Doing Laundry on a Boat

 Today's Helpful Tip - How to do Laundry aboard ship!:  First you let laundry pile up and even turn clothes inside out to get an extra day out of them, sometimes exchanging your clothes with others on the boat just so you won't look like your wearing the same thing all week.

Then you take a large ice chest and throw your dirty clothes in and add soap and water.  Sea water is okay if you want that old Sailor smell too.

Next you take a Plumber's helper and plunge the dirt out over and over,  just like the agitation cycle of a real washing machine. This helps build muscles like churning butter, if you lived on a farm.

Next, unplug the drain hole of the cooler, this water shouldn't be used to clean dishes with.

Next comes the Rinse cycle and thus may take a couple of times to get all that Soap out. After thoroughly rinsing,  hang clothes all over the boat rails. Being cautious when hanging bed sheets, as you might accidentally set sail.

One last tip is not to wash all your clothes leaving you naked as you run around your boat hanging laundry,  this can cause other passing by boaters to have an accident while sailing.

And there you have it, clean clothes once again and something you can be proud of. 😜
