my understanding is that a VS can be used all season long and be completely submerged on every trip, and then never rinsed, never lubed, never anything, and just sent out for the yearly service for $50 or whatever it is and the thing will last forever. Tell me if I'm wrong though guys! that for me, would be worth the price if that is in fact true.
I use Penn's and although I never "dunk" them, meaning completely submerge them, they get soaked pretty good from time to time by waves. when they do get soaked, all I do is rinse it off with fresh water (I keep a large spray bottle in my car and spray the thing down gently) then I put the Penn anti-corrosive spray on there and they are good to go. I try to get them serviced once a year, which entails a complete breakdown and lube, other than that, I never take them apart in season.
