Default Steering

Finally got my boat in this am!!! I noticed this last year, when I start it, the steering goes back and forth until you grab the wheel and turn it a couple of times. Any idea what would cause this?
Fluid is at proper level. Also dang captains call isn't working... If its not something its another...
