Rick Nice idea. Do you have the Idasailor? I've been very happy with mine although I do have to use a boat hook to get it all the way up.

My M17 came with a cam cleat on the starboard side of the transom for raising the fixed rudder which I don't use since the boat also came with a kick-up rudder. After losing the bolt that held the ladder I simply use a short lanyard tied to the ladder, run through the eye-strap and made fast to the cam cleat. Works fine, and there's nothing to lose.
