Good advice, Chuck. I was going by what was told to me. I never bothered to
check the manual for the correct lubricant.

Use chain lubricant on the chain and on the cables. It comes in a spray can.

You can also verify the alignment of the cables on the turning sheaves
below the pedestal and the alignment of the cables as the engage with the
quadrant.
There are needle bearings on the shaft of the steering wheel. A SMALL
amount of lithium (IIRC) grease in the hole above each of the 2
. If you have anything similar on your boat, check it
out.

All of this talk on rudder bearings prompted me to ask about a little
squeaking I hear when I make fine movements on the helm sometimes. The
rudder feels tight. The cabling on the quadrant looks almost new. Is
lubrication needed somewhere?
Any advice appreciated.
