are the saltigas sealed like a VS? I had mine in the sand and submerged for the better part of 5 hrs sun night and fished it last night, couldn't even tell i had abused it the night before. 
more abuse will be taking place tonight   |

The Saltiga may be sealed, but the close tolerances between the spool and the rotor can cause sand jamming issues. It's more of a reel for the rocks.
There's a place in most anglers' arsenals for both reels, IMO. The Saltiga drag is about the best there is, and the innards are strong enough.

I fished with 2 local guys last week in Montauk.We went down the south side a few points got way out an fished offa some rocks>In a good swell.every 10 mins or so u get knocked off.They Had been usin their Saltiga 4000 series reels for 2 yrs with no care other than some fresh water every now an then.They loved em.
They are a very fine tuned machine make a VS look like a 706.I think the power of the Saltiga is what put that jig into my noggin.
I'm sold.Now if I could just catch a fish on mine..

What about the original question.
Anyone got any answers? I've got the thing apart and I'm looking at the damn spool washers with a magnifying glass right now in order to figure this out.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
