Leeder 650 (opinions)

gents- was wondering if anyone who has been in or owns a Leeder 650. Just after an opinion on ride and handling (particularly in rough water) and also any faults these models may have?

I'm interested in both inboard and outboard models.

cheers/Ben

oldies had a Leeder 650 with a 350 chev sterndrive, the boat was beautiful to drive and cut through the water very well, better than my cruisecraft. did 43 knots flat out and sounded good doing it too, I wouldn't hesitate having another one or one of the new wildcat/tomcat models either!

thanks- I was looking at one with a new outboard/pod conversion but just found out its sold. I'm also considering finding an inboard version in good nick and re-powering with a new 5.0 V8 mercruiser.
