Hi all,
I have been lurking this forum for nearly a year, found the information very informative and the members friendly and helpful.
The Wife and I have a pond made from a Boat Mold ( the device used in the creation and shaping of the outer bottom hull when building
fiberglass boats) and filtered with a homemade Skippy filter.
The pond is at least 10 years old (not sure what year we put it in) and is around 2000 gallons,stocked with a couple of Koi and about a dozen Gold fish.
Still a little early in the year, so kind of ugly at the moment.

Nice idea, I like the touch with the piles sticking up, with rope makes it look like the boat is tied in a slip.

Thank You, for the kind comments about the pond.
So, now I am off to the DIY section, to ask about suggestions on a raised bog filter.
