beach for ponds
« on: July 21, 2008, 08:23:24 AM »
does anyone know of a portable "beach" like a roll-out mat that you can use in the summer and store in the winter?  We'd like to have a beach to swim from in our pond.   8) o(

UM, never heard of anything like that. Is there anything like a woven mat that is made out of plastic or rubber?

What about that fake grass carpeting?  That would work and it's gotten a lot better over time, some of it feels very real.

Would the grass hold up in the water or decompose?

I think it would hold up.  They use it for the decks around swimming pools all the time and it stays wet most of the day and has chlorine on it.  I've seen it at public pools in Calif. used like that.
