[QUOTE=Fordeaux;1138797]But I'd like up/down anchor controls on the foredeck and at the wheel. Also thruster controls at both upper and lower helm. Currently there is only a single "up anchor" control. So you run out to the foredeck and spin the release allowing chain to "free whee'" out through the hawsehole.
That a lot of running and climbing for an old badger...., but yeah I think I'm going to be fine to single handing with some practice.
Thanks for the travel pointers Pete.

Even better than thruster controls at both stations, which is a must IMO, is a wireless remote control that will let you control the truster(s) from wherever you are, even on the dock. I have a wireless remote on my thrusters now and it is great. Check with the manufacturer of the thruster and see if they make one.
