How to draft a 3D swimming pool

This is similar to @Alan Woodwell 's idea.  It's a stepped & filleted extrude used as cutting surface for shallow/deep transition.

Fillet along bottom edge worked in one go!😁

Shell Solids would not make it in one go. 😡

Hence the 3 shells.

 

A refinement could be to establish drain slope in the deep end.  After Convert to NURBS, and prior to Fillets:

Select the deep bottom surface

Increase Degree to 2 both directions

OIP>Move=Vertex Only

Use OIP to move the ctr vertex in xyz

Now Fillet to the sides & Shell.

Excellent @Benson Shaw  This is the magic I was looking for.  Thanks so much for explanation!

@Benson Shaw Thank you so much for breaking your steps down!  This has helped immensely!  I did another unrefined test to learn your method and made it a little more complicated with a third level rotated at 45 degrees to the main axis.  Worked like a charm.  I owe you many beverages of your choice!  And thanks to @Mason2152 for getting this conversation started, I've learned a bunch thanks to it!  Exciting times!
