I need to lube it soon. Ain't got the money to buy the tool right now but I could buy my own lube if someone has that tool thing handy. Would be nice to watch someone do it too besides ayoutube video. In the fort worth area.

What a rip. That should be included with every propel drive for what they charge. bang

Did some searching. Found this. Choose the greaseguard for the longer nozzle. $12+shipping.

REI sells the same grease that native does. $8, and in stock at all DFW locations.

This is not a peddler's problem, this is a Propel problem. That is pretty lame that it doesn't come with the kit. Should have gone Hobie and you could just spray the unit with some WD40

there are advantages and disadvantages to each one. But I am more than happy with my choice. Please note that Brod is testing out my yak right now and I am not chinking the idea of adding a hobie in thr future! Probably would not be a PA though. Or don't throw out the idea of adding the new wilderness thrasher in the future...

We live in a time where there are many offerings for watercrafts. I'm glad that we still have free choice to pick the one that is right for our own style of fishing/kayaking.
It's also pretty cool when we can see each others differences and options and except them as they are. Hey, at the end of the day we are just wanting to sit on top of the same water and hope to get slimmy stuff on our hands. thumb

Like giving a guy grief about wanting to play with the paddle boarders rather than fish?
