          Max. No one will agree on this. Filling the tube with grease will increase propshaft drag, by a fair amount. Personally a smear of grease now and then (and not even that if the shaft is stainless steel) or a drip of oil either end my choice…..

            Hi Max

            I use plumbers tap grease and one boat ran for 2 years without adding more grease(that's in salt water).

            The boat has just had a repaint and this time I installed an oiler.
