Is this a great site or what?
Matt Alger you may not get all the info you need here but you will get a lot be sure and continue to share with us what you find out.
I for one did not know a 637 would move more dirt than 2 pull pans.
The key to this project is the right property, and it looks like you are doing your homework on that.
Yes, scrapers are very efficient but also very expensive which is why many people go with ag tractors and pull pans. For small ponds, it is likely that the pull pans would be a lower %/yard. However, for 800+ feet haul distance it is tough to beat a scraper.
