I use a 651C5 for hauling snapper and other assorteds up 20-50m cliffs. Holds 600+m of 15kg mono. Good as winches, but if you're planning on quick retrieves to excite pelagics you'll need to look elsewhere than this model.
You might need a rod with the larger "Alvey" 1st guide too as they get a bit of a spiral on when casting. I've not tried mine on a standard beach rod but have drawn blood from the whiplash!!!
Simple construction, so there's very little to go wrong with them.
