This Leeder 28ft Flybridge had the heavy old Volvo Penta Motor removed and had a complete repower carried out by Hitech Marine
A Fuel injected Mercruiser Multipoint V8 engine was installed and coupled up to a Bravo 2 drive with a large diameter prop.
This Repower has resulted in a lighter, faster and more economical engine solution. Reducing the engine weight has added to the drivability of the vessel and the increased reliability means that the owners get to use their boat more often with far greater confidence
This heavy hull now gets onto the plane with ease and when opened up can achieve speeds exceeding 28 knots.
The owner is so delighted with his decision to Repower his Mercruiser engine with Hitech Marine and sent us the following Customer Testimonial...
"The Performance is absolutely fantastic, Its like owning a new Boat. Best of all is the fuel consumption, from 80 litresp/h to 30 at the same speed, over 28knots. She handles like a dream in the river or the ocean"
