Highfield

For the third consecutive year, Highfield is at the heart of the Route du Rhum – Destination Guadeloupe adventure. True to the spirit of pushing boundaries and high standards of this legendary race, the brand will deploy an impressive fleet of 58 rigid inflatable boats, entirely dedicated to safety at sea during the most intense moments: the grand departure and the arrival of the skippers.
To support this unwavering commitment, Highfield has created an exclusive “Route du Rhum – Destination Guadeloupe 2026” series, designed for action and performance. It includes Patrol 660, 700, 760, and 860 models, as well as Sport 660, 700, and 760 models, not forgetting a Sport 900 specially entrusted to race control. All are powered by Suzuki, a trusted partner, to meet the extreme demands of the event.
These exceptional vessels are now available for sale under preferential conditions and will be handed over to their future owners after the race, imbued with history, emotion, and mythical nautical miles.
About Highfield:
Since its creation in 2011, Highfield has established itself as the global benchmark for aluminum-hulled tenders and RIBs. With nearly 54,000 boats delivered worldwide, the brand now holds the top position in its segment and plays a major role in the market for vessels of 5 meters and over.
At Highfield, performance and robustness are not options: they are a hallmark. A solid and uncompromising design philosophy that inspires confidence in both recreational boaters and professionals, and that allows you to go further, where others still hesitate.
It is this proven reliability that has led the biggest international sailing events to trust Highfield for their on-water support systems. From the Vendée Globe to the Invictus Games, from the Pan American Games to the Extreme Sailing Series, including the ORC, TP52 and of course the Route du Rhum circuits, Highfield is everywhere the sea pushes the limits.
