Steve,
No need to scrub topsides. A gallon sprayer, mean green cleaner and some  
bleach will do the trick. Mix cleaner, some bleach in the sprayer. Spray down 
 topsides, let sit, drink a cool drink and then clean with pressure washer. 
Ta  Dah! Soft scrub works best for those pesky spider droppings.

So did  my first sail on my new-to-me 77 Rhodes. I am liking the boat and
didn't  even sink after replacing my centerboard gasket. A big plus was how
easy  she heaves to under mainsail alone which many boats will not do. I 
hove
to  for about an hour in 15kts to scrub topsides and have lunch and she
didn't  move much at all. Maybe the long keel helps  here.
