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.

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
