The Highfield Sport 520 is a superb family cruising RIB, combining exhilarating performance, exceptional handling and a high level of onboard equipment. Powered by a Honda BF100 outboard and with seating for up to 10 people, it offers an impressive blend of performance, comfort and practicality. Part of Highfield’s acclaimed Sport range, the Sport 520 is designed as a versatile all rounder for days out on the water, family cruising and water sports. Its 24° deep-V hull cuts confidently through the water, delivering a smooth, controlled ride and sublime handling, even in more challenging conditions.
