, long boats, long barges, etc. with greater spacing:
