I can certainly see why it would be in the running. My concern is this is the first year they are "waterproof" and the system they have employed (double grommets, essentially, around the handle post) is not tried and true, as yet. No doubt they will fix any issue quickly, but I have a hard time with untested technology.
My problem is I can find issue with all of the reels I have looked at so far. For the amount of money I am looking to spend I want to make the right decision!
Read a lot about the penn torque as well, but it seems to have an issue that needs correcting relating to the bail around 30lb of drag, well short of the 50 it has to offer with the drag mechanism. Again sure they will fix it, but I do not want to be disappointed for that kind of dough!
