Hi All:
     I have a motor related question. Beside WD-40, highly recommended
by Elton 
when the boat was delivered, what other lubricant can/should be used on
the 
sliding piece of the motor mount. WD-40 washes out rather quickly with
the 
first good rain. Is there any recommended grease or other lubricant I
can use?

Thank you,

Bruce Chisholm
