Yes.
Any water proof bearing grease will be fine. Go to the auto parts store, get a can (1lb?) it will last for years. Or you can use outboard lower unit grease, or trailer bearing grease.
My wife thinks that a tube a Park grease is special stuff, so she buys me a tube every year as a stocking stuffer. I have a few lying around.
Whatever you use, use it sparingly.

It's far more about the frequency of maintenance then which compound you use. The above advice is good. Andy
