Should I keep some sort of oil or grease on my propshaft? I clean it off after every summer and am just curious as to what everyone else does. Thanks.

I use the water proof trailer bearing grease.It's still there after a whole season of boating.

Also use the water proof grease. Help's lessen corrosion on prop shaft & provide some lubrication for the splines. Bob

I use Neverseize on my propshaft,Pops used it when he bought the boat back in`72, and I still use it today.

I’ve heard testimonials of good success with Tripple Guard and NeverSeize from some of my boating buddies. I use wheel bearing grease because it is what was handy the first time I changed props whey back when and it has always worked good. It’s just a case of sticking with what has worked for me. My guess is that any decent waterproof lubricant will do just fine.

No, not over at Barney's site much anymore. I find this forum to be faster moving and I just don't have time to be on two of them. Anyway, you now know where to find me. http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gif
