You need to replace your steering cables. Are you interested in doing it yourself?

glad to have you on board @trespalmas I'm guessing you're boating primarily in salt water being in Miami which will cause issues with cables faster than others.
How have you tried to lubricate them? pressure feed or just putting some grease on the exposed wire and working it back and forth?
If you concerned about your steering box you can easily disconnect the cable from behind the helm and work your wheel to see if there is any resistance without the cables.

You'll have to remove the clean out tray to gain access to where the cables exit the hull under the swim platform.
Are you still interested in doing this yourself? @trespalmas
These some help in this thread. This reminds me that we need someone to do a step by step on the steering cable replacement.
