Didn't anybody ever hear of a bucket?
Works for everything.
Reminds me.
A boilerman on my destroyer had a grunged up bucket and thought an
easy way to clean it would be to tie it to a rope and toss it over the
fantail and let the sea provide the elbow grease.
We were doing about 20 knots.
Didn't work. Bad rope burn on the hands and one less bucket, one less
rope.
