Sport Deck net

I must build a considerable Tennis court on the Sport deck of Cap Arcona. All the nice plasic tea-bag nets are too short. Does anybody have an idea for an alternative?

Try searching eBay for model mesh. Many sizes and meterials available.

Look for Organza fabric. Sometimes it is used for gift pouches or gift ribbons. For real large dimensions you may find it in fabric stores

I'm sure the material is used in other things, but look at "Media Bags" for Aquariums.
They come in all kinds of size, and are nice and white.
And Cheap.
A very fine mesh, but still an open weave...kind of like a Tennis Net.
And very soft, floppy and foldy....like a tennis net

Thats what I heard.

some years ago I nearly freaked at my birthday cafe invitation when a friend ordered green tea with a wonderful mesh bag. I forced him to finish the tea at gunpoint, threw the tea into a nearby flower pot and was happy for the rest of the day: my sports deck net for Queen Mary 2 was born
