    When we had a smaller pool (18' round), we would fold both sides in on the middle, then roll as we pulled from the end, then store in a really big Tote with a hinged lid at that end of the pool. It wasn't too bad, but like I said, pool was smaller, so cover was smaller. Now the pool is larger - we are getting a reel and mounting outside the pool at the back end. Check out Matt4x4 posting where he has pix. I think thats the way to go.

    follow up question
    we have an irregular shaped pool very similar to matkot
    and didn't want to deal with the hassle
    but ...
    if you put a solar blanket that covered, say, only 50% of the water surface, would this help keep the pool warm or would it be a waste of time?

    I have a solar reel, and a solar cover cover to protect it when rolled up.

    For the winter I dry it, fold it up, and put it away.
