I ran out of my Penn Blue Grease and decided to order some of the Yamaha Marine grease. When I opened it I noticed it was not the bright royal blue that I thought it would be (like the Penn grease), it's more of a pale blue. Also, it doesn't say waterproof on the container anywhere, only "resistance to salt water". So is this the good stuff or did I just waste $20?
This is what I got. $5.90 + about $14 for shipping! http://www.parkeryamaha.com/yamahamarinegrease141oz.aspx (http://www.parkeryamaha.com/yamahamarinegrease141oz.aspx)
That's is what ours looks like too. Appears that Yamaha changed to formulation.
Thanks Bryan. Still good grease? Or is the new formula inferior to the older version?
Only time will tell. I figure that Yamaha has more to loose than we do if the formulation does not live up to its reputation.
it seems to work just fine. i prefered the darker blue stuff as well, but so far it has not been a problem.
Been using the new stuff for a couple years now. Works great. It does turn green but doesn't seem to effect anything.
