Mastercraft Cruise - any good?
 

Looking at a very low hrs 2005 Mastercraft 205 VRS (same hull as X2 of that era, just without tower or ballast). The only other difference I can see between this and the equivalent X2 is that the X2 had Perfect Pass, and the 205VRS had "Mastercraft Cruise". I am contemplating buying the boat, adding ballast and a tower to turn it into an X2, the price of the boat warrants the spend on these items. The only deal breaker is the Mastercraft Cruise, if it is not any good, then I would have to factor in the cost of adding Perfect Pass, doing so, makes the whole deal less appealing. So wondering if anybody has any experience with this Cruise control system?

If your upgrade margin vs buying an already optioned X2 is only $1000 (for a new PP unit), then I'd say just get the X2.

PerfectPass was an option on the X2 as they came out with MC cruse as well, as said above if its only a k diff go with the X2. Also most people ditch the rear tanks in that hull and put sacks in the rear locker so all you really need is the pumps and fittings for the ballast system

I had master craft cruise on my 08 x1 and it was a pita....nowhere near as good as perfect pass ImO
