PacBay A8 seat - durabilty question

I would like to hear from people who have used the PacBay A8 Big Game seat. Specifically, how they rate the anodizing for durability. I don't want to start a war - I know a lot of site sponsors carry Pac Bay stuff. Offline emails are fine, and very much appreciated.

Good stuff, their anodized stuff holds up as well as any I've used, though since moving from Florida I don't spend much time in the saltwater. Their TiGold finish seems to work better in a salt or brackish water environment than the gold finish that is on Fuji and other guides/reelseats I've used. I've had zero problems with any of their products.

I use A8 seats from pac bay and forecast in the saltwater almost daily here in SE alaska. Never had a problem.
