Rudder bearing grease?
I did a search; and the most recent post on this was 2004. I am looking for a good recommendation on which type of grease to use; specifically, what brand/type are you using?
I have heard/read that "wheel bearing grease" for boat trailers is OK; but I used a "waterproof" bearing grease on a winch once and it turned to a gummy mess in the presence of saltwater spray. I won't make that mistake again; especially in the rudder tube.
So if someone has a brand/type that has worked well without gumming up in the rudder shaft could you please post it here?
