WalMart sells a similar (the same?) grease in tubes for the lower unit
of outboard motors. I have been using it in home-made bearings on
equipment stored outdoors and haven't seen any rust under the grease
yet.

Most outboards use GO80 or GO90 in the lower units, not grease. The
green wheelbearing grease comes in gun cartridges. It's thick, sticky
stuff. I used to pack my bearings every year with it. My present
trailer uses oil-immersed bearings so I don't have to do that anymore.
