Does your boat have the ITC (Intelligent Throttle Control) There was a thread in the Scarab section I think, someone added the plugin module from the BRP PWC's to enable cruise / ski mode but I don't think it worked. Not sure if they needed the dealer or CanDoo to turn the option on.

I'm assuming it does, is there a throttle cable from the helm to the motor, or does the throttle cable go to a "device" under the console.

So I'm pretty sure all the boats have itc, but looks like the "options" are limited. Found a thread on greenhill about how to add ski mode / cruise to any ski, it might be worth a read. I'm surprised the boat brands are not offering the add on module at a usually high "boat" price.

Here's the link, I was looking at the Glastron and they use different gauges then the other brp powered boats I've seen. Does your boat have a mode and set button? Do you have eco mode or docking mode? Can you change the small digital display?

This is a pic of my gauges. The buttons are basically backward and forward to toggle the small display to show depth/speed/rpm/temp digitally .2014-glastron-gts-series-187-7.jpg

Since they are using "custom" gauges, and looks like they have it setup to go thru the display options with the toggle to go forward / back. Given that I'm not sure if you'll be able to add the cruise module. Looks like you would need to add the mode / set etc buttons. Have you contacted Glastron to see if they offer an upgrade?
