2026 Highfield Ultralite 240LT

The Highfield Ultralite 240LT is a lightweight runabout built around a rigid aluminum hull paired with large-diameter inflatable tubes. At just 74 pounds, it ranks among the smallest in the Highfield range, yet the 17-inch tube diameter delivers stability and buoyancy suited to couples or minimal loads. The hull is constructed from 2.5mm marine-grade aluminum with a powder-coat finish, while the tubes use Valmex® PVC 1100 Decitex or Orca® Hypalon material assembled to close tolerances.

The boat's minimal weight makes it genuinely portable—it can be launched and recovered by a single person and easily carried on a roof rack. This combination of light weight and durable hard-hull construction offers an alternative to soft-bottom tenders while maintaining strong structural integrity. The straightforward design keeps unnecessary complexity out of the boat while incorporating practical standard accessories, making it an efficient platform for light-duty recreational use.
