Is there anything better than K99 stern grease?

I’ve just started boating and the boat came with a pot of K99 grease for the stern gland so I have just been using the same. I’ve been looking online to replenish my stock and noticed K99 is water resistant but others are water proof so it started me thinking whether i should use something else. The gland does drip quite a lot and the boat yard say it’s not the packing but it needs a new prop shaft. I want to delay this as long as possible so if there is a better grease I’d be prepared to try it. 

 

Any my ideas ?

K99 is good grease because:-

  • It comes in a handy sized tin (you can store it 'anywhere')
  • Easy to fill the grease dispenser when sitting cramped down the engine hole
  • It's the right type - water resistant
  • Readily available on the cut
  • Morris  lubricants are 'best quality' as they supply lubes for 'posh' and less posh cars....

OK - it may cost more from chandlers - what doesn't
