i want to build my own lake, nothing big, probably only 4 feet deep, 75 to 100 feet wide, and im not sure how much length i have probably around 1000. i will only be wakeskating and hitting sliders on this lake and pull with a seadoo and/or a 4 wheeler. does anyone have any sugestions, ideas, stories, anything at all about this topic.

Good luck getting the water to stay in your dug out pit and keeping it clean.

do a search. this has been brought up before.

There was an article about this in one of the ski magazines before. It seemed like a lot of trouble.

I hope you have a lot of money because you have no idea what you are getting yourself into! <BR> <BR>See <a href="http://www.laku.com" target="_blank">http://www.laku.com</a> and read their stories. This will give you an idea of what kind of can you are opening! <BR> <BR>Good luck!

yeah ive actually thought bout doing the same thing, but its waaay too much money as of now!!! Wheres ur location!! u need to be either a top of a great water table and then build a industrial pump! at least 100k <BR>or u could go the other option and talk to a manufacturer company and strike a deal where u use their recycled water!! I know some of this info because i am on a the wakeboarding team for CSUN and as a result i am constantly at private lakes all over CA!! i also get a chance to chat with the owners and see how they did it and what their good points and bad points are!! it takes a lot of research!! I have tons more helpful info that i can give based on your needs
