Any grease that has a Aluminum or calcium complex thickener will be VERY water proof and stay put.

Schaeffer's #238 is what i/we use also Amsoil off road grease are very high quality long lasting.

Bel-Ray waterproof grease is top notch stuff, it is thick and tacky and takes a [censored] of a beating!
I wish they made a winter formula as I would exclusively use it in my sled as well.

Schaeffer's #274 is what I use, it handles the low temps that #238 just can't. It also protects almost as well as it.

I used to use the Amsoil Waterproof stuff, but I had issues with it bleeding/washing out, and for the price I have to pay the Schaeffer's is just simply a better product.

Schaeffers 274,238 or the 221,229 all are extremely waterproof. You are right Gamefoo21, the 274 is a better all-climate grease.

I use a PWC on Chesapeake Bay and Delaware Bay - I like the 14 oz. tubes of Pennzoil Marine grease. It's eay to find at the local boating shops. It's a calcium sulfonate complex grease.

I wish they would offer that in a 1 pound tub though, for those jobs where it's easier to not use a grease gun.

For (those) jobs I like Mystik High Performance Marine grease, it's very tacky, blue anhydrous calcium grease.

Green Grease is available at your FLAPS (iirc, spotted both at AZ & AAP) and is very tenacious & waterproof. Any marine-grade grease would also work well.
