Since I will begin measuring pool lengths, I ventured out to Home Depot (and then to the Internet), to try to find an acceptable measuring device for a 50 meter pool.
I found that Stanley makes a 100 foot stainless steel tape, but could not find one longer.
In fact, the only longer tape I could find was made of fiberglass, which is not allowed for certifying pool lengths.
Does anyone know if a stainless steel tape long enough to measure a 50 meter course is manufactured, and if so, by whom and where can it be purchased?
Thanks.

I would suggest a Lufkin tape. They make them up to 100 yards and the accuracy is sufficient for measuring pools (better than 0.005 meters). They have a web site but they are part of a conglomerate so a Google search of Lufkin Tape will find it.
