Hi Foakes,
Got to agree - the Sailfisher is a great reel and I'm sorry they are no longer available.

Although the 49 looks stronger with its double rings etc I've seen any number come to grief in use (split chrome rings, warped metal spools, twisted reel seats and wonky gear alignment). The 349 is in a different class though - very nice reels.

The 130 spins better than many similar size reels because, I dare to say, it was built with a little more care and precision.
