Hey folks,
I have a 'new to me' 2000 260DA. Finally got a Sundancer. I purchased it last Spring and noticed about mid Summer that the steering would be really stiff when I first start out. It gets a LOT easier (normal) once everything warms up. Any ideas on what would cause that? I think it'd free up even if I just let it run for 10 minutes or so at dock, but I haven't tried that. I usually just muscle out of the slip and let things free up while puttering out of the no wake zone (just a straight line). Obviously having to muscle things in tight quarters isn't all that safe and I want to get this corrected. Any help/experiences is appreciated.
