Great advice! I plumbed in a metal outboard motor tank to my pump, gravity fed. Those small plastic boats are pretty bullet proof.

Keeping the intake out of the dirt is key, it makes the pump last longer and you don't have the intake hose filling with sand/dirt.

How do you keep the boat in place on the pond?
