Default Cleaning lines (ropes to the lubbers!)

Keith,
Does this cause a lot of wear and tear on the washing machine? Do you put the
lines in a net bag or toss them in as is? Merlin.

I've used braided dock lines forever. Now I have floating docks, so I just
keep them all tight, no problem. I also use nothing but black, since it's the
most UV stable color, and doesn't show dirt. I wash them once a year

or
so in the washing machine on gentle cycle, warm water, with Woolite (or cheap
Wal-Mart substitute) and use fabric softner. DON'T dry in the dryer, just hang
out or put back in use.


We just got a brand-new front-loading washing machine, that tumbles back and
forth rather than "agitating". Sounds like money well spent (as long as my Lady
doesn't catch me throwing slimy old lines into "her" brand-new machine!)

oops see you answered that below...

must be the Neptune model. I've been looking at them but the combination
washer/dryer are a bit expensive.
