Default Steering issue on 1988 Sea Ray Seville

I have a 88 Sea Ray Seville with a 100hp Mercury. The steering works fine but seems to have loose motion in the wheel. It feels as if it is low on fluid and slight correction is needed at most times to maintain heading. Is this normal or should I have something checked?

Outboard and stern drive boats with planing hulls wander at slow speeds.
