Reply to: washing ropes and sails

[quote=MN3]lines can be soaked in a bucket of hot water to release any built up salts. they can be rinsed and soaked in fabric softner overnight and they should be good as new. There are different oppinions about washing your sails. most sailmakers suggewst you rinse and THOUROUGHLY dry your sails after every use. some say this is silly and build up salts dont "scratch or hurt the sails". I personally try to rinse off my sails if i capsize, or after a few dozen uses. i would suggest you simply attach your sails to a cloths line (or rope tied from tree to tree) and spray then down with a garden hose. leave em out to dry and your done. DO NOT PUT SAILS in a washing machine... (imho) If you put them on the ground on a rough surface be careful not to drag them around as this could wear on any thing it touches. [/quote]
