Default Cleaning lines (ropes to the lubbers!)

Toss 'em in the washing machine on 'delicate' with some
Tide.

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.

"Far Cove" Catalina 36 - shiny engine, not so shiny lines.
