Default emptying a pond?...

If it's a raised pond try a siphon using a hose, that'd be a lot easier. If
it's not a raised pond, drilling holes in the bottom to let the water out is
like drilling holes in the bottom of a boat to let the water out, LOL!

This group - rec.ponds - is much more interested in building and maintaining
ponds than filling them in, sorry...

I recently moved into a house with a garden with a pond which I do not
want to keep and am keen to convert it into a border as it has been
built in that style.

My guess would be to empty it by hand as much as possible and then
drill a couple of holes through the bottom to let the remaining water
drain out.

Any better ideas out there...?
