"Other types of greases will probably work but marine grease does not flow even at temperatures over 300 degrees. A yak stored set in the sun can get very hot inside so greases that liquefy at lower temperatures could get a bit messy.

Bob,
I haven't tried the grease yet, but it sounds like a great idea.

But there is something you should know about m"marine" grease. Some but not all, marine grease is waterproof and does not liquefy when it comes in contact with water. Make sure the grease is "waterproof" so when you do get water inside your yak the waterproof grease won't liquefy and lube up the inside of your yak and get things messy.

Here is my bungie set-up that works great for me. I have a Hobie Outfitter and I have located the transducer in the lowest part of my yak. Here is what under my seat looks like....
