Careen (4)
I believe the answer is:
reel
'careen' is the definition.
(I know that careen can be written as reel)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for reel that I've seen before include "Drum - dance - music" , "Winding spool on a fishing rod" , "Highland dance" , "Turn around in the dance" , "Dance; winding drum" .)
