On my 1994 Ski Nautique, there is a grease fitting on the rudder assembly under the gas tank. Should that be greased with regular grease? I don't remember my older Nautique having that fitting. Thanks for your input!

Some of the ports have the fittings but most don't. It wouldn't hurt to give it a couple shots of a marine grade grease. The marine grades are less likely to wash out with the water.

Welcome to the site or at least posting. Have you been around for long or have you just found CCfan. Get some pictures and a short story together so you can get it to keith to post in the diaries section.

Be careful not to give it too much grease as you can jam it up.

Thanks for the welcome. I found the site about a month ago, but have owned 2 Ski Nautiques. I bought a 79 in 1982, and then sold it in 1998 and bought a 1994. So, in 27 years I've only spent 1 week without a Nautique .

I'll put something together with some pics in the next week or so. Thanks again!
