We think this liner was around 5-7 years old when we bought the house 3 years ago - so this is probably around season 8-10 or so for it. I decided to open the pool myself this year, and I found a very unpleasant surprise. There's a 24" wide tear just below where the liner meets the coping.
I have seen a few other threads prescribing a large patch with scrap liner which may be an option for me. What do you fine folks think? Is it time to replace? The liner has otherwise been fine aside from some mild discoloring. I'm just trying to decide if I patch and fill to complete opening or start getting quotes on a new liner.


Thanks in advance for any insights.
