Jesse James 48 footer drives and rudder

Rich,

Does this look like the original drives you guys had on the 48 footer?

That boat is wood? Man that thing is cool. Any deck or rigging pics?

How many JJ boats are accounted for and where are they?

I remember standing next to that boat and seeing up close. It was not only jaw dropping, but I still get goose bumps thinking about it.
Would love a chance to see it up close again....
