My 2 400 Calcuttas have caught several fish in the high 30s from the surf after being dunked and with sand in the worm gear. It's actually kinda forgiving with a rinse. But it does need to be broken down and cleaned. The Calcutta also has a nasty habit of wearing out the clutch arm prematurely which prevents the spool from easily being engaged after the cast. Shimano replaced one of these for free when I had shipped it in for service... Was veryt happy with them.
It's a pretty good surf reel but I have not found any conventionals that can be repeatedly dunked and not serviced semi-frequently. One of the reasons I'm going to fish spinning more this year under certain conditions.
