I have a 1994 500 Sundancer and after I take it out and get it warmed up the starboard transmission does not seem to engage properly. After running it for a little while if I want to go in a straight line I have to steer the rudders to starboard. When I come back into the Marina to dock (stern first in to the slip) the port and starboard shift are not in alignment. I have no reverse on my starboard side until I pump the shift in and out of reverse. What I am thinking is the hydraulic fluid is getting hot and maybe bypassing something or bad seals in the controls. I bought the boat last summer 2015. The starboard engine turbo was out so I replaced both turbos with brand new OEM turbos over the winter. I took both the original turbos down to a local turbo shop to rebuild so I could sell them and they told me the starboard turbo looked as if it got hot causing it to go out. I am thinking maybe its getting hot over there and thats messing with my hydraulics. What do you all think?
