I'm claiming Christmas deferral on this OT question: My M&FIL have a place on Lake of the Ozarks they get down to when they can (From Iowa). The have a good-sized (26' I think) open-bow boat on a pontoon lift permanently mounted to their covered dock. I don't know the make of the lift, but think it has 3 "logs", or floats. We'd like to get them a remote control for the lift for a christmas present so my MIL doesn't have to jump on/off the boat from/to the boat anymore. She's still spry enough to embarrass most of us on ski's, but it's only a matter of time before she get's hurt. I know it's likely to be expensive, but they've been great to us. My questions are basic: Are there generic aftermarket remotes for this common air-type lift, or does it have to come from the maker of their particular lift? Does it supplement or replace the manual controls already there? Any reccomendations on makes/models? Thanks fella's, for all the advice and entertainment last year and wish all of you and yours the best always.
