We tried Lemon Joy (makes lots of foamy bubbles in anything, warm or cold, salt or fresh), Castile Soap, and Shaklee Basic-H concentrate. Finally I decided that, yes, it was possible to do all our cleaning jobs with one product, and yes, it was also asking a bit much of any one product. Each of these "could" do all the jobs, but couldn't do all the jobs WELL. We're in this cruising thing long-term (10 years and counting so far) and hadn't found a cleaner that didn't feel like it was compromised in one application or another. And over the long haul (we've been living aboard fulltime for 10 years and counting) it felt like camping out. When you think about it, the simplicity is nice in theory, but in practice, it doesn't take so much space for an extra bottle or two. It was worth finding space on the boat for a nice cleanser that was gentle on my sun- and wind-burned skin, and a shampoo/conditioner that made my hair happy.
