The owner of the 10-year rebuild project *Brupeg*, a former fishing trawler, installs a centralized, automated grease lubrication system to maintain the propeller shaft and rudder stock.4:26 The system utilizes a Graco manifold block that distributes grease to three specific points: the stern gland, the aft propeller shaft bearing, and the rudder stock.8:06 The manifold features interchangeable proportioning valves—labeled 10, 20, 30, and 40—that allow for precise, variable grease flow to each component.8:46 A manual pump provides initial pressure, with plans to integrate an air-operated system controlled by the boat's Brunet digital monitoring interface.10:29 The setup includes a micron-rated grease filter to ensure clean lubricant reaches the bearings.19:01 The installation requires routing lines under floorboards and securing them with rubber-lined stainless steel P-clamps.18:27 The owner mounts the manifold on an engine room bulkhead, configuring the sight-glass indicators for visibility through a floorboard cutout.12:33 The system replaces the need for manual, individual grease-nipple maintenance.0:49
