    The pipes are just stuck in it was a really snug fit and the water should swell it even tighter. Weight 2 to 3 concrete blocks.

    My plan is to have the pallets present drilled and then put the pipes on right before I sink them. That way a can stack more in the boat. Should be able to put out 10 in one trip.

    great idea! force the pipes in snug fit and then they should stay as they swell. can see a school of crappie hiding in that "brush" pile ambusing shad but the pipes not grabbing Jigs from us!

    I just had a thought........ How long do the nails holding the pallet together last? Once they rust into, do the wood/pvc parts float away?
