For another $150, you'd be nuts not to go with a Stella SW instead.
Once you get into the $700 range on reels, go with the proven commodities. Van Staals have been around for almost 20 years, and Saltigas prove themselves every night in the Canal.
There is nothing innovative, or even an improvement over the proven high-end spinning reels, about this fugly thing. Unless you consider that goofball button that switches from automatic to manual bail closure--what looks to me to be a sand jam in waiting for surf guys--an "innovation". Penn is late to the dance with a clunky looking entry, IMO.
