I generally am not out that long, but my buddy with a 36 foot motorsailer has this routine: he uses Joy detergent and has a salt water pump (inside and out, depending on weather and location) and wets down, lathers up, rinses with salt and follows with a fresh water rinse. He has cruised for many years and spent a year aboard a while back.

I've been discussing our needs with the admiral and we're in agreement on the requirement for a separate shower so the Landfall has now captured our attention. Looking at boats on yachtworld it appears that only LFs made after 82 had the separate shower, is that true or was it a layout that was always available? Our 32 doesn't have a shower and the head is tiny. I couldn't really imagine taking a shower in there at all. Showers are probably a point of interest when you're swimming in salt water every day??? Seems that the LF also carries over 100 gallons of fresh water .. having never showered on a boat I don't know if this is enough for a rinse off every day? How often are people showering with fresh water when away in remote anchorages in the Caribbean? Or other warm climates? I have no experience here. I also wanted to ask the owners of the LF 38s which layout you have and what you like about it, and what you don't like about it? Have you done much long term cruising or living aboard? Wally, I've read most of your articles and I know you installed the U-shaped galley, I guess I assumed all Landfalls were that way. The landfalls are a good value. I laid out a bunch of options in the "when to go cruising" thread and one of them is certainly taking our boat up to Georgian Bay and keeping it there. A Landfall would serve well on Georgian Bay as well as being enough boat to do some long term cruising on. We haven't yet figured out how we're going to take off forever so it looks like that plan will have to wait a while. In the short term however, moving our boat to Georgian Bay is looking like a win/win in the short term.
