Hi All
So my Halcyon 23 has two greasers...A smallish one right behind the stuffing box which is a right pain to access through the floor and ..
a second,much larger (cup/ reservoir?) accessed thru rear cockpit locker next to fuel tank,much easier to access.
Obviously old school tech and i'm not bothered with going for a PSS ,just wondering about how useful rear one is? if gland already being greased by 1st one and assuming cutlass is using water as lubricant then.....is rear one actually necessary or just an old school belt and braces approach?
also thinking ill just take a hacksaw to the smaller one a couple of inches up and run a tube to a more easy to access place next to the other, no/any issues with a potentially long rubber tube able to deliver grease?
Cheers in advance for any advice tips etc
