While baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice, and
vegetable oils are far less harmful than
bleaches, scouring powders or detergents, they
are still toxic to marine life. Use all cleaning
products sparingly and minimize the amount
discharged into the water. Never dispose of any
cleaning products down the thru-hull drain; dispose of them on shore.
