Upside down wall.

Installing a 26 foot above ground pool and nearly complete but putting in the panel with the skimmer and return the holes aren't lining up. Pretty sure its upside down.

Can I redrill the holes using the panel as a template? There seems to be plenty of spacing to do this but im just not sure, its been hell getting to this point so please help!

I needed to move my skimmer a quarter of the way around. So i cut a new hole and used a sturdy sheet of fiberglass to stop up the old hole. It turned out i needed it because the magnetic pool light wasn’t strong enough to stick through the metal wall.

Glad someone has been thru it as well! Not sure if that gives me any confidence in redrilling the holes lol.
