So for a non-boat guy, auto probably makes more sense if you're in situations where you're likely to get knocked off a rock or jetty and crack your head. If you're wading on sand you can probably safely get away with manual?
I ask because I bought my Dad a manual inflatable for Fathers Day. He's strictly an on the sand guy, but he fishes alone at night in a few fast current areas. I'm thinking it might be handy if he steps into a hole or off a bank that's steeper than he thought.
