Thanks very much for all the replies. My plans were to make a driver similar to what I've used 1000's of times to drive T posts on our farm, except with a long handle on it. I am going to make it light enough to keep from getting too fatigued, but heavy enough that it won't take but one or two licks to drive the slats. Good idea about it needing to float. I might just tie a rope with a float to it. I can design it so that it will have little bouyancy and also where there will be little water resistance when driving the stakes.

Stake beds work great. If you can build them in deeper water, so much the better.

Got a pile of 3-4’stakes going to screw them to pallets take off most the pallet boards hope this helps em sink and going to use 2 old fashion concrete blocks per pallet and see how well they stay down also got some Cain to cut too .

Pallets make another great steak bed. Pull slats off and reconnect them in a vertical position then put a weight on the pallet and send it down!

2-3 is ok 3-4 works real good. I like to use zip ties when fixing the slats vertical, that way they don't rust out and the thing doesn't fall apart.

I made a video a few years back about driving stake beds. Look on YouTube for Stake Bed 101. There is no sound but script in on the screen. We drove 1000 stakes in about 2 1/2 hrs out of a bass boat. Works great. Need two people, three would be great.
