The Highfield Ultralite UL220 is perfect for those who want a hard-bottom tender that’s as easy to manage as it is durable.

A small yet capable outboard motor of up to 5hp provides the power you need for short excursions or harbour use.Â
The Highfield Ultralite UL220 is crafted from corrosion-resistant aluminium and reinforced with ORCA® Hypalon or PVC tubes, ensuring resilience in various marine environments. An anti-slip deck, full-length keel guard, and robust rubbing strake provide long-lasting durability, while practical features like a self-draining deck, lifting points, and a removable seat make it as functional as it is compact.
