My ex father-in-law runs between 1600-2500 taps every yr with two teams of Belgians and two gathering tanks mounted on wagon gears with the reach shortened all the way. The drivers stand on the front of the wagons and one has a seat from a mini-van mounted on the back that holds 3 people. Room for one more to stand next to driver on both. The other has a place for 3 to stand on the back. You want to make sure to hold on, gets a little rough at times. We use a four wheeler to shuttle extra helpers to the woods. Once in the woods everyone is off the wagons including the driver of the more experienced team. They do real well with voice commands in the woods. The ruts are deep in places but that can't be helped given the time of yr it is. The older team pulls the bigger tank, 210 gallons. The youngsters pull 150 gallon. This year on just over 1600 taps we made 174 gallon of syrup in three weeks. Location is Pittsfield Twp. Wellington, Ohio.
