Does he also own the smokin joes boat? wheres it at?

Awesome looking boat sir! What engines are those?

Yes he also owns Smokin Joe its in the warehouse awaiting a complete overhaul. The engines are original Gentry Marine Engines that I found that were from the race team and we completely rebuilt new turbos and some updating. they are based on the GM big block platform.

great stuff!

When I was on vacation in CA back in March, I made a point of it to stop by Archer Marine. I must say Dan was EXTREMELY hospitable, even though he had to take care of a customer (another Turbo boat). I wish we could've grabbed a beer....maybe next time!!

Thats alot of work!

i have seen a lot of restorations but i have never i mean never seen anything like that. Absolutely drop dead bad ass. You guys at Team Archer do amazing work.

This restoration is not just shine and paint. What you do not see is behind the dash and under the deck. Wiring, switches, plumbing all "period correct" for the era. Amazing Job
