I use an ABU Ambassaduer Pro Max 6600 for my "light duty" boat outfit. Very smooth reel. I think its more heavy freshwater type reel, but takes a beating in the salt as well. Holds 10-14 lb test and casts 3/4-2oz lures perfect. I use my 7000c for live bait and the 6600 for throwing plugs/jigs. I would not worry if I hooked a very large fish with the 6600 either, its a very sturdy reel. I've abused this reel for 7 years with no problems at all.
