I am about to buy a new 2015 165 Impulse. It is loaded but does not include the Digital Speed control Package; however, it does have cruise and docking modes and I am told that the docking mode is exactly the same as if it had the DSC package. Can anyone verify this please? Any explanation clarifying this would also be much appreciated. I am a long time boater but new to jet boating. Thanks
 
My 2015 165 is similar. Doesn't have the ECO and Ski modes. Never really use the cruise control option that is present. Yes the docking mode will allow you to full throttle but it won't give you everything the boat has regarding power. It's a tame version so you don't over power while in docking mode. It is helpful.

Speed control package is completely not needed after u get used to the boat . All I ever use is the Eco. Happy boating
