Hank,
Sorry I cant help you out with which lights to use. But as for how long the strand needs to be , that's simple. The lengh of the strand needs to be the circumference of the pool.
Multiplying the diameter of your pool (33) by pi (3.14) will give you the circumference.

The actual length of lit tube needs to be 104' long. What you actually need are low voltage lights with a remote transformer. The transformer needs to be as far away from the pool as you can reasonably get it, but at least 10'. It also needs to be on a gfci circuit. I would also recommend a pool rated transformer.
