Fishweewee-
From talking to Toby a little over the past few months I don't think I put my reels through the same abuse as him (I don't skish or reel underwater but I do get my reels splashed & dunked alot), but to give you a quick review I fished 2 Saltigas all last year and they are as good as new still. Also, I did not pay $800 for them, you can find them around the same price as a VS.
This is after I fished 2 VS's for the 2 years before that and had albeit "small" problems with them (leaking oil & a tempermental drag knob), but still problems. I liked the VS's, but not nearly as much as the Saltiga's.
