I personally dont know that as fact though, I dont have it in my boat. I did just switch my street car and my tow vehicle over to all Amsoil fluids though. All the talk on car & truck forums / boards is positive.

I ran the Redline Shockproof Heavy. I have to say one thing about the Redline is that it clings to what ever it contacts with.
I have since switched to Amsoil, at the recommendation of my drive specialist, when I purchased a new XR.
There is a new thread in Tech Q&A in regards to the new Amsoil product.
At any rate, there are at least four different lubes from four different manufacturers that are great products. Check out the thread.

We run amsoil. Had a friend that developed a water leak into his drive last season. He ran that way for 35 hours (duh, don't even ask why). But when we looked at his fill container it was light chocolate colored.
Tore down his drive this winter and replaced the bad seal. There was no damage to his drive. He is glad he was running amsoil, and will forever now.
