Volvo Penta Lower Unit Shows Full?

[Spikebaker26]

I changed the lower unit oil at the beginning of the year and have had my boat out 10 times and now I checked it again and the oil is showing to full almost all the way up the dipstick???

I thought maybe water was getting in but the oil does not look milky?

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Ayuh,... Welcome Aboard,...
Is this observation from the Dipstick, or the Drain Plug,..??

Water is Heavier,+ will be Under the oil, if unmixed recently...

Observation is from the dipstick on top.
