Is the boat in the water all year? If so, how about buying two sets of lines
(after money is more available) and rotating them. Take some home to dry for
a month, while the others turn green on the boat.

Hi,
Spring Cleaning time for Far Cove! I usually replace the lines, but
this year money's a bit tight. They're perfectly servicable, just rather
green from the Wet Coast's winter wetness. What's a good/safe way to clean
them? I heard an oxygen-based bleach like Oxy-Clean was good for sails -
how about dacron lines?
Same question for sail covers.
