Looks like a depth finder to me.

"Instead, all functions of the Cruise system – on, off, engage, disengage, increase, decrease and resume – are controlled by a pair of built-in buttons that allow the system to function with the simplicity of an automotive cruise control. "
my boat probably has cruise control corect craft what they look like and where can I find these buttons? if anyone has pictures of these buttons? |

If it is the basic cruise the gauge should look like the one right next to the drivers finger in front of the cupholder. If in the dash probably the spot that has the depth gauge in it, furthest to the right.

Was Correct Craft Cruise it's own thing? Or was it a rebadged Perfect Pass?

Brian, it is a Perfect Pass unit, the basic cruise had no paddle wheel, it was RPM based only.
Marty, the steering wheel mount was not used until 06' maybe even later then that, it's possible that unit only works with Drive by Wire also. |

Chris, I am looking at bigger boats right now for next season and I was wondering about the RPM based speed control. Does it work well or how does it compare to the paddle wheel control? I would think the paddle wheel is better and is based on actual speed, but I may be wrong. You post is very timely for me. Thanks, Donald |

Donald, I have a Perfect Pass Stargazer. It doesn't have a paddlewheel but it does have GPS. It also has an RPM option. It has multiple modes, RPM, Wakeboard, (Trick and Jump which I never use) and Slalom. When you use the slalom, it actually has a calibration mode, to map speeds to particular RPMs. Honestly, I think that the slalom mode then winds up going pretty much off of RPM then. I'm pretty confident I could use RPM for everything, wakeboard, slalom etc. The only time it wouldn't work well, is if you had a boat that might be coming on and off plane at a particular RPM. |

Donald, I have had both and the paddle wheel does work better in most situations.
PW version: can be set in RPM or Speed modes, you set speed prior to the run, not effected by changing boat/wind direction, gauge displays speed/rpm, etc., up/dn arrows on display can adjust on the run speeds in .2 or .3 mph increments, resumes previous speed on re-starts once withing a few MPH of set speed Basic version: rpm based, set speed on the go, no display, requires tweaks on the fly if conditions such as wind/direction change, up/dn arrow adjustments similar to PW version, resumes previous speed on re-starts once withing a few MPH of set speed The PW version definitely requires less user input so the driver's attention is much more focused on the skier and the surroundings, not as much speed and throttle. |
