My take, find yourself a used penn 30W II. They can be found used for under $300 in good shape. Then take it to a pro to have it clean and service if you can't do it yourself.
Now about drags and offshore fishing.
65lb line, the most you want to set the drag at is around 17 lbs pull. Reason is that the more line one has out, the more the drag will increase.
As far as a two speed for snapper, WTF? You got to be kidding.
Grouper, yes due to deep dropping.

Not really for snapper, my biggest mangrove (just over 10#) was landed on a calcutta 200. I don't need one for snapper, I meant that ill also use it for snapper.
I just want a 2 speed.
The guys I go with just got a pretty large boat. So I'm gonna be needing to upgrade tackle to chase the even bigger fish.
