2026 Highfield Classic 260

The Highfield Classic 260 is a compact aluminum runabout measuring 8 feet 6 inches with a 5-foot 6-inch beam. Powered by a single 15 hp Yamaha or Mercury outboard, this boat seats four people and is built around a durable aluminum hull reinforced with a full-length keel guard. The aluminum construction keeps weight low, allowing efficient performance from the modest engine.

This design prioritizes practical functionality. The boat handles shallow water and beach landings well, making it suited for exploring protected waters and coastal areas. The finish combines a workmanlike build with a clean appearance, reflecting its purpose as a hard-working tender rather than a styled luxury craft. The lightweight construction delivers usable performance for a boat in this class, paired with the durability needed for regular use in variable conditions.
