I have a 1999 180 BR with the 3.0L. I had a power steering leak and had new hoses made. I’ve filled the reservoir with a total of one quart of steering fluid over a few different outings but still read nothing on the dipstick after running and turning. Was it so low on fluid that I haven’t added...

Good evening. My wife and I are interested in buying our first boat and we are looking at getting a 175, 182 or a 185. We figured one of these models will be a good starter to see how well we will do with it. We are looking for older boats around the 2001-2006 years to keep the cost low incase...
