2026 Highfield UltraLite 290SS

The Highfield UltraLite 290SS is a 9.5-foot aluminum runabout built for efficiency and practicality. Designed to accommodate up to four people, it handles a 15 hp engine and delivers responsive performance in a compact footprint. The "Space Saver" designation reflects its streamlined tube design, which reduces overall width while maximizing usable interior room—a benefit for those seeking the durability of a hard hull without the weight of traditional small craft.

Construction centers on a 2.5mm powder-coated marine-grade aluminum hull paired with high-quality PVC or Hypalon tubes assembled to tight tolerances. The result is a boat that remains light enough for easy launching, retrieval, and transport by a single person, whether via roof rack or trailer, yet robust enough for regular use.

The layout is straightforward and unfussy, with minimal clutter and thoughtful standard equipment throughout. This combination of simplicity, durability, and portability positions the UltraLite 290SS as a capable and economical choice for shallow-water exploration, day cruising, or tender service.
