One-man rigging aids - is the electric up/down control worth it?

Thanks for the quick reply Dave.
No problem. Note the electric isn't that much heavier;
IMI doesn't use lead-acid batteries like some older electric units, and
frame is all aluminum - it's quite nice (though non-electric is certainly lighter)
Regarding battery charging: In case of oops, best to have a long
lead on the electric rigger, with the same connector as your ship's
battery. That way you can use ship's battery when you forget ;-)
Always using same height on rigger works great if you always rig on a
nice even surface, however...
See ya, Dave
