Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Property Projects & Construction Driving in dock piers

We used 2" galvanized pipes for the uprights and used a copper 3/4" dia pipe and a hose on the inside of the pipes to jet them in. Water and sand/dirt came out of the top of the 2" pipes. We stopped about a foot to two feet shy of final desired height and pounded them down the rest of the way. Used a 2 hp, 2" outlet irrigation pump necked down to a 3/4" garden hose for a water supply and pumped right out of the lake to do it. We put the pier in the lake.

It's been in the lake for 35 years so far.......
