I tighten down my drags and rinse with freshwater, wipe down with a rag, and then store with the drags loose. I realize that this doesn't do much for the internal parts. I think the main thing is not to let the reel submerge in salt water at all (including puddles in the hull or on the deck). This can be especially challenging when going through surf and I often put my reels in a bag when going through medium to large surf. I have had real good luck with a Shimano Cardiff. It seems to stay pretty clean internally and is real easy to open up and clean.
