The rudder on our C&C 37 is very stiff. I suspect the grease in the rudder
post is old and thickened, does anyone have a suggestion on how to address
this problem in the water?

There is a zerk fitting on the rudder post. I'm considering putting in some
kind of thinner oil, and then pushing in new grease. I disconnected the
cables on the steering quadrant, the helm was easy to turn after that and I
was unable to turn the rudder by hand.
