Peter, I don't know if you have the same product in Australia, but here in the US, there is a dish detergent called "Joy" which works in salt water. Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps work OK, too; you just have to use a lot more of them than you would in fresh water. If you don't have either of those prodicts available, you might be able to find sea soap at a marine store. It doesn't work as well as the other two things I mentioned, but it will keep everyone closer together than nothing at all. Have fun!
