I know this has been talked about before, but I couldn't find any threads about it in the archives. Can anyone recommend environment-friendly cleaning products? What I'm looking to clean is primarly the non-skids and other deck areas, then the hull of the boat. The boat will likely be in the water when we clean her. In the past we've used soft scrub for the deck with very good results, but the boat wasn't in the water at the time.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Starbrite non skid deck cleaner is biodegradable and it works very well.

A Simple Green, bleach and water solution is very effective, biodegradable and inexpensive.

I agree with the Starbright cleaner work well for me. If you buy it a Wal-Mart it is alot cheaper than West Marine
