Miller Y-link (or Hydro-link ?) swivel will need to be greased on the turnaround cruise.
[x] research what size and shape grease gun adapter needed for the swivel
[x] get or borrow grease gun or see if one on the ship
[x] get grease gun fitting adapter
[x] get special grease
Grease type recommended by Miller -- Jet Lube ALCO-EP-73 PLUS (www.jetlube.com) or similar product. Nothing in Miller docs about the grease fitting part. In 2014, Joe and I purchased blue-green grease and nipple from Marine supply store in Morehead City, but I don't remember the size of the nipple or product number. Also, I don't know if any grease left or if it could be found at IMS.
