2026 Highfield Patrol 860

The 2026 Highfield Patrol 860 is a 28-foot aluminum rigid inflatable designed for extended cruising in demanding conditions. Its hull is built from 5 mm 5083 aluminum plate with 6 and 10 mm stringers, featuring a deep V design with wide chines and large-diameter tubes that deliver high maneuverability and a stable, dry ride in rough water. Twin Yamaha or Mercury outboards totaling 600 horsepower provide the power.

The boat's modular construction allows flexible interior configuration to suit different uses, from passenger transport to commercial operations. It can accommodate up to 20 people and is engineered to carry substantial loads while achieving plane with relatively modest power for its size and weight capacity.

Built for durability and reliability in harsh marine environments, the Patrol 860 combines safety-focused construction with the practical design needed for serious distance cruising and professional service.
