Help with sloppy steering

Hello fellow boaters,

I had a new engine installed two years ago and the marina recommended me to install a hydraulic steering at the same time, so I did.

But the steering feels sloppy and I have to turn +/- 15 degrees steering angle before the engine starts turning.

This also makes the boat stear left to right at slow speed so I have to counter the boat alot to make it drive straight.

What can I do to to make the steering feel more direct and precise?

Had this problem from day one of the new install, and no I cant ask the marina for help because they are no longer in business...

Any tips or tricks ar very welcome 🙏
