What would it cost to simply throw in a new liner?

About $30K for the material alone. The liner is 1/3 acre in a single sheet that weighs a ton or two. No thanks.

The liner can be repaired even if it has a big hole without draining the pond. The catch is, I need to know exactly what the problem is (all the problems are) before I invest a $1K or more to fix it.

Can you do that without draining it?

Nope.

How about dangling a Gopro under a boat as you row around?

A bad approximation to what I've already tried with an iView 360 Pro and pedalboat.
