Highfield Patrol 460s are Key
In this video Santiago Lopez, the Finish head coach at Helsingfors Segelklubb (HSK), gives a testimonial as a professional using the Highfield Patrol 460.
Actually, the team relies on two Patrol 460s equipped with Mercury F50 EFI outboard engines.
For him the Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) serves as an invaluable asset in preparing the Finnish sailing team for their upcoming international championship endeavours.
Among the sailors benefitting from this setup are Iiris Sepponen and Helmi Vauhkonen from HSK, along with Felix Impivaara from HSS.
This video was published on the Highfield Boats YouTube channel and I’ve published many other videos of the Highfield brand here on RIBsONLY.com.
Proud to share that Highfield is a good Friend of RIBs ONLY.
