• Looks excellent – Caribbean beach colours – printed pictures will not do it justice• Similar features (albeit much bigger), suitable for multiple uses outside summertime• Formerly a ‘conventional’ (blue) pool like ours, same manufacturer• Video will be emailed to members and displayed, material samples will be available at
