What sets Senator Boats apart?

With around 54,000 boats delivered globally since the brand’s beginning in 2011, Highfield Boats is now the world’s number one in the RIB tender sector and a global player in the 5 metres + sector

Performance and strength have always been at Highfield’s core. The brand has focussed on these two key values above anything else. Highfield’s hulls are dry-riding, very seaworthy and always over-built.

The heavy-duty approach to design and build allows both leisure and commercial owners to have the confidence needed to go that extra mile and to tackle conditions avoided by many others.
