Love the cruise control on the 2012 speedsters, and the boat itself :)

Anyone else love the cruise control on the 2012 speedsters. I have a sky ski (hydrofoil-really fun) and need the boat to only go about 26kph, problem is at that speed it is not on plane so you take it up to that speed then it slowly starts to slow down then you have to speed up again and it goes to fast so have to slow down then it starts to slow down further and it is a real challenge for the driver to keep it at 26kph. Not to mention the person on the ski sky is always slowing down or speeding up and that really effects the lift of the hydrofoil so you have to constantly adjust. Yesterday we tried the cruise and it was great. We started with the boat in normal mode, sped up to about 30 kph to get the person out of the water then set cruise and then used the toggle button to bring it down to 26kph and the computer keeps it there. Works like a charm. Sure glad the boat has it as sky skiing would not be much fun without it for the driver or the sky skier. Works great for tubes too. Except with the tubes you set the cruise mode first to whatever speed you like then from a stop just advance the throttle all the way and the computer will gradually and slowly ramp the speed up till it reaches your set speed then hold it there :) Can't do this with the sky ski as the ramp up is to slow, but with tubes it is great as they are already on top of the water.
Love this boat :)
