My old man has had a MP-153 for over 15 years now, it has been retrieved by diving to the bottom of the lake (by yours truly - dutiful son that I am) used to paddle the dinghy in a few times, cycled for a week straight while covered in, as Johnny Cash says, "the mud, the blood, and the beer" and not once, in the whole time, do I recall him cleaning it other than running a pull-through up its pipe. Tough as, and rough as.
@upnorth uplander has one too, his is the first one I have seen jam, last season. He's obviously rougher on the gear than my old man is...
