What parts of the MK 50ll SEA could break?

[MexicanGulf]

Hi, I'm going on a fishing trip that will last about 2 months. I will bring my 4 makaira 50 SEA with me. I would like to bring some spare parts with me to avoid wasting time due to any damage resulting from very intense fishing sessions with fish over 300 kg. In your opinion, which spare parts should I bring with me to be safe? Could you possibly give me the codes and details of a good online shop where I can buy everything?

Buy another Mak50Sea and take it as a spare. If something major fails on one of them, sub it out for the spare.
If something fails on another reel, then you have an entire donor reel of spares to swap in, as long as the same part doesn't fail twice.

I would start with pinion bearings and spool bearings.   Also a complete set of tools, grease, oil, and line.  Don't forget to do a pre-fishing service greasing screw holes, drag washers, reel foot, etc.  Bill

And a small tub to contain things during a field repair.  2 months!!

someone of good will could write the codes of the recommended parts, I'm at work now. I would like to place an order to have the spare parts as soon as possible. Thank you!!!

A spare reel would be a good plan A probebly along with the spare rod.
I have owned my Mak50' for about 12 years now and the only issue I have had was a side brushing screwing out very slightly causing the reel to become stiff to turn. So I would suggest a good set of tools, also a spare carbon drag plate ( I had the drag plate on a 16 need replacing , some cals grease,  maybe a spare clicker switch-my mate had a couple of switches fail probebly due to not washing down each day and not lubricating.after 2 months solid fishing for big fish if they have been emptied a few times on long runs, I would strip the braid and wash and re wax the spool- see BHP tackles recommendation for waxing before filling with braid. I have found slight corrosion on the spools 2 of my 10 Makaira's after stripping them after about 8 years.

Seriously. The part number you want is MK-50IISea. If I was going on a 2 month long trip chasing giants I would consider getting 2, even. In that short a space of time, assuming the reels are pre-serviced and immaculate before going, you're just as likely to break something completely random than to do the "common" service parts like bearings.

A thousand thanks!!!! I don't have the right words to thank you. you were wonderful!!!!

[MexicanGulf]

one last question, I don't live in the United States of America, do you know of an online store that could provide me with the parts I need? of course I am willing to pay what there is to pay.

[boon]

A thousand thanks!!!! I don't have the right words to thank you. you were wonderful!!!!

Sorry, don't thank me too soon. I was being silly, my apologies. That is a list of every single part in a Makaira.

The point I am trying to make is that it is very hard to predict what parts might fail in a short period of time fighting large fish. The best and easiest way for you to cover any eventuality is to take a complete reel.

Apologies again if that was not clear.

[MexicanGulf]

However, you helped me a lot. Thank you !
