I know contemporary boats have full blown laundries but Im pretty sure there were no washing machines on fleet boats.

BTW there is such a thing as salt water soap. Used to use it while working on fishing boats in Florida.

(Sorry bored at work and ... well things that make you say Hrm)




well they did have the sinks in the galley and im sure a decent supply of dish soap...... string them up in the engineering spaces where its nice and hot and you have a nice dryer..... just a thought lol
