So one thing that took me a season and a half to figure out was what to do with my floats and toys when not in the pool so it didn't block the skimmers. After taking the floats out each day I finally figured out to stack them all on top of each other and then use a rope and carabiner. Made a loop knot and put around the umbrella and then hooked carabiner onto the round float plastic handle and voila skimmers are always free.
