Started scrubbing sails and cushion covers. Although wen looked at the sails
before we bought it I was concerned about the condition of the sails, they
looked ok in the evening light when we first looked at them, but now we can see
them laid out in the backyard. With a bucket, woolite, and a soft brush, we
started scrubbing the sails. Man were thy dirty. You could see the dirt on
them, just by hosing them down. We scrubbed with a brush, and other than a
couple rust spots they are all bright white now. I also soaked the jib sheets
in a bucket of woolite. Disgusting! I soaked them for a couple hours, then
changed the water, and soaked for a couple more hours. Then rinsed and rinsed
and rinsed. But they are white now too. Brooke washed the cusion covers in the
washing machine, with soap and vinegar. The vinegar kills the mold. They look
great now too.
