Uncovering Gordon St. Hilaire's 1967 Thunderbird Power Boat

My 1967 Thunderbird Power Boat is being resurrected. Here at Gordon St. Hilaire's Family Farm we do take time to fix things for recreation.  This boat was purchased by me when I got out of college many years ago. It last hit the water a few years ago and has been parked since then. In this video, you will see the uncovering of the tarp off the boat and getting the tires pumped up to move the boat up to the shop. My boat has several things that will need attention. The first thing will be to power wash the entire boat, inspect the fiberglass and see if the motor will start up. This will take time and effort but will be well worth it!

New Holland 450 Utility Round Baler

Gordon St.Hilaire and his family farm are moving forward walking viewers through our next step in our hay production process which is the baling of our hay. We use two balers on the farm. Today, we are introducing our New Holland 450 Utility baler. This is a round baler and is strictly a dry only hay baler. It has a variable chamber to produce different size bales as well. We primarily produce 4x4 round bales for our needs. This baler was bought new a few years back and is very simple to operate. It uses conventional baler twine and requires maintenance such as greasing, pick up head adjustment and the oiling of chains before each use. About 90% of the hay we produce is round bales. We do still produce some square bales as well. We will discuss that baler next time. Have a great day!

Gordon St.Hilaire's Family Farm Hay Production

Gordon St.Hilaire and his family farm wanted to share a recap post on our hay production series. We usually begin our hay process in early June and wrap up sometime in August/September. Obviously, the weather has a significant impact on this process. The hay is mowed, tedded, raked, and then baled. Previous videos on YouTube have discussed individual machinery and tractors that we use on the farm. Typically, we like to have 3 consecutive days of drying time before the hay is brought into our barn. This was a fun series of videos to record and our hope is that our followers have a better understanding of how our hay is produced.  Our White Face Herefords certainly have no complaints! Please check out our videos on our YouTube channel if you haven’t done so already. Enjoy your day!
