A friend was not happy in terms of the smoothness of this reel since getting dunk in seawater...
Everything was good, bearings were fine but its not what you'd expect from a reel of this quality.
Upon opening, what was obvious was the slight play of the shaft. A little tightening was done and everything was fine. There was a marked improvement on the reel crank.
Here is the before video

You can clearly see that the crank stops moving in mid spin.
This is the video after tinkering with the reel..
