The laws of fluid dynamics mean that the ratio of length to width is what determines how fast you can go, along with how much power you can transfer into the water. The Iranian boats can only keep up because they are built to lift up out of the water at speed due to hydroplaning.
Aircraft carriers are the fastest non-hydroplaning ships on the ocean, and destroyers are not far behind.

Translation: the boat has a set of small waterskis sticking out beneath the hull. at high speed, the boat skims the surface and rises up on the skis. the skis have very little drag allowing the boat to go even faster. that's their purpose.
