This is great to hear and thank you for your sharing your thoughts.

And to me, this makes it more comfortable to progress on the pool that is being built for our family.
Never owning a personal pool, this was a big decision for us, since everone that I knew "claim" they have had or recent pool history experience say's that THEY WILL NEVER OWN A POOl.
It made me feel very uncomfortable to have us become a new home owner pool because we listen to others (hey what are friends for, right? ).

Unlike us. I been a avid boat owner for the last 8 years. Never a headache to get the boat out to the lake. The headache would start when taking it out and towing it home and then cleaning it and the honey due list keeps going. Not to mention I would spend at least over 180.00 a day to play with the boat.
Fuel costing me over $150 a fill up. Buying food, fill up the tow rig (Humble 12mpg suv) Boat launch fees, stress dealing w/ other boaters that don't know how to back a boat trailer. It truely gets very stressful, but more annoying since there seems to be an idiot born everyday that owns a boat or heck even a jetski/pwc.
So getting rid of our 2004 ski boat, I think the pool will hopefully be a great move and bless to not even leave my property to enjoy the smiles on my family's face.
So on here I been asking a whole lotta questions and I seem to get great feedback and support. So I feel that I soon to be a newbie pool-owner, I fill I made a great move to get out of the boating world and into the backyard pool world.
