The All New ADV7 from Highfield Boats: Is it a RIB?

The ADV7 from Highfield

What I can say is that it’s not your average rib. Not your typical Highfield.

Based on the video above and the photos provided to me, I see similarities to a RIB, but also differences.

It seems that the air-filled tubes serve a different purpose, as they are positioned high above the waterline.

It’s a type of crossover, as this model is prominently featured with its own dedicated menu button on the company’s website.

Its deep-V hull, expertly crafted with vacuum-infused composite by the award-winning Vom Designs, guarantees exceptional performance and handling.

The company already designing a bold, modern console for Highfield’s Patrol boat collection.

According to the press release, powered by a 150hp engine, this ADV7 from Highfield effortlessly surpasses 30 knots—and with a 250hp, it rockets to nearly 50 knots.

And the Adv7’s tube offers unmatched security and buoyancy—rarely found in the adventure boat market, so the info states.

Proud to share that Highfield is a good Friend of RIBs ONLY.
