FYI. After two years, the stateroom bed covers needed to be cleaned. Took them to the dry cleaners and they refused to dry clean them. Said the rubber backing may melt. I ended up washing them on the gentle cycle with gentle cycle woolite in cold water and then put them right back on after the spin cycle (NO DRYER) Turned out better than expected. No troubles and now they smell clean and fresh. All ready to go for this year!! Bob S/V Never Say Never
