PM5 every time if only for the backlight.

I'd say the PM5 will be more convenient for any members that get into the rowing aspect more as recording workouts using a USB key is easier and cheaper than obtaining a log card and reader.

I'd go with the least expensive option. My experience is that Crossfit members are not into rowing like most of us are, and they aren't interested in recording their generally very brief erg sessions (and a pen and paper work fine if they do, anyway).
Mark Underwood. Rower first, cyclist too.
