Castrol make a 'Boating Grease'. Generally you are looking for a high temperature combined with high water resistant properties.

I use a general boating grease for bearings, rollers, etc and I have a good quality grease [cartridge](INOX)for the outboard. Both repel water to a degree, however the INOX has additional additives which are more expensive in the manufacturing process.

Stay away from Ag style grease that does not repel water, although they have high temperature properties, their effectiveness will decrease dramatically when exposed to water.

Bias Boating at Tingalpa/Capalaba ?? sell Inox grease. That's what I use for the trailer.

Cool hubs

I think I saw Eug put Castrol boating grease in my hubs.

Yea it was that grease as that's what I use on my roller spindles too.

Kurt might be able to give a good opinion as a trailer maker.
